Actress Kwak Seon Young is opening up about the terrifying experience of being in an elevator that fell while she was with her young son.
On the fifth episode of SBS’s variety show “Geojang Hang Jun,” which airs at 9 p.m. on November 12, actors Heo Sung Tae, Kwak Seon Young and Lee Min Ki appear as guests.
On the show, Kwak Seon Young reveals that she once suddenly experienced a fall while riding an elevator with her young son. She explains the situation, saying, “The elevator I was riding with my young son fell from the 7th floor to the 4th floor.”
She recalls, “There was a jolt, then it suddenly dropped, and then there was a crashing sound and a feeling of something catching.” She went on to share the shock of the moment, saying, “I still remember the moment the elevator numbers changed in slow motion.”
Despite the sudden accident, Kwak Seon Young reportedly responded calmly.
