Bottom line is, the police and South Korean media were to blame. They already positioned themselves from the very beginning to bring a high level celebrity down regardless of facts and investigations. You are guilty until proven innocent but in the meantime, game for all sorts of malicious news spin in public and social media. Justice for LSK.
I completely agree. It's very much about clicks for the media and maliciousness of the netizens. There is no such thing as innocent until proven guilty in the eyes of the media and netizens.
And yet Lee is dead and she's walking around free. Sounds like this is a case of persecution not prosecution. I'm astonished at the unmitigated cruelty towards Lee. A wife has lost a husband, sons a father, parents a son. Forever
I agree. We must know why he felt so hopeless that he had to end his own life. I am gutted. He was at the pinnacle of his career and now he is gone from us. Greetings from South Africa.
That bargirl, the police and the media killed the innocent actor. It was not suicide these people are the real culprit here. The police did the same to GDragon only GDragon was a lot more stronger than Mr. Lee. Sad to say that Mr. Lee became the victim of injustice here. If only help wa extended to him he could be still alive now. I 'm just wondering why the police head was promoted. It was do timely. Do they practice the quota system in the police force just like in my country before as regard to the drug problem here? Just asking???? Poor Mr. Lee truly a victim of injustice so with his wife and children and his parents too! South Korean wake up now!
@@utubesucks9302you should of kept you comments to yourself, but then again your probably in your room in your parents house eating pizza rolls your mom heated up for you......
@@HelenaShaw-y3jthe difference is that actor lost everything at once everyone came at him at once no one gave him room to breath, the police kept hounding him hoping he break and they succeeded, he had a lot more to loose then GD at the time, knetz came at him right away, and his movies and TV show that he had already filmed were shelved, and he lost all of his endorsements and they all came after him for the scandal, they were coming after him for like $10million dollars, no one was listening to him, and I'm pretty sure he didn't have any support from all those friends that should up at his funeral, and the cops are just did a horrible job.....they didn't say that he was being blackmailed till after he past away, they had negative drug tests which they didn't release that information till much later,they leaked information they were trying hardcore to destroy this man, they told the paparazzi and news people when and where the actor was going to be at the police station, they come after celebs that have done drugs hard compared to those that have done more horrible things......
Crazy. I think you got it right the first time. The girl upstairs and the mini madam are in cahoots. They are just continuing their lies which aren’t adding up. Both should be arrested. The police handling the case prior to the actors death should be penalized for violation of actors privacy that led to loss of income. Media and netizen laws should be reviewed and strict penalties be made for bullying. My heart goes out to the actor and family. Pray the actors family be rewarded with justice financially and publicly.
There definitely should be a law for that! It was such a mess of how the case was handled. I could understand if the defendant was found guilty but it never got to that point. Everything was out in the open. So tragic!
Thank you Seoulite for speaking more of this case. The media treated him as a criminal and not keeping the case under wraps, but have traumatized him to his demise. He became the victim in all of this and now his wife and kids are having to deal with this. Lee Sun Kyun and his family deserves justice!
I am so glad that people are speaking out now but I do wish they would have prior to him passing as it may have been preventable. I feel so sad for his family.
The kids are the ones that are just getting to me. He is no longer with them and their mom is probably devasting and those poor kids are probably seeing and hearing of of this. Everything is just so sad.
In this VIP world, Lee Sun Kyun, who came from a modest family, was never accepted as an equal. When the possibility of a scandal struck a chaebol, or chaebol's son or daughter, he was doomed to be the lamb to be sacrificed, as he was famous, creative, talented, but not powerful. Sad!!! Sad!!! #JusticeforLeeSunKyun
There were already many SK entertainers their careers were destroyed by scandals some survived while others took their own lives. The media same as the netizens should be blamed for these, they crucify, bashed with no mercy. Like what they did to Park Yoo Chun, he committed a crime, admitted to it and made amends and was sentenced 2 years suspension. Now, he's in Thailand where he is accepted by Thais while his own country SK and the citizens still despises him. In my country an actor was sentenced 5 years in jail was paroled. Upon his released he was given a drama role in a TV station in my country so he can earn money to begin a new life. Remember these celebrities are human and will commit mistakes and must be given second chance in life. BTW the actor's name who is a senator now, is Senator Robin Padilla.
This is making me so sad and mad. A man lost all hope to live because of something so unnecessary...and his wife and kids now lost their husband and dad forever. These two women should take full responsibility..but even if they do, it's too late, damage is done!!
We as the public need to stand up and help the fight for justice !.!! Also the downstairs (can’t call her a lady) madam is using 1/3 of the money she blackmailed LSK 300,000 won to pay her lawyer in this case! Every penny of that money belongs to his wife and boys! The nerve of her to use one cent of his money she said 1 million won for her lawyer her mom has 1 million won and she doesn’t know what she spent the other 1 million won on! Make her and the trash upstairs pay back every penny. The trash upstairs got 50 of the blood money! Get it back for his boys! They took the boys dad from them and the love of his life (his wife) has lost the only man she loved! Plus find what hana hwang involvement was in the blackmail and drugs! How dare the lawyer accept money they blackmailed LSK for! Us from the states need to know how we can help with the fight! This was also done to PYC !!! He tried twice to take his life! He didn’t know how drugs got in his system! We know how !!!!! HH put them there then used him to cover her sins!!She destroyed his career!! The police made him confess to something he did not do!!KOREA this has to stop!! He has had to leave his own country! Both these men are legends in their country. They have given us so much joy and love with their talents we have to help them and their family’s get justice.
Thank you so much for keeping us updated on the latest of LSK’s case. We really need this and that justice should be rendered to him and his family and close friends and YES us, devoted fans. I thanks again!
