Korean beauty vlogger's cancer journey goes viral - BBC News

South Korean beauty vlogger Dawn Lee was diagnosed with lymphoma, a type of blood cancer, in February.
The 29-year-old has been sharing her experience of chemotherapy on KZread, with one video attracting almost four million views.
She told the BBC she was worried at first about sharing content that was not "pretty", but hoped her videos would help others in a similar situation.
Produced by Olivia Lang and Julie Yoonnyung Lee. Filmed by Junseo Yang.

    People admire bravery, especially in the face of something much scarier than ourselves. Plus, in this case she has cancer, and a lot of people have either had it themselves, have it, or have had someone they know and love have cancer. So it's a way of seeing your own journey through another's. What I don't understand is how people can watch this, then type cruel comments or stupid ones based on their political agenda underneath.
