"Lately, I've caused many people to worry," the caption, as translated by Soompi, reads." "As the seasons are changing, please pay attention to your health, and I wish for only good things to happen to everyone. I will work hard to show you all a brighter image."
It can be recalled that Ji was diagnosed with acute osteomyelitis, an irritation of bone marrow due to bacterial intrusion, on Sept. 13. At the time, he underwent an emergency surgery.
On Sept. 27, a source from Ji's agency Prain TPC revealed to local newsoutlet Sports Chosun, as cited by Naver, that Ji's condition has improved significantly. At the time, the star has finally returned to filming JTBC's "Fantastic."
However, it remains unclear if it is a complete return since Ji only filmed a few scenes. The unnamed source added that the show's producers were extremely considerate and even adjusted all the filming schedule for Ji.
In the 16-episode JTBC drama, Ji portrays a young and aspiring lawyer, Kim Sang Wook. He has a crush on Baek Sul (Park Si-Yeon) after a motorcycle ride with her.
"It cannot be helped that his screen time will decrease," Producer Song Won Seob said. "I think it will be regrettable for Park Si Yeon. However, his character's personality and importance will not change."
Nonetheless, fans can still watch Ji in SBS' "Scarlet Heart: Ryeo." In the historical drama, he plays the direct and earnest 14th Prince, Wang Jung, who is the favored son of the Dowager Empress Yoo (Park Ji-Young).