You are such a good reporter! This story is so wild. Do you think or know if GD will sue these scoundrels for defamation? My heart goes out to the widow and children. Loyal fan from Texas.❤❤❤❤
I'm glad the actor community is banning together. I'm sure so many of the celebrities are beyond exhausted with the cops, the media, and the netizens. Too many celebrities and actors take their own life because of these things and something needs to be done to make changes. Again, thank you for keeping us all updated!
There is something that keeps occurring to me. If they were not able to prove the guy did drugs, the police probably tried to force him to admit he did do drugs. He did admit he dud take some supposedly without knowing. Do you think the police wanted him to name where he got the drugs from, who else in the star community was using drugs, etc. Why would they leak that audio? I thought it was the woman who leaked that phone call, but someone said it was the police. Why was all this pressure focused on Lee and nothing on the blackmailers while he was alive?
It just gets weirder and weirder!. In the meantime, a whole life was lost! I think the two women obviously made things worse for Lee Sun Kyun, but the majority blame is with the Narcotics Police and their hunger to shame a famous person, forgetting that he was only human.
I"m so glad you covered this case & I hope you will please keep the community updated. Too many "stories" posted all over for everything going on in every story right now, so I tend to stick close to your channel for the most accurate updates for everything. The rash amount of Suicides needs to be looked into. Anytime, anyone. Every aspect of their life needs to be dove into. Online harassment, relationship abuse...whatever it is, people do not jut wake up one morning and decide to check out for no reason. SOMETHING had to build you to that point of helplessness. The guilt and shame left behind for loved ones is endless. It's a indescribable pain that will never be calmed by answers. If we look into these things right away, there may be a better chance of finding a cause. And look, I have lost 2 friends and 1 family member this way, and I do understand that sometimes, something is you is just broken; and your journey may or may not have been able to have been helped, but with no history of mental illness or even a recent bout of physical or mental illness, people just don't do this. My heart can't believe that. If there is undisputed evidence that some played a part in a death, in any way, shape or form, then they should be held responsible. I am not knowledgeable in Korean law so I do not know if the terms 'Manslaughter', 'Negligent Homicide', Criminal Facilitation' are used, or what terms used, but there has to be some type of ACCOUNTABILITY if you are found to be found guilty of playing a part in someone taking their own life. Yes they took their own life, but how hard did someone push them that way? There are cases all over the world of that being the case!!!!!! This man is gone forever, lost to everyone that loved and needed him. Someone needs find a reason. The world needs to do better when this happens.
This just becomes more and more heartbreaking. The life choices Lee Sun-kyun made are between him and his wife, and I'll leave that there. Listening to those phone calls made me feel sick. A man was driven to end his life and all any of them (including the mother and sister) could do was play the blame game. Why are only one of these women in prison? God bless Bong Joon Ho and others. I'm so glad that finally, someone is calling for inquiries into Lee Sun-kyun's death. There's enough culpability to go around, the blackmailers, police, media, and even the industry that blackballed Lee Sun-kyun. May everything hidden be brought into the light, and this very sad situation stop others from going down the same path. Also, reading the other comments left here someone wrote Lee Sun-kyuns wife was left with the debts?? I don't know how it works in Korea, but in Europe, a person's debts die with them. I hope and pray this is the case for Jeon Hye-Jin as this poor woman has enough to contend with already.
This actor did have wealth, I am sure as an international actor their was high payout liability and death insurance. That does not bring this actor back. Did you see the unspoken anger in Joon Woo Song and JJ eyes during the memorial. They were seething with rage. I am sure the artistic community is acting as a block to resolve this, and get new laws in place. Men like bright and shiney things. Add a manipulative bar madam it's a nuclear explosion waiting to happen. Is the Police Chief in on the take not demanding an immediate investigation when the actor filed the report? Thank you so much Sean. EX Cons must never be allowed to work in the bar scene.
Well honestly you just don't go to dirty bars and cheat on wife and children! Then selfishly not thinking what mess you leave you die! If he was a good man father and husband then he would be here still....... that poor lady now has to deal with this cheaters problems!!!
@@rosamota916 Hindsight is a wonderful thing. Unfortunately the majority of “regular” people (yes women too, who do most men cheat with?) are only as faithful as their options. How much more of a temptation is it for “famous” people? With fame/money, there are a *lot* more options. The thing with celebrities; beautiful, wealthy men/women, in their prime. Made a fuss of by thousands of fans. Nightclubs treat them like kings. Great houses, cars, designer stuff, life of luxury. A life some can only dream of. No wonder plenty of poor choices are available to them. It’s insane. It would take a very, very strong personality to resist the temptations that come with fame/money. As for the husband/wife, no one knows what goes on in a marriage except the two involved. Even then there’s his side, her side, and the truth. The life choices Lee Sun-kyun made should have remained between his wife and himself. And absolutely should not have been used to drive the man to his death. Only he knows what circumstances led to those choices, temptations, and midlife crises. Who knows. But *no one* can judge him for them knowing the final outcome. It’s not your business, it’s not my business. It’s no one's business. And out of respect for his wife and children, I won’t speculate further.
Finally they are going to step up and get involved! No matter what the cultural norm is in South Korea, people should not be abandoned by all publicly. They may have given support behind closed doors, but this is the first time I’ve ever seen a head figure in entertainment say something in regards to the investigation and how he was dragged through the mud without evidence! I’m glad it’s happening but it helps that he is an Oscar winning director the first in history! Glad he is using his platform!!!
So true. I was reading that he didn't want to burden them and that is why he did it. But, the kids are in a worse situation with a heavier burden for them to carry without their dad.
@@TheProudWife515 yes!! They are still in such a young age. I remember seeing the oldest was like around 11yrs old or so carried his dad picture and his little brother followed. I hope the media and others give them space and peace.
