Former Super Junior member Kangin is being praised after it was revealed that he played a crucial role in saving the life of comedian Lee Jinho, who recently collapsed due to a severe brain hemorrhage.
According to an exclusive report on April 14, the incident occurred earlier this month when Kangin attempted to contact Lee Jinho by phone. At the time of the call, Lee Jinho was reportedly losing consciousness. Despite his condition, he managed to answer and briefly inform Kangin of his situation.
Sensing the urgency, Kangin immediately contacted emergency services. Paramedics quickly arrived and transported Lee Jinho to a hospital in Seoul, ensuring he received treatment within the critical “Golden Time.”
An industry insider revealed, “Lee Jinho collapsed in the yard of his home and suffered a serious fall. Thanks to Kangin’s call, he was taken to the hospital in time.”
Lee Jinho is currently being treated in the intensive care unit, and sources indicate that his condition remains serious. Another acquaintance shared that the hemorrhage is not minor and that he may require long-term treatment.
The situation is further complicated by financial difficulties. Reports state that Lee Jinho has been in arrears on approximately 28 million KRW in health insurance payments since 2023, allegedly due to debts linked to illegal gambling and a halt in his entertainment activities. As a result, he is unable to fully benefit from national health insurance, significantly increasing the burden of his ICU medical expenses.
The news has drawn widespread attention, with many praising Kangin’s quick response as a life-saving act. Amid ongoing concerns about Lee Jinho’s health, the incident also sheds light on the importance of timely emergency action—and the difficult realities some entertainers face behind the scenes.
