KBS 1TV's documentary 'Stand Again, The Miracle', narrated by actress YoonA, is set to capture a pivotal moment: 'wheelchair dancer' Chae Soo-min, who overcame paralysis, faces an unexpected challenge during her rehearsal as a one-day weathercaster for KBS 'News 9'.

Scheduled to air on December 17th at 10 PM on KBS1, the episode will feature Chae Soo-min's ambitious attempt to become a one-day weathercaster, coinciding with the anniversary of the Day of Persons with Disabilities on December 3rd. Her journey is fraught with difficulty, as she has no sensation below her chest due to paralysis, making even breathing a challenge.

Chae Soo-min shared her physical limitations, stating, "It's difficult to exhale deeply, and my lung capacity is limited, so my voice doesn't carry as far." Her tension mounted as she was required to stand and deliver the weather forecast using advanced wearable technology on the day of the broadcast.

Upon arriving at the 'News 9' studio for rehearsal, Chae Soo-min watched weathercaster Kang A-rang's skillful demonstration with bright eyes. Despite her nervousness, she was fitted with the cutting-edge wearable device. With the help of others, she stood on her own feet for the first time in a while, remarking, "I can't feel anything," as she cautiously took a step forward.

However, the moment was short-lived as Chae Soo-min's urgent cry, "Wait a minute!" echoed through the studio. Whether she succeeded in delivering the weather forecast independently will be revealed in the main broadcast, showing a scene that even narrator YoonA found surprising.

'Stand Again, The Miracle' highlights the challenge taken by 'wheelchair dancer' Chae Soo-min as she takes another step into the world, with warm encouragement from YoonA's voice. The KBS special documentary will air on December 17th (Wednesday) at 10 PM on KBS1.

Netizens expressed their support, commenting, "Rooting for Chae Soo-min! I hope she succeeds," "YoonA's narration, I'm already touched," and "Her challenging spirit is amazing in itself."