I’m in the US and following this story with a broken heart, and the more I hear about this story, I think unfortunately, this would or could be developed into an amazing K drama don’t come after me, but it would be interesting to see how a Korean drama would portray all of the victims and the criminals and the justice system in a well developed drama, and at the end of the drama dedicated to Mr. Lee.
Lesson #1. Toxic bar girls have no loyalty. Remember your poor wife. Fix or settle marital problems between yourselves. By dragging in a third party or more, you only invite snakes who will bite you! 🐍 🐍 🐍
Well, you're right in paradise world. You don't know who his wife is. Life is not that simple and sometimes you don't get the chance to settle problems with someone who has mental issues (not saying she has, just saying that sometimes you realise who someone really is AFTER you married them). A divorce is not an easy decision for anyone, particularly when you are a celebrity with children. Leaving your children with someone you cannot trust is a nightmare, thinking your ex could choose or marry someone who will take care of your children, judge you, push your children against you is not easy as well. When a man have children, and is a celebrity, going in front of a judge, to explain that your wife is borderline is very complicated, she is still the mother of your children. And most of men, particularly when they get very busy with their carrier don't get the chance to keep the children. I'm not saying that he made the right decision to go there. Just saying that he might got depressed and needed a break from home. Obviously, he was not that happy there. If you are/had only been surrounded by 'normal' and 'easy to deal' with people, feel lucky because those kinds of people are rare (if they really exist!?) and you live maybe in paradise. I've been working with people who believe me looked like they were good people, but REALLY were psychos. You really need to be strong to resist and not end up crazy. Your advice is only good in a perfect world. You don't know what pushed him to make that kind of decision. You don't know the details. He was, anyway, probably a good man who chose a job to give dreams and joy to everyone and that was generous of him. He didn't deserve to die that early, It's easy to play the morality card here. Do not judge people that easily and that quickly. Life is not a paradise for everyone. Tears and surprises can come anytime to anyone. 😢❤️🩹
Yes!!! Absolutely great news to hear. Thank you for those who are making a stand! Let’s this be a lesson to be careful who you surround yourself with, these bad women drove him to his demise.
Thanks Sean for sharing. It get so so shady even with the money..oh my. My heart goes to his wife who has been left with so much debt i was told and have to take care of her two kids, paying for cancelled contracts and the agony. My question is also how does the Blackmailer knew there was a girl upstairs staying....lol.
If the blackmailers got into the downstairs girl phone they could realize that she has a close friend upstairs. Upstairs girl contacted downstairs girl’s mother to push her case so for the same reason the imaginary blackmailers would contact the d/s girl’s friend from the u/s
Thank you dear..you deserve your own 60 minutes..your report is so thorough. My heart breaks for the family of LSK..and what LSK must have gone through.. Hope this is the end of such tragedy but suspect it won't be.
There are more deeper problem he has that made bad choices of choosing lost his life other than blackmail. I think the last rope is the blackmail. I am really heart broken for him.
You are correct. The blackmail is what gets me. Is the upstair ho the one with the kid? Oh wait, so he filed a lawsuit agains them for blackmail? This is really sick and it's hard to follow for me. Why is there only one in jail? is it because there's more evidence with one and not both?
I am so sad for the difficult decision he has made and knowing he is no longer alive. I believed thousands feeling sad after losing him too. However I am so furious to those who were responsible, the unfair treatment and harassment he received. So cruel. Why was he being targeted.
Just from what I read the same death happened with Jang Ja Yeon, The police officer who investigated Burning Sun Scandal, and now Lee Sunkyun, it is like the same pattern as the first 2. Madam shim could be behind LSK’s case as well.🤷
What a hypocritical, cruel society! Ungrateful. What happens to these people? Are they alienated, living fairy tales? The case was mishandled from the beginning. And where is the "benefit of the doubt"? Even if he was using drugs, he should receive support to treat himself. Shameful and scandalous performance by the police, prosecutors and media. The police protected the criminal and exposed the victim. The world lost an excellent actor, a good person to hypocrisy and misinformation. RIP Lee Sun-Kyun ❤
No matter what they do, they can't bring the excellent actor back. They should have been with him, support him when he was alive. They didn't. They should clear his name now. We want to see his late films that they withdrew.
Thank you seoulite ❤ creative ways to say, during his stay at the burning sun he was assaulted by staff while attempting to help a woman who was being sexually harassed.
Regardless of wether he had a " faux pas or not , its awful he had to pay with his life . Too high a price to pay .These celebrities need some privacy or we are going to continue to loose them.RIP LSK
the k-police should be investigated! in the first place, they leaked what's supposed to be a PRELIMINARY investigation to the media, based on accusations by a person with no credibility, and insisted on pursuing a very public "investigation" all the while each required drug test turned out negative. lee sunkyun was treated guilty until proven innocent, crucified in the court of public opinion, even as it was obvious the police were fishing for evidence against him. were the promotions of the police bosses worth the career and life of a talented actor?
Yes, it does seem like Lee Sun Kyun was a target from the start. Rich celebrity & they waited for him to be vulnerable & rip him off. His adultery is a private matter between him & his wife, NOT between him & social media. Celebrities are human like we all are and make mistakes. What happened to Ji Soo & Kim Seon Ho also tragic. Women telling lies on them led them to be cancelled. The truth has come out, now everyone knows they were lied on but their careers are in shambles. This makes #3.
Calling for the investigation of the truth is too late... Let this tragedy launch a change in how these investigations are conducted so that this will not happen again. Goodness! Look at the magnitude of the price! A senseless loss of an extremely talented actor, talk less of a husband, a father, a son and a friend! RIP Lee Sun-kyun ...
This is a lesson to famous kiddos stay away from attention seeking unknown women at odd hours. Just go home n live your lives. Your family needs you more.
