Kim (not his real name) had lost both his grandmother and mother to liver cancer. They were both hepatitis B carriers. Unfortunately, he and his siblings had also inherited the disease from their mother.

To prevent himself from walking down the same path as his mother and grandmother, he decided to take charge of his own health.

His one advice for people living with hepatitis B, "Don't be reluctant to admit that you have hepatitis B. Research have shown lower incidence of liver cancer with early treatment."

In South Korea, almost 60% of people with liver cancer progressed from hepatitis B1. Hepatitis today can lead to cancer tomorrow.

The “What I Wish I Knew” film series offers a poignant and intimate look into the lives of individuals impacted by hepatitis B across diverse markets in Asia Pacific. Each film serves as a powerful testament to the importance of early detection, proactive management, and the often-underestimated consequences of the disease.
