Even best friend Kim Hyung-ja didn't recognize her... '87-year-old' Jeon Won-ju says the same thing 20 times → says "I don't remember" in 10 minutes ('Unforgettable 2')
This is not the first time Jeon Won-ju has been diagnosed with mild cognitive impairment. In 2013, on KBS2’s *Yeoyu Manman*, she underwent a dementia test after stating that she had difficulty recognizing faces; although her brain was healthy for her age, she was diagnosed with mild cognitive impairment based on the cognitive test. She received the same diagnosis on TV Chosun’s *Perfect Life* last April. At the time, she revealed that she had developed a habit of taking notes because she could recognize faces but could not recall names.
Born in 1939, Jeon Won-ju debuted as a voice actor in 1963 through the first open recruitment of Dong-A Broadcasting and has since been active as an actress.