I'm disappointed, angry and sad all at the same time. When public figures and celebrities do things that cause us to second guess their image it's disappointing. But not so disappointing that one cancels them outright. It's just a reality that they are subject to making decisions that work against themselves. I'm angry people like the lady upstairs takes advantage of someone's celebrity status to sway and con them. I'm sad law enforcement is influenced by media and social media. While enforcing the law, they lose their objectivity when they seek to make well know figures examples by humiliating them. Investigating should be limited to finding credible evidence and prosecuting the real crime, not punishing someone for being famous.
The police and media should have investigated the case really well instead of pressuring Lee Sun Kyun and assuming he was guilty. He's dead and those women are walking free. You can't bring back the life that was lost. I hope that they will rectify and correct the wrongs they have done.
My wild guess is that they both were in on the black mail and the "madam" didn't want to give the girl upstairs her cut so they had a falling out. Then the girl upstairs hounded the moon to try to get her daughter to give the upstairs girl the money. Lol
These 2 are dodgy as shit. Both need to go to jail for what they have done. They both deserve each other. Hopefully something good comes out of these artistic community speaking up. Otherwise his died for nothing
I guess this is a good change in the right director, but I wish they had stood up for him when he was alive and going through the hell that he did. I know the industry is brutal, and anyone who would have stood up for him might have been swept up in the hell that he was experiencing, but I wish he had the support from his community as much as he did the international community. My heart is still breaking. I doubt I will heal from this one anytime soon.
I am very glad that people are stepping in to support one of their own. For all we hear about S. Korea having strick laws it seems that some how the criminals get away with it. The governnent is very lacking. No one is keeping track of the country's infastructure example, Halloween when so many died trapped in the street. Also, the country was holding a free concert in a bid to get the 2030 Expo Fair. The government would have caused a huge amount of deaths. Doesn't the government require for permits to be obtained and if so is there any inspections conducted before issuing the permits. Another national shamefull tragedy is the large number of suicides. Doesn't S. Korea have any public service campaigns bringing to the public the tragedy of suicides and public suicide phone numbers?
Regardless of the public programs the government has, it's not really effective due to social/cultural stigma and the prevailing attitudes towards stress management, trauma, addiction, and drug use as a tool to manage said mental health related issues. There's a very surface level attitude towards addressing the issue directly. People would rather stay silent about their problem rather than seek professional help for fear of criticism/ostracism from family and friends. Even if there are public campaigns, majority of the population will largely ignore it unless they themselves will gather the strength to implement societal or institutional (maybe grassroots?) changes to directly address the high rates of self-harm (su1c1de) leading to the loss of a loved one among South Korean citizens.
@@erinlee5936 Hi, thank you. It is difficult to change a societal mindset that's why it's necessary to constantly have these public notices running on the TV, radio, internet, and billboards. Talks held periodically in the schools. It is extremely difficult to get a society as a whole to make changes but one thing that doesn't run out is time.🙏
I'm so glad they're investigating. If someone murdered him, they need to be brought to trial in court. He was such an amazing talent. Korea needs to do better.
Thank for ur hardwork updating about this blackmail scandal🙏 But it seemed like that Kim Nami and her upstairs friend both of them planned it based on Kim Nami's phone call with Lee Sunkyun. I think they both planned it but in the middle of the plan Kim Nami stole the money alone didn't share with that woman upstairs and then she called her mom. And Kim Nami didn't tell her mom and hid her money. That's why she was mad when the upstairs girl called her mom. That's my interpretation🤨 There is no way Kim Nami didn't involve in the plan of blackmailing him. Both of them should get heavy punishment!
We hope Lee Sun Kyun will get justice and all the perpetrators including those who did not properly do their job in investigating will be punished. Lee Sun Kyun may have sin but it is not for them to judge. There is someone higher than us who can judge all our doings, it may be good or bad. And He (God) only knows our heart. Everyone who looked down on him and got easily swayed or believed in negative news and wrote up bad things about him, hope you change and stop doing that. All the negative thoughts or words you share could kill anyone and it might also happen to you. Please keep us updated on this case. Thank you.
Going to the room salon and hooking up with the “Madam” cost Lee Sun Khyun everything, even his life. Was it a mid life crisis? I don’t think you suddenly start going to room salons at 48. He’d probably been doing this for many years and as his fame grew, and his family grew, so did his risk of being found out. This time it was these grifting jailbirds who got their hooks into him. And it cost him much more than just money. It’s a lesson to all the other men living double lives out there.
And comments like yours are what spreads false information, you don't know what happened, you don't know what's the truth you can't just say ohhh he must of been seeing the madam for a long time...... until everything is investigated and proven, don't judge you guys jump on a chance to try to cancel someone
I’m not sure if this will help. Yes the case was handled badly, but this will expose the actor and his family even more. The police will now have to explain why they acted in the way they did and part of me feels the police were trying to conceal the potential ‘affair’ whilst going for the blackmailers. I don’t think they could do both. I also hope they got permission from the wife as she is the one that has to deal with this if anything else is exposed. Just the fact that they are having a press conference already makes me feel uncomfortable.
Reminds me of a “who dunnit” , with lots and lots of characters, red herrings, twists and turns and booby traps. Until, in the last five minutes it all comes together and the culprit is exposed. I think this is headed that way except, there will be many, many culprits . Luckily we have you to navigate this rocky, smoke and mirrors terrain. So glad to hear of the action taken by the artistic community. Looking forward to the next episode.
