The "grandfather" of the family is the No. 1 in crisis, the company is in disbelief, fans only know how to pray?

The news that Lee Soon Jae - who is known as the "Grandfather of the Nation", suddenly deteriorated in health, had difficulty walking and had to miss the award ceremony made fans worried.

Accordingly, Korean media reported that Lee Soon Jae was suddenly absent from the Korea PD Awards on April 15, despite being honored in the Best Actor category. This makes the audience suspect that his current situation is not good.

Very quickly, Lee Seung Hee - CEO of Lee Soon Jae's management company, revealed the reason why the veteran star could not attend the award ceremony because of health problems. "He is not well, he needs support and encouragement," the CEO shared. On social media, many speculations continue to erupt and fans are concerned that Lee Soon Jae's condition may be more serious than what has been announced.

After that, the management company was forced to speak out again, saying that although the 3X actor is not battling a specific disease, he is suffering from serious muscle loss, especially in his legs, which makes it increasingly difficult to walk. He is currently resting and rehabilitating.

While some viewers were comforted by the company's statement, many others could not breathe a sigh of relief because of concerns about their age and the problems Lee Soon Jae had encountered in the past. Last year alone, the "national grandfather" of the Korean screen had to withdraw from the play "Waiting For Godot" due to poor health, even suspending live performances.

Lee so Jae's last public appearance was in January during the KBS Drama Awards. Where he brought the audience to tears with his touching speech after winning the Daesang Award for his role in "Dog Knows Everything". Since then, the veteran star has almost not reappeared, making many people ask the question "is the national grandfather really okay or what is the management company hiding?".

Lee Soon Jae was born in 1934 and started his acting career in 1956. He is one of the great trees of Korean film and television. Over 7 decades of dedication, the veteran star has appeared in countless large and small works, but the most bold mark for many generations of audiences both Korean and Vietnamese is the role of the grandfather of the same name, in the hit sitcom series "Family is No. 1".

This character in the film not only brings laughter but also hides many humanistic messages about family affection, generation gap and sympathy between people. All 3 parts of the work have very high ratings, but many viewers are still impressed with parts 1 and 2 because of the presence of Lee Soon Jae.

For a long time, the "National Grandfather" has been praised for his relentless dedication to acting. Screenwriter Choi Yeo-jung once recounted that, during a Le Père performance in 2012, the veteran star was unfortunately injured on stage but completed the play with just a piece of tape, not letting the audience down.

Currently, even though she is over 90 years old, Lee Soon Jae still wants to continue acting until she can no longer step on stage. It is that spirit that makes fans even more sad when the actor is absent from an award ceremony - something that rarely happens throughout his career, even when encountering an event or personal trauma.

Many viewers believe that Lee Soon Jae's condition can be very serious. However, they still hope that the veteran star will soon recover and return to the world he has been associated with for decades. The Korean public and fans across Asia are also sending health wishes to him.
