Actress Hwang Shin-hye will appear on a broadcast alongside her younger brother Hwang Jeong-eon, who is now working as a mouth painter after overcoming quadriplegia.
In the KBS1 variety program "Hwang Shin-hye's Let's Live Together," airing on the 5th, the story of siblings Hwang Shin-hye and Hwang Jeong-eon will be revealed.
Hwang Jeong-eon has been painting with his mouth for about 30 years as a mouth painter. On this broadcast, actress Yang Jung-ah, who visited Hwang Jeong-eon's solo exhibition alongside Hwang Shin-hye, was moved to tears after witnessing his dedication and sincerity in his artwork.
Actress Choi Myung-gil, a close colleague of Hwang Shin-hye, and singer Kim Wan-sun also visited the exhibition to admire Hwang Jeong-eon's works.
The broadcast will also show Hwang Shin-hye by her brother's side, helping him move around and checking his appearance.
Hwang Jeong-eon was healthy enough to enlist in the Marine Corps but suffered an unexpected accident at age 29 and was diagnosed with quadriplegia. Recalling that time, Hwang Shin-hye's mother said, "Why isn't there a medicine that stops tears?" while reminiscing about those difficult days.
Hwang Jeong-eon shared that during his hospitalization after the accident, whenever Hwang Shin-hye had no filming schedule, she stayed by his side all night to care for him. He also cites her as the person who guided him onto the path of becoming a mouth painter.
Previously, in February, Hwang Shin-hye appeared on "Shikgaek: Heo Young-man's Hundred-Year Journey," airing on the 2nd, and revealed her younger brother's story.
At that time, Hwang Shin-hye said, "My younger brother was in a traffic accident at age 29 and injured his neck. He has no nerves below his neck, so he paints with his mouth."
Hwang Shin-hye continued, regarding her sister-in-law's role after the accident: "I have learned and reflected so much by watching my sister-in-law. Thanks to her, (my brother) has been able to keep painting until now. I believe an angel descended into our home," expressing her gratitude.
The story of siblings Hwang Shin-hye and Hwang Jeong-eon will be revealed on "Hwang Shin-hye's Let's Live Together," airing at 7:40 p.m. on the 5th.
