Just yesterday, according to foreign media reports, South Korean singer Gu Hola, a member of the South Korean group Kara, only signed a contract with the Japanese Economic Company in June this year, just released the new album "Midnight QUEEN" on November 13, that is, he committed suicide at 6 pm on November 24, at the age of 28. And this time, only forty days after the death of Korean singer Choi Shirley. If there is no accident, it will most likely be depression again, and it will not be resolved like the Zhang Ziyan case and the victory case.
And this kind of thing, since 2004, has happened more than thirty times in the Korean showbiz circle.
Many people may not understand, the entertainment industry, if it suffered from unfair treatment and unspoken rules and even violence, can completely withdraw, why stay there, let yourself be abused, oppressed, this is completely ignorant of South Korea's national conditions, as a country where successive presidents almost can not end well, the chaebol is the real controller of South Korea, Koreans joke that Koreans can not escape three things, taxes, death, three stars, after decades of development after the founding of the country, all aspects of South Korea have basically been divided by various chaebols, The rising channel is basically blocked, the class is completely solidified, the dream of ordinary Koreans is to enter a large consortium to do a lifetime, the only one that can be counted and can be selected by the Korean people is the rising channel from the class is the entertainment industry, which is also the reason why although there are a lot of unfair phenomena (such as the popular idol can not afford to buy a house for seven years), there are still young boys and girls who have crossed the river carp to pounce on the entertainment circle, and there is indeed a leap of dragon doors, such as An Qixuan, Zhang Dongjian, and the mythical combination, which have become shareholders and bosses respectively. But it is really a very small minority in the minority.
In the past decade, in the Korean entertainment industry, how many people have died to chase their dreams
1. JeonMei Sun, known as South Korea's "national mother", is considered a workaholic and was still promoting her new play four days before committing suicide. Quan Sun-mi, a 49-year-old veteran South Korean actress who has filmed TV series such as "Please Answer 1988", hanged herself at home 20 minutes after talking to her father on the phone, dying of depression.
2. Kim Jong-hyun 27-year-old Kim Jong-hyun died of charcoal burning at home. Before committing suicide, he had sent a text message to his sister, writing: "It has been really hard so far, please send me away, and say hard, this is my last greeting." Death is due to depression
3. Zhao Jinshan, who committed suicide by burning charcoal, died at the age of 53
4, Jiang Douli In 2015, 22-year-old South Korean actress Jiang Douli committed suicide.
5, Kim Hyun-ji In 2015, the 30-year-old South Korean talent show female singer Kim Hyun-ji was burned to death
6, Kim Yoo-ri In 2011, South Korean actress Kim Yoo-ri committed suicide by taking poison, only 22 years old, before committing suicide, leaving a personal page "No matter what I think, I am the only one in this world." ”
7. Song Jishan, a 30-year-old Korean host at the time, jumped to his death at home.
8, Han Caiyuan 31-year-old Han Caiyuan hanged herself at home.
In addition, there are dozens of people such as 26-year-old Zhang Ziyan, lee seo-hyun, captain of the group M.Street, South Korean national actress Choi Jin, Jang Chae-won, Kim Ji-ho, singer U-Nee, actor Zheng Do-bin, who shot "That Kid Is Really Handsome", female singer Ira, Lee Eun-joo, Ahn Jae-hwan and dozens of others committed suicide, which shows the pressure of the Korean showbiz.
If you think this is just a special case of The Korean showbiz, then you are wrong, on September 24 this year, the Korea Statistics Agency of the Korea Daily published a "2018 Death Causes Statistics" showing that 13,670 people committed suicides in South Korea last year, an increase of 9.7% year-on-year. That is to say, in South Korea, 37.5 people choose to end their lives in this extreme way every day, which is far more than the former suicide power of Japan, the highest suicide rate among the 36 countries of the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD), and suicide has become the leading cause of death for young people in their 10s and 30s in South Korea.
South Korea's class solidification, so that ordinary people in South Korea can not see the upward channel, employment difficulties, high housing prices are so that South Korean young people feel desperate, the strange pension system, but also let many middle-level social retirement can only rely on picking up garbage, selling garbage for a living.
The chaebol society creates a deformed structure, and the deformed structure creates a tragic people, and the tragic people can only accept a tragic fate.
I hope that they will go all the way well, and if there is an afterlife, they can truly grasp themselves.
