Explaining her appearance on 'You Quiz,' Park Mi-sun candidly stated, “There's been so much fake news, and I came on here to report that I'm alive.” The upcoming episode is set to feature her honest account of her treatment journey, the source of her courage to return to the public eye, and her newfound perspectives on life.
