The Incident: Oh Seung Hwan Wheelchair Transition
The accident happened about 6 years ago during winter. While heading home, Oh slipped on a patch of ice near his apartment's flower bed. The fall resulted in a severe injury to his 5th and 6th cervical vertebrae. Having played basketball for 7 years and later preparing for an acting career, the sudden paralysis felt like his world had collapsed.
From Isolation to TikTok Stardom
Initially, Oh hid his wheelchair during broadcasts, fearing people might think he was "exploiting his pain." However, his parents' unwavering support pushed him toward intense rehabilitation. "If you're going to keep living, don't give up," they told him. This encouragement fueled his return to the public eye. Today, he connects with fans through TikTok, proving that a different physical state doesn't mean a diminished life.
