The late singer Shin Hae-chul is approaching the 10th anniversary of his passing on the 27th, and his children recalled memories with their father.


On the 16th, Shin Hae-chul's daughter Shin Ha-yeon and son Shin Dong-won appeared on tvN's "You Quiz on the Block." The two spent time reminiscing with the MCs in honor of their father's 10th anniversary.


On that day, Shin Ha-yeon said, "Sometimes people recognize me," adding, "They tell me, 'Shin Hae-chul was my youth.' Some even show tears, which I appreciate, but since it's a happy occasion, I hope they feel joy." Shin Dong-won explained, "Many people don't recognize me because my sister looks so much like our father," and added, "I take after my mother." Then Shin Ha-yeon added, "My younger brother also has memories of our father from the 'Muhan Gyedo' days."


Shin Dong-won continued, "I was seven years old, and I vividly remember the moment I heard that my father had passed away," recalling the day the late Shin Hae-chul left this world 10 years ago. He said, "I was playing in the living room with my sister when my mother came in crying and said, 'Father has passed away.' My mother and sister cried a lot, but I did not cry at that time." He added, "I was too young to understand what death meant. I didn't understand the situation, and I didn't cry because I didn't really know what it was."



He also mentioned, "As time passed and I grew up, I became curious about what kind of person my father was, and I missed the times when the four of us were together, so I searched my father's name on the internet." At the same time, he confessed, "I felt a bit unfair thinking, 'Why do I have to learn about my father by searching for him?'"

Meanwhile, the late Shin Hae-chul underwent surgery on October 17, 2014, at a hospital in Songpa-gu, Seoul, due to complications from intestinal obstruction. It was revealed that the attending physician performed a stomach reduction surgery, folding and reducing the stomach, without consent. However, even when Shin Hae-chul complained of pain, the physician claimed it was a "common post-surgery symptom" and did not take further action. His condition worsened, and he passed away at 8:19 p.m. on October 27, just ten days after the surgery. On October 24, 2016, the prosecution sought a two-year prison sentence for the attending physician on charges of professional negligence resulting in death.
