Baekga expected to fully recover from brain tumor by May!

Posted by lawlietta4 pts Thursday, February 25, 2010

Good news - it looks like Koyote's Baekga, who was diagnosed with a brain tumor in October, is on his way to full recovery! As many know, Baekga underwent a successful surgery just over a month ago in January. Recently, Baekga called into MBC Quiz to Change the World and Kim Jong Min, revealing that a doctor had told him during a post-operation check-up that he was making good progress toward recovery. The guest & cast reportedly applauded in relief after Baekga revealed the good news. When asked what he wanted to do after fully recovering, Baekga replied, "I'd like to be able to perform on stage with Koyote again," showing that his bandmates were always in his thoughts even during times like this. Today, a representative of Baekga said,

"Baekga's health is stable right now, and he is recuperating. His first post-surgery check-up indicated that he was making good recovery progress, but they will still pay close attention to him, as this operation was completed in the cerebrum of the brain. He hasn't recovered completely yet, and his recovery progress will be monitored until May. After that, we can be sure that he has fully recovered."
A rep from MBC revealed the cast's relief regarding Baekga's recovery, saying,
"We were finally able to hear Baekga's voice after such a long period of time. We could tell that he was improving just by hearing his voice. Although the call was short, we learned of Baekga's current status. He also expressed gratitude for his Koyote groupmates who have been the source of his strength during his surgery operations."
It's great to see Baekga taking steps toward recovery, hopefully we'll see him fulfill his wish & be back on the stage with Koyote soon!
