Sechskies’ Ko Ji Yong reunites with Lee Jai Jin after recovering from liver scare
Ko Ji Yong reunited with Sechskies teammate Lee Jai Jin and shared the moment on social media after regaining his health.
On July 24, Ko Ji Yong uploaded a new photograph to his personal social media account alongside the caption:
Ko Ji Yong: “A Friday reunion with Jai Jin hyung after a long time”
The newly released photo captured Lee Jai Jin casually hanging out with Ko Ji Yong, with both members flashing warm and relaxed smiles at the camera.
Ko Ji Yong originally made his debut as a member of Sechskies in 1997 before stepping away from the entertainment industry to pursue a career as a businessman. He later married family medicine specialist Dr. Heo Yang Im in 2013 and welcomed their son, Seung Jae, the following year.
Starting in 2023, Ko Ji Yong sparked widespread public concern regarding his well-being due to a sudden and drastic weight loss. He previously appeared on the KBS 2TV variety show House Husband Season 2 to candidly reveal that he had been hospitalized two years prior due to dangerously high liver enzymes and overall declining liver function, explaining that his weight dropped to 63 kilograms at the time but reassuring fans that his health has significantly improved since then.
