In this episode, Steve addresses concerns raised by his friends about dark undertones in his recent posts.

Emphasizing the importance of living fully and not simply surviving, Steve insists he will continue his activities and encourages his viewers to get regular health check-ups. He pledges to keep his audience updated on his medical progress and underscores that this announcement is not for pity, but to inspire others to take care of their health.