Espero que o diretor de Parasita consiga reunir muitos atores e atrizes e pedir justiça para Lee Sun kyun. Até agora revoltada com essa Korea, governo e polícia. Incompetentes levaram um homem honesto ao suicídio. Lamentável! 😢
Listening to all this, I wonder: How did Lee Sun Kyun let himself be fooled by these stupid, calculating and cunning women? Unfortunately, this exposes his naivety and some kind of weakness towards women. I think that the net they cast over him, and then became entangled in it, became a cause of additional humiliation for LSK. Perhaps during the last interrogation the police added the problem of blackmail to the slowly unraveling drugs issue, and it was too much for the actor to bear... It's a terrible pity that he didn't have a strong person with him to help him sort it out and get through it. Mentally injured, he was unable to look from a distance and saw no way out of the situation. He was certainly afraid of embarrassment to his family and... he decided to 'escape' in such an irreversible way. Back to these terrible women ---> I hope that the policemen who put so much pressure on Lee Sun Kyun to pursue their own careers will now show themselves and find a solution to this Gordian knot, punish the guilty, apologize to the LSK family and the entire society for their earlier bungling. And everyone will learn from this for the future, especially the media, so that they do not 'kill' people with speculations and pressure! It won't bring us back a great Artist, but maybe we will avoid further tragedies. Finally, I will add that I am a woman myself and I am disgusted by what these two did to Lee Sun Kyun. BTW, in the comment to your previous video, I asked if you knew where LSK died, because maybe you could light a candle on my behalf... (I located this place; in case you didn't know).
If you read comments from Korean netizens with western values, they are sympathetic of LSK while the one that don't speak English still blame the late LSK, blackmail or not LSK has betrayed his wife. Western media highlighted his success story while back in homeland full or drug use and betrayal news.
I wonder if these girls have any remorse or empathy for his death? They may not have pulled the trigger but they definitely helped. They saw a venerable man and destroyed him and his family. RIP chef
He was a good man who was just the so-called typical marriage-weary husband who sought comfort from other women. It's his peril, he could have mended his ways but the circumstances aided in his demise and failure. No One's innocent however in this case, the media, the police, those con artist and there victim. It's so tragic! Men should be wary of illicit liaisons.
What does 1+1 make? Yep 2. Two shitty women, two sets of lies, two chunks of money, and two crimes. The victim, Lee Sun- Kyun is dead. Lock both of em up and throw away the key.
Any life lost is one too many. It appears that the late LSK was caught in the wrong place at the wrong time and thus unwittingly became the tragic victim. I m so relieved that the artistic community is coming together to demand for the truth to be revealed and the right people to be held accountable. It is disturbing when life starts to imitate Art. It should be the other way round. As the process of justice is being carried out, let us still continue to pray🙏 for the soul of the late LSK. He must not be "abandoned" the second time round and this time it is even more critical as it affects the well-being of his soul in eternal life. Please respond to this plea for prayers seriously. Thank you.
Best news so far that the Korean artistic community is requesting a thorough review. This type of shady trick can happen to any celebrity anytime.
Idk how they’ll handle and hide the fact he went to these places insulting his name again.
would they have stood up for YAI. shame
Bottom line is, the police and South Korean media were to blame. They already positioned themselves from the very beginning to bring a high level celebrity down regardless of facts and investigations. You are guilty until proven innocent but in the meantime, game for all sorts of malicious news spin in public and social media. Justice for LSK.
Exactly

@@HelenaShaw-y3jthe difference is that actor lost everything at once everyone came at him at once no one gave him room to breath, the police kept hounding him hoping he break and they succeeded, he had a lot more to loose then GD at the time, knetz came at him right away, and his movies and TV show that he had already filmed were shelved, and he lost all of his endorsements and they all came after him for the scandal, they were coming after him for like $10million dollars, no one was listening to him, and I'm pretty sure he didn't have any support from all those friends that should up at his funeral, and the cops are just did a horrible job.....they didn't say that he was being blackmailed till after he past away, they had negative drug tests which they didn't release that information till much later,they leaked information they were trying hardcore to destroy this man, they told the paparazzi and news people when and where the actor was going to be at the police station, they come after celebs that have done drugs hard compared to those that have done more horrible things......
Crazy. I think you got it right the first time. The girl upstairs and the mini madam are in cahoots. They are just continuing their lies which aren’t adding up. Both should be arrested. The police handling the case prior to the actors death should be penalized for violation of actors privacy that led to loss of income. Media and netizen laws should be reviewed and strict penalties be made for bullying. My heart goes out to the actor and family. Pray the actors family be rewarded with justice financially and publicly.
There definitely should be a law for that! It was such a mess of how the case was handled. I could understand if the defendant was found guilty but it never got to that point. Everything was out in the open. So tragic!
Thank you Seoulite for speaking more of this case. The media treated him as a criminal and not keeping the case under wraps, but have traumatized him to his demise. He became the victim in all of this and now his wife and kids are having to deal with this. Lee Sun Kyun and his family deserves justice!
I am so glad that people are speaking out now but I do wish they would have prior to him passing as it may have been preventable. I feel so sad for his family.
I doubt anyone would've really spoken until he died. That's just how the society is. No one wanted to hear his case until he died.
It’s sad that this came out after his passing - cost his life. Poor wife and kids 😢
True
Well, one thing for sure, this is a huge shady mess! I can't even begin to comprehend what his wife is going thru.
The kids are the ones that are just getting to me. He is no longer with them and their mom is probably devasting and those poor kids are probably seeing and hearing of of this. Everything is just so sad.
The down stairs kept the money even if the upstairs was the blackmailer still both of them are guilty at the same level.
If all of this is so. Yes, you are right. Both of these horrible human being need to get theirs and, apparently one mother.
It’s gonna hard for the corrupt cops to cover for the hell shady Dairy Queen (let’s see her grandpa’s corrupted power)
I am glad that the artistic community is speaking up. This all still rubs me the wrong way. Ty for keeping us updated.
