Oh. This is so sad. Again, we have to report the news of another tragic death.
Transgender entertainer, Jang Chae-won committed suicide on October 3rd. Upon hearing the news of the Choi Jin-shil’s death, ‘next Harisoo” told a friend that she understood what she must have been going through. Later that night at 20:17, the 26 year old left a message on her Cyworld stating “I’m sorry mom, next time I’ll do better.” Using the same method, Jang Chae-won was found dead in her bathroom at 22:50.
Rest in peace.
Please….no more.
HOW CAN HER EYES BE SO BIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIG? o_O
This is sad. May he rest in peace. Korea needs to do something about this.
@u_chill, it says, “Hi, I’m a Korean, I am sending this mail to make friends in America. It says that you know Korean, so I am also writing this in Korean. Please reply, I will be waiting.”
RIP.
It’s true that mental disorders like depression are like taboo in Korean.. don’t people there see that this is serous?
You can’t take back suicide..
whoa 4 celebrity deaths in a row.
^ forgot to add, well 3 were actually suicides.
haaah~ please stop this. this makes them look so stupid in taking their own life. geez people you have only one life to live, dont waste it!
Oh my sweet Jesus, what the heck is going on…….another one……..I think someone should look into all this deaths…….I mean this is serious……..how many more…….are probably thinking the same right now……and no one seem to do anything about it…….
what the hell? ya’ll please stop..
Who is this? She looks so plastic…
omg another one !?
well, life is so precious! This kind of tragedy shouldn’t be stopped. Just think many time first before you ended up your life. So please, people, never ever think of committing suicide. Everything has its own purpose so any kind of problem has a solution. Suicide is not the answer. The solution is help from other people. Yes,you can make a name for yourself just in one day but it will perish after many years, so what is the sense of committing suicide at all? Condolence to the bereave family..
-correction—”should be stopped”….committing suicide….
WTF is going in Korean!!!!
damn her eyes are so freaky and ugly T_T
seriously rest in peace
but its annoying how korean stars keep commiting suicide =,=
for a small stupid reason >:/
:/
This may not be over with suicides following a high profile celebrity. Remember when Chinese superstar Leslie Cheung committed suicide in 2003, well there were several Chinese fans of his who committed suicide afterwards. Let’s pray that it stops here. RIP Jang Chae Won~
please no more for realllllllll
wow. that’s sad.
and woah, i’m sorry but. he/she/it has some major baggage going on under the eyes.
really you guys… suicide.. it’s a permanent solution to a temporary problem.. God gave you life and He’ll decide when you die, so until then, suck it up and “take it like a man.” you think your life’s hard? well, you obviously haven’t seen the rest of the world.
What is up with these people? They think it’s a trend? Hellooo… you don’t wake up the next day and move onto the next trend… this is ridiculous… why are these people so fixated on depression and suicide?
I’ve got depression… but death is always the last thing on my mind…
im wondering why korean ppl so easily end their life just like that. come on be strong & bold, u not the only one suffer here, think about ur family, frens..dun keep ur probs to urself, share with someone u trust
that picture scared me
To PopSeoul: I don’t appreciate you labeling a suicide as a “copycat” deal. I mean, a person just ENDED her life. Must you have put the part about copying?
I see some sincerity in this article, but labeling death as copying was too much.
These suicides are getting to be too much. I’ll hope that this doesn’t happen again. Isn’t there anything that anyone can do? Why is suicide becoming such a common occurence. There are usually hardly among Korean celebrities. (I think.)
R.I.P. to all those who have died.
okay kinda scary now..Do they think taking ur life would make u popular?!?!..UR LAME IF SO!!.death takes you no where!!either heaven or hell!!udunno if this will ever be ur last chance as human or living on earth!!live every day like its ur last! NOT MAKE IT UR LAST!some people are fighting for their lives out there while for some is a Joke! ending ur life takes you no where celebs.PLEASE think over it twice.=(
the committed suicide will be a new trend now in korea entertainment I think. so saaad :’(
he looks rly creepy. The eyes are too big…
but anyways…wow….so many korean stars are ending their lives this year! It’s soo sad! RIP all you great entertainers…

some of these people are and
it’s making me SO sad.

she looks like a doll! but her or his?! (i don’t know hehe) bust is really scary! and y korean actors commit suicide in just one snap!? the government should really take this seriously i think most of them has an issue about their debts or loans!
his/her face scared me, really
Condolences to him/her
this has got to stop, please let this stop.
her face its too freakin scary for me to care
There are so many deaths this year, and it hurts to see. Especially when Lee Eon, one half of Monday Kiz, Turtleman, and all those suicides ;-;
Please, I just think that really, SOMEONE needs to live with these people. A manager. Anyone. It’s just….-Sighs.-
I wish these people would understand that they’re loved by SOMEBODY. Even if it’s just some silly fan that’s obsessed with you.
Dang…she killed herself on Yoon Eun Hye’s birthday, and YEH went to Choi Jin-shi’s funeral the day before. I hope YEH isn’t affected too much by this.
Like I said before, I wonder who’s next?
Anyway, RIP Chae-won
whats happening is too depressing.
RIP jang chae won
I am crying, I am hurting. It is too depressing.
RIP.
Although I dont even know her.
Wow, its like a trend in Korea to commit suicide.
NO MORE!
Let’s not make hasty generalizations about this issue as to not trivialize what has happened.
Popseoul labeling this suicide as a “copycat” is irresponsible and insensitive.
People don’t just end their own lives because they felt like it or because it’s a trend. I’m not sure how often people would just spontaneously kill themselves. Let’s give them a bit more credit than that.
I don’t think it’s possible for most of us here to understand it at a personal level but at least attempt to understand the surface and not just go on about our assumptions.
If it’s done for insignificant reasons, please stop keeping tabs and speculating who’s next. You’re sending a mixed message.
I think Popseoul is calling it a “copycat suicide” because it was done exactly the same way as Jin-shil, not because Jin-shil did it first and so she thought it was “cool”
wassemarer!? I don’t no what this blog look like, I just drop by……….thx!
This is so sad. I hope it doesn’t become a trend.
Death by hanging is a very, VERY ugly way to go. The capillaries usually burst in the eyes, causing an unsightly reaction. The tongue swells so much that it protrudes from the mouth. The lips will also swell significantly and turn purple.
All suicide is ugly, really. One thing I don’t think anyone realizes when they set out to commit suicide is that once the body is found, the bowels and bladder will have expressed their contents.
That doesn’t sound glamorous at all, now, does it?
Wao So many deaths in so little time,,, Shocking…. u.u…
I just don’t get it, why people like to kill themself…Look you’re lucky to be human instead of animal, don’t waste it and love every moment of it whether bad or good.
O___o
Not again ~.~ And what was her reason for suicide? >.-<
I really liked her q.q
RIP u.u
oh my god many ppl r committing suicide it’s damn so sad stop this
man… seeing the “omma mianhae” message is so sad…
Tragic and sad.
ummm… looks like in 2004, suicide was the fourth leading cause of death in South Korea, reaching an all time high of 12,000.
http://www.asianews.it/index.php?art=4226&l=en
In 2004, S. Koerea had a population of approx. 48 million people.
Where was everyones anger when those other 11,998 “not so famous” people took their own lives. Looks like only the “so-called beautiful people” get all the attention.
Dangg, he/she looks scareh o-o;;
What is it with Koreans and suicide?! D:
