The police confirmed that he had passed away, and the reason for his death revealed a series of shocking inside stories. The actor, who was exposed for drug-related issues, finally chose an extreme path, leaving a mess and leaving his wife and children with an indelible scar.
South Korean media reported that Lee Sun-gyun was found fainting in a parking lot in Seoul, and the police found traces of igniting fast-burning coal during the scene investigation, which is incredible. The police confirmed that Lee was 48 years old at the time of his death, and what he did before his death seemed to indicate that he had made an extreme choice, and it was suspected that he committed suicide by burning charcoal. A detailed investigation into the cause of death is ongoing.
A series of turmoil in the entertainment industry pushed Lee Sun-kyun to the forefront of public opinion, and drug-related issues became a problem in the final stage of his life. In his last investigation, he confessed to drug-related problems, but his words also revealed inner contradictions and struggles. Previously, he was also blackmailed by the public relations of nightclubs, with an amount of more than 1.9 million, which made him under pressure in legal disputes.
In addition to the allegations of drug use, Lee Sun-kyun's life was also exposed to a cheating scandal, and an illicit relationship with a 29-year-old woman landed him in the entertainment industry. This may have been a factor in his despair, especially when he chose to end it all with his life in the face of accusations and blackmail.
Lee's death sparked deep reflection on his predicament, and the remorse and apologies he repeatedly expressed during his police investigations became the end of his life. In his acting career, he has been highly praised for his works such as "Parasite" and "My Uncle", but the final ending makes people sigh.
The tragedy of this death is not only the departure of an actor, but also a deep reflection on the pressure and predicament behind the star. May Lee Sun-kyun's family get out of their grief as soon as possible, and his passing should also awaken our concern for the inner world of others, so that we can cherish life more and understand and respect every soul who struggles behind the stage.
