Actress Kim Bo-mi has announced that she underwent surgery for kidney stones.

On May 21, Kim Bo-mi shared a lengthy post on her social media, titled "Unfortunate Hospital Experience." In her post, she recounted, "The pain in my abdomen started on my birthday. I thought it would get better, but after attending my birthday party, I had to rush home. When I woke up the next morning, I felt fine, but by around 2 PM, the pain returned, and I felt like I was going to lose consciousness, so I called an ambulance."

Kim Bo-mi described experiencing pain even during the ambulance ride, stating, "Once I arrived at the emergency room, I received three bags of painkillers and finally managed to sleep. The diagnosis was kidney stones. Since it was the weekend, I had difficulty finding a place for treatment, but I eventually received shockwave therapy. However, the stones did not break, and I had to return to the emergency room."

She added, "Ultimately, I was hospitalized, and it turned out that I had kidney stones not only in my abdomen but also in my kidneys, which shocked everyone. Anyway, the surgery went well, and I was discharged today. I will need to rest at home for a while."

Kim Bo-mi also mentioned, "They inserted something like a hose into my body, which will be removed in a month. I am still in a lot of pain, and there is a significant amount of blood when I urinate. Kidney stones are terrifying. Everyone, please be careful."

In 2020, Kim Bo-mi married ballet dancer Yoon Jeon-il, and they have two children together.
