Choi Pil Soon recalled, “My husband collapsed from a cerebral hemorrhage (a type of stroke)”, adding “I was preparing a meal. My husband went up the rooftop at around 6 a.m. but didn’t come down even after 7 a.m. After then, I found him fainting.”
She tearfully said, “I screamed because I was so shocked. A neighbor heard my scream and called 119. My husband woke up after an hour”, adding “If he hadn’t woken up, I would have left this world either”.
