On December 16, Go Hyun-jung sparked concern when she suddenly announced her absence just two hours before the press conference for the Genie TV original drama “Namib.” At the time, her agency explained, “She collapsed in the morning and was rushed to the emergency room. Her health had been deteriorating, and she had collapsed multiple times on set before.”
Later, on December 24, she posted on her account, “Merry Christmas, everyone. Thanks to your concern, I’m feeling much better,” and added, “I can’t express how much strength your kind words have given me.” However, she noted, “I’m still hospitalized,” and promised, “I’ll recover quickly. Have a happy evening.”
After sharing the news of her health decline at the end of last year, Go Hyun-jung greeted fans in the new year, having recovered her health by 2025.
