In order to prevent the cancer from spreading, she had to give up the fetus and have a hysterectomy as soon as possible. However, Eun-sook made another courageous choice. At the age of 37, her choice was to be a mother. ■ Eun-sook, a patient with cervical cancer, giving birth Eun-sook visited the hospital due to vaginal bleeding at the 16th week of pregnancy.

On July 7th, which is the 32nd week, Eun-sook will undergo a major surgery called a hysterectomy along with giving birth to her baby. Eun-sook is reborn as a mother, not a woman.