In this VIP world, Lee Sun Kyun, who came from a modest family, was never accepted as an equal. When the possibility of a scandal struck a chaebol, or chaebol's son or daughter, he was doomed to be the lamb to be sacrificed, as he was famous, creative, talented, but not powerful. Sad!!! Sad!!! #JusticeforLeeSunKyun
There were already many SK entertainers their careers were destroyed by scandals some survived while others took their own lives. The media same as the netizens should be blamed for these, they crucify, bashed with no mercy. Like what they did to Park Yoo Chun, he committed a crime, admitted to it and made amends and was sentenced 2 years suspension. Now, he's in Thailand where he is accepted by Thais while his own country SK and the citizens still despises him. In my country an actor was sentenced 5 years in jail was paroled. Upon his released he was given a drama role in a TV station in my country so he can earn money to begin a new life.
Remember these celebrities are human and will commit mistakes and must be given second chance in life. BTW the actor's name who is a senator now, is Senator Robin Padilla.
Interesting fact. Park yoochun was engaged to hwang Hana. he was caught with meth and left sk to live. Wasn't hwang hana also involved in this case?
This is making me so sad and mad. A man lost all hope to live because of something so unnecessary...and his wife and kids now lost their husband and dad forever. These two women should take full responsibility..but even if they do, it's too late, damage is done!!
We as the public need to stand up and help the fight for justice !.!! Also the downstairs (can’t call her a lady) madam is using 1/3 of the money she blackmailed LSK 300,000 won to pay her lawyer in this case! Every penny of that money belongs to his wife and boys! The nerve of her to use one cent of his money she said 1 million won for her lawyer her mom has 1 million won and she doesn’t know what she spent the other 1 million won on! Make her and the trash upstairs pay back every penny. The trash upstairs got 50 of the blood money! Get it back for his boys! They took the boys dad from them and the love of his life (his wife) has lost the only man she loved! Plus find what hana hwang involvement was in the blackmail and drugs! How dare the lawyer accept money they blackmailed LSK for! Us from the states need to know how we can help with the fight! This was also done to PYC !!! He tried twice to take his life! He didn’t know how drugs got in his system! We know how !!!!! HH put them there then used him to cover her sins!!She destroyed his career!! The police made him confess to something he did not do!!KOREA this has to stop!! He has had to leave his own country! Both these men are legends in their country. They have given us so much joy and love with their talents we have to help them and their family’s get justice.
Thank you so much for keeping us updated on the latest of LSK’s case. We really need this and that justice should be rendered to him and his family and close friends and YES us, devoted fans. I thanks again!
You are such a good reporter! This story is so wild. Do you think or know if GD will sue these scoundrels for defamation? My heart goes out to the widow and children. Loyal fan from Texas.❤❤❤❤
I'm glad the actor community is banning together. I'm sure so many of the celebrities are beyond exhausted with the cops, the media, and the netizens. Too many celebrities and actors take their own life because of these things and something needs to be done to make changes.
Again, thank you for keeping us all updated!
This could happen again if it’s not uncovered. Thank you for your work!
LSK was the reason why i got into SK drama...subtle but excellent acting...not OA...may his soul rest in PEACE with all our prayers.
There is something that keeps occurring to me. If they were not able to prove the guy did drugs, the police probably tried to force him to admit he did do drugs. He did admit he dud take some supposedly without knowing. Do you think the police wanted him to name where he got the drugs from, who else in the star community was using drugs, etc. Why would they leak that audio? I thought it was the woman who leaked that phone call, but someone said it was the police. Why was all this pressure focused on Lee and nothing on the blackmailers while he was alive?
Those stinkers😢 writing from Jamaica
That money belongs to LSK family!! And it needs to be returned to LSK wife and sons!
It just gets weirder and weirder!. In the meantime, a whole life was lost! I think the two women obviously made things worse for Lee Sun Kyun, but the majority blame is with the Narcotics Police and their hunger to shame a famous person, forgetting that he was only human.
Absolutely agree!!😢
Exactly
Honestly I wish the police get sued for how they treated this poor man that pushed him to end his life.
God rest his soul
I"m so glad you covered this case & I hope you will please keep the community updated. Too many "stories" posted all over for everything going on in every story right now, so I tend to stick close to your channel for the most accurate updates for everything.
The rash amount of Suicides needs to be looked into. Anytime, anyone. Every aspect of their life needs to be dove into. Online harassment, relationship abuse...whatever it is, people do not jut wake up one morning and decide to check out for no reason. SOMETHING had to build you to that point of helplessness. The guilt and shame left behind for loved ones is endless. It's a indescribable pain that will never be calmed by answers. If we look into these things right away, there may be a better chance of finding a cause. And look, I have lost 2 friends and 1 family member this way, and I do understand that sometimes, something is you is just broken; and your journey may or may not have been able to have been helped, but with no history of mental illness or even a recent bout of physical or mental illness, people just don't do this. My heart can't believe that.
If there is undisputed evidence that some played a part in a death, in any way, shape or form, then they should be held responsible. I am not knowledgeable in Korean law so I do not know if the terms 'Manslaughter', 'Negligent Homicide', Criminal Facilitation' are used, or what terms used, but there has to be some type of ACCOUNTABILITY if you are found to be found guilty of playing a part in someone taking their own life. Yes they took their own life, but how hard did someone push them that way? There are cases all over the world of that being the case!!!!!!
This man is gone forever, lost to everyone that loved and needed him. Someone needs find a reason.
The world needs to do better when this happens.
