A YouTuber suffering from a rare disease met singer Lee Hyori by chance on a plane and made unforgettable memories.
On the YouTube channel ‘Daily Yeoni’, which has about 40,000 subscribers, a video titled ‘I met Hyori Lee by chance and deep talk’ was uploaded on the 13th.
Mr. A, who suffers from epidermolysis bullosa, a rare skin disease, said at the beginning of the video, “I was on a plane, and the seat next to me was Hyori,” and “After takeoff, she spoke to me first, and I told her about YouTube, and we decided to film our conversation. He explained the situation by saying, “I suggested it. I also gave permission to upload it.”
At that time, Hyori Lee had a natural conversation with Mr. A with her face without makeup. After Lee Hyori personally framed her camera, she asked, “Are you okay?” and Ms. A blushed, saying, “I don’t normally show my face well. It’s embarrassing.”
Hyori Lee then said, “What are you embarrassed about? My face is ugly right now. I think all women have a complex about their looks,” and added, “Me too. People say they don’t understand (I have a complex too), but in the end, they are tormenting themselves. I’m sick of it.” “I’m sick of it,” he confessed.
When he said, “No matter where I go, I first check to see if anyone is looking at me or not,” Mr. A sympathized, “Because I look like this, I can’t help but pay attention to what other people think. I’m a bit like that too.”

It’s probably the same for you. Ordinary people want to be special, and special people “They want to be normal,” he said.
Hyori Lee also asked Mr. A about the reason for his trip to Jeju Island and his process of fighting the disease, and listened with a serious attitude. In response to Ms. A’s story that she was repeatedly hospitalized and discharged, Hyori Lee expressed regret, saying, “She must be frustrated if she stays in the hospital for a long time.”
When Mr. A complained, “When I was young, I thought, ‘There will be medicine when I grow up, right?’, but the same situation keeps happening. It’s so sad that I have to live like this for another 30 years.” Hyori Lee said, “When it hurts, it hurts, but it hurts.” “If you don’t, everything will be happy, but if you don’t get sick, you will become more greedy. In the end, all you have to do is love yourself,” he comforted.
Hyori Lee said, “Do patients watch (YouTube videos) a lot? I should go home and watch them too,” and when it was time to land, she gave warm support, saying, “Have fun on your trip, and fight even if you’re hospitalized.”
Mr. A said in the video description, “Something unbelievable happened to me. I still can’t believe I talked to Hyori,” and expressed gratitude, “When she talked to me, she looked at me with sincere eyes and focused on me.”
He added, “I am a very introverted person, but he was comfortable and friendly enough to tell me what was on my mind. I am so grateful to Hyori for making such unforgettable memories for me.”
