Park had shared Jan. 19 how she spent a week in the intensive care unit after “what started as tonsilitis spiraled into critical septic shock” and “infected and affected several” of her organs.
Park fell ill while on vacation with her boyfriend and Emily in Paris co-star Paul Forman, who supported her throughout the ordeal.
“I am grateful that my health has improved despite what we had initially been told,” Park said. “Grateful most of all to @peforman for being unconditionally by my side through all of this. You calmed my fears and held me through ambulances, three foreign hospitals, a week in the ICU, scary ERs, countless scans and tests and injections, excruciating pain, and so much confusion all while we were alone on the other side of the world far from those we know. I love you Paul. More than I can ever say.”
Park plays Mindy Chen on Emily in Paris.
