On November 2, Jokwon shared on his Instagram, writing, "Gaga, who I thought would be 1 year old forever, has now turned 12. As she's gotten older, her eyes have turned cloudy, she can barely see from her left eye, her hearing is getting weaker, and her hair has turned white," updating fans on his dog's condition.
He continued, "It seems my dog has been sick for a while. She suddenly lost a lot of weight and finally showed me signs that something was wrong. During Chuseok, a tumor was found in her small intestine, and she had a major surgery to remove it."
Jokwon explained, "The test showed that the tumor was malignant. She was diagnosed with adenocarcinoma. Because the prognosis is not good, I always rush home to Gaga right after my musical rehearsals and other schedules end."
He added, "The doctors said the cancer cells are spreading faster than expected. Gaga will start chemotherapy soon, right before my first musical performance. As her guardian, I'm going to do everything I can," as he asked fans to keep Gaga in their prayers.
Meanwhile, Jokwon, a member of the ballad group 2AM, will meet audiences in the musical show 'Rent' starting on November 9.
