He also called on the South Korean government and people to work together to create a warmer and more inclusive social environment for Korean artists and ordinary people, pay attention to their mental health, and save them from depression, loneliness and despair.
Park Bo-lan's sudden death also highlights that the awareness and ability of Korean artists to prevent accidents need to be strengthened. A preliminary police investigation revealed that Park was drinking with friends at an acquaintance's house that night.
If the security measures for such private gatherings are not effective, it is difficult to get timely and effective assistance in the event of an accident.
It is suggested that Korean performing arts companies should strengthen safety training and guidance for artists to avoid them from participating in risky private parties. In the event of an accident, bystanders should learn the correct emergency rescue method and contact the emergency center as soon as possible.
In addition, the South Korean government should also set up a better emergency help system to shorten the rescue response time.
Idols are also ordinary people who need love and respect. Let's learn from the tragedy of Park Bo-lan and create a more friendly, inclusive and humane living environment for artists in Korea and around the world.
So that they can shine on the stage at the same time, they can also live happier and more dignified.