This just becomes more and more heartbreaking. The life choices Lee Sun-kyun made are between him and his wife, and I'll leave that there. Listening to those phone calls made me feel sick. A man was driven to end his life and all any of them (including the mother and sister) could do was play the blame game. Why are only one of these women in prison? God bless Bong Joon Ho and others. I'm so glad that finally, someone is calling for inquiries into Lee Sun-kyun's death. There's enough culpability to go around, the blackmailers, police, media, and even the industry that blackballed Lee Sun-kyun. May everything hidden be brought into the light, and this very sad situation stop others from going down the same path. Also, reading the other comments left here someone wrote Lee Sun-kyuns wife was left with the debts?? I don't know how it works in Korea, but in Europe, a person's debts die with them. I hope and pray this is the case for Jeon Hye-Jin as this poor woman has enough to contend with already.
This actor did have wealth, I am sure as an international actor their was high payout liability and death insurance. That does not bring this actor back. Did you see the unspoken anger in Joon Woo Song and JJ eyes during the memorial. They were seething with rage. I am sure the artistic community is acting as a block to resolve this, and get new laws in place. Men like bright and shiney things. Add a manipulative bar madam it's a nuclear explosion waiting to happen. Is the Police Chief in on the take not demanding an immediate investigation when the actor filed the report? Thank you so much Sean. EX Cons must never be allowed to work in the bar scene.
Well honestly you just don't go to dirty bars and cheat on wife and children! Then selfishly not thinking what mess you leave you die! If he was a good man father and husband then he would be here still....... that poor lady now has to deal with this cheaters problems!!!
@@rosamota916 Hindsight is a wonderful thing. Unfortunately the majority of “regular” people (yes women too, who do most men cheat with?) are only as faithful as their options. How much more of a temptation is it for “famous” people? With fame/money, there are a *lot* more options.
The thing with celebrities; beautiful, wealthy men/women, in their prime. Made a fuss of by thousands of fans. Nightclubs treat them like kings. Great houses, cars, designer stuff, life of luxury. A life some can only dream of. No wonder plenty of poor choices are available to them. It’s insane.
It would take a very, very strong personality to resist the temptations that come with fame/money.
As for the husband/wife, no one knows what goes on in a marriage except the two involved. Even then there’s his side, her side, and the truth. The life choices Lee Sun-kyun made should have remained between his wife and himself. And absolutely should not have been used to drive the man to his death.
Only he knows what circumstances led to those choices, temptations, and midlife crises. Who knows. But *no one* can judge him for them knowing the final outcome. It’s not your business, it’s not my business. It’s no one's business. And out of respect for his wife and children, I won’t speculate further.
@@rosamota916 Who are you to judge anyone? No one on earth hasn't ever made a mistake or is free of sin, not even you.
Finally they are going to step up and get involved! No matter what the cultural norm is in South Korea, people should not be abandoned by all publicly. They may have given support behind closed doors, but this is the first time I’ve ever seen a head figure in entertainment say something in regards to the investigation and how he was dragged through the mud without evidence! I’m glad it’s happening but it helps that he is an Oscar winning director the first in history! Glad he is using his platform!!!
Thanks for the update! Such a mess. I feel so bad for his wife n kids. In the end of the day, they are the one that is dealing with this for yrs after
So true. I was reading that he didn't want to burden them and that is why he did it. But, the kids are in a worse situation with a heavier burden for them to carry without their dad.
@@TheProudWife515 yes!! They are still in such a young age. I remember seeing the oldest was like around 11yrs old or so carried his dad picture and his little brother followed. I hope the media and others give them space and peace.
@peacelife Good gosh, they are so young. Yes, I do hope that they'll leave them 😔
the oldest is 18, the youngest 11@@peacelife
What a mess, you are right this is very shady. To bad there was no way he felt he could walk away from all this
Thank you for your hard work and unwavering dedication to get the truth and information we can't get anywhere else especially in English...ml
I’m in the US and following this story with a broken heart, and the more I hear about this story, I think unfortunately, this would or could be developed into an amazing K drama don’t come after me, but it would be interesting to see how a Korean drama would portray all of the victims and the criminals and the justice system in a well developed drama, and at the end of the drama dedicated to Mr. Lee.
Love this channel, so informative and transparent with his news and information.👍
Lesson #1. Toxic bar girls have no loyalty. Remember your poor wife. Fix or settle marital problems between yourselves. By dragging in a third party or more, you only invite snakes who will bite you! 🐍 🐍 🐍
You're right on.
💯
Absolutely!
Yeah and millions like you judging him to death
Well, you're right in paradise world.
You don't know who his wife is. Life is not that simple and sometimes you don't get the chance to settle problems with someone who has mental issues (not saying she has, just saying that sometimes you realise who someone really is AFTER you married them).
A divorce is not an easy decision for anyone, particularly when you are a celebrity with children.
Leaving your children with someone you cannot trust is a nightmare, thinking your ex could choose or marry someone who will take care of your children, judge you, push your children against you is not easy as well.
When a man have children, and is a celebrity, going in front of a judge, to explain that your wife is borderline is very complicated, she is still the mother of your children.
And most of men, particularly when they get very busy with their carrier don't get the chance to keep the children.
I'm not saying that he made the right decision to go there. Just saying that he might got depressed and needed a break from home. Obviously, he was not that happy there.
If you are/had only been surrounded by 'normal' and 'easy to deal' with people, feel lucky because those kinds of people are rare (if they really exist!?) and you live maybe in paradise.
I've been working with people who believe me looked like they were good people, but REALLY were psychos.
You really need to be strong to resist and not end up crazy.
Your advice is only good in a perfect world.
You don't know what pushed him to make that kind of decision. You don't know the details.
He was, anyway, probably a good man who chose a job to give dreams and joy to everyone and that was generous of him. He didn't deserve to die that early,
It's easy to play the morality card here.
Do not judge people that easily and that quickly.
Life is not a paradise for everyone.
Tears and surprises can come anytime to anyone.
