On February 15, Cha Joo-young shared several photos and videos on her social media account with the caption “5 years ago,” revisiting a difficult period in her life.

The footage showed alarming scenes. In one clip, blood from her nose soaked the asphalt ground. Another video, captioned “Over an hour…,” captured continuous bleeding flowing into a sink, highlighting the seriousness of her condition. She also posted a photo of herself receiving IV treatment at a hospital. The revelation left many fans shocked and concerned, as the extent of the bleeding appeared far more serious than previously known.

Last month, on January 25, Cha Joo-young’s agency, Ghost Studio, announced that the actress would temporarily suspend activities due to health reasons.

At the time, the agency stated, “Cha Joo-young has been undergoing detailed examinations and treatment for long-term recurrent epistaxis (nosebleeds). Following medical advice, she has decided to proceed with an ENT surgery that could no longer be postponed.”

They further explained that she is currently in the recovery and monitoring stage after surgery, making it difficult for her to participate in official schedules, including promotional activities, during her recovery period. Fans have since flooded her social media with messages of support, wishing her a smooth and full recovery as she focuses on regaining her health.