😢❤️🩹
blackmailing is a crime, the police who handled the case is not doing their job properly instead selling the case to the media.
So pleased this is happening and that it will get looked at thoroughly as it certainly doesn’t add up and smells really fishy
From a fan in the UK
Yes!!! Absolutely great news to hear. Thank you for those who are making a stand! Let’s this be a lesson to be careful who you surround yourself with, these bad women drove him to his demise.
Thanks Sean for sharing. It get so so shady even with the money..oh my. My heart goes to his wife who has been left with so much debt i was told and have to take care of her two kids, paying for cancelled contracts and the agony. My question is also how does the Blackmailer knew there was a girl upstairs staying....lol.
If the blackmailers got into the downstairs girl phone they could realize that she has a close friend upstairs. Upstairs girl contacted downstairs girl’s mother to push her case so for the same reason the imaginary blackmailers would contact the d/s girl’s friend from the u/s
Thank you dear..you deserve your own 60 minutes..your report is so thorough. My heart breaks for the family of LSK..and what LSK must have gone through.. Hope this is the end of such tragedy but suspect it won't be.
There are more deeper problem he has that made bad choices of choosing lost his life other than blackmail. I think the last rope is the blackmail. I am really heart broken for him.
You are correct. The blackmail is what gets me. Is the upstair ho the one with the kid? Oh wait, so he filed a lawsuit agains them for blackmail? This is really sick and it's hard to follow for me. Why is there only one in jail? is it because there's more evidence with one and not both?
I am so sad for the difficult decision he has made and knowing he is no longer alive. I believed thousands feeling sad after losing him too. However I am so furious to those who were responsible, the unfair treatment and harassment he received. So cruel.
Why was he being targeted.
I sure hope LSK’s wife gets paid (BIG) when they produce this drama! This is freaking wild. Thank you for the current update.
He was a good man but persecuted like a murderer 😭
Just from what I read the same death happened with Jang Ja Yeon, The police officer who investigated Burning Sun Scandal, and now Lee Sunkyun, it is like the same pattern as the first 2. Madam shim could be behind LSK’s case as well.🤷
What a hypocritical, cruel society! Ungrateful. What happens to these people? Are they alienated, living fairy tales? The case was mishandled from the beginning. And where is the "benefit of the doubt"? Even if he was using drugs, he should receive support to treat himself. Shameful and scandalous performance by the police, prosecutors and media. The police protected the criminal and exposed the victim. The world lost an excellent actor, a good person to hypocrisy and misinformation.
RIP Lee Sun-Kyun ❤
The amount of power play against LSK is astonishing
There also needs to be an investigation into the media, the investigating proscecutor and the police.
No matter what they do, they can't bring the excellent actor back. They should have been with him, support him when he was alive. They didn't. They should clear his name now. We want to see his late films that they withdrew.
Thank you seoulite ❤ creative ways to say, during his stay at the burning sun he was assaulted by staff while attempting to help a woman who was being sexually harassed.
Regardless of wether he had a " faux pas or not , its awful he had to pay with his life . Too high a price to pay .These celebrities need some privacy or we are going to continue to loose them.RIP LSK
LSK can not be brought back to life but we can call for truth to be known. #Justice4LSK
the k-police should be investigated! in the first place, they leaked what's supposed to be a PRELIMINARY investigation to the media, based on accusations by a person with no credibility, and insisted on pursuing a very public "investigation" all the while each required drug test turned out negative. lee sunkyun was treated guilty until proven innocent, crucified in the court of public opinion, even as it was obvious the police were fishing for evidence against him. were the promotions of the police bosses worth the career and life of a talented actor?
Yes, it does seem like Lee Sun Kyun was a target from the start. Rich celebrity & they waited for him to be vulnerable & rip him off. His adultery is a private matter between him & his wife, NOT between him & social media. Celebrities are human like we all are and make mistakes. What happened to
Ji Soo & Kim Seon Ho also tragic. Women telling lies on them led them to be cancelled. The truth has come out, now everyone knows they were lied on but their careers are in shambles. This makes #3.
Thank you for updating us with this tragic loss of life . 🙏its always facts matter to all of us concerned.
He was not a wise man. Poor wife and children.
So much drama😮 thanks for keeping us updated
Calling for the investigation of the truth is too late... Let this tragedy launch a change in how these investigations are conducted so that this will not happen again. Goodness! Look at the magnitude of the price! A senseless loss of an extremely talented actor, talk less of a husband, a father, a son and a friend! RIP Lee Sun-kyun ...
Hi Sean, ❤si happy they stand up ,because this is unexpected that people can do this yo others
This is a lesson to famous kiddos stay away from attention seeking unknown women at odd hours. Just go home n live your lives. Your family needs you more.
The story is so heartbreaking.
Poor guy. His naivety is astonishing though.......😬
Keep up the clear and concise reporting. Enjoyed listening to your updates.
I'm disappointed, angry and sad all at the same time. When public figures and celebrities do things that cause us to second guess their image it's disappointing. But not so disappointing that one cancels them outright. It's just a reality that they are subject to making decisions that work against themselves. I'm angry people like the lady upstairs takes advantage of someone's celebrity status to sway and con them. I'm sad law enforcement is influenced by media and social media. While enforcing the law, they lose their objectivity when they seek to make well know figures examples by humiliating them. Investigating should be limited to finding credible evidence and prosecuting the real crime, not punishing someone for being famous.
The police and media should have investigated the case really well instead of pressuring Lee Sun Kyun and assuming he was guilty. He's dead and those women are walking free. You can't bring back the life that was lost. I hope that they will rectify and correct the wrongs they have done.
My wild guess is that they both were in on the black mail and the "madam" didn't want to give the girl upstairs her cut so they had a falling out. Then the girl upstairs hounded the moon to try to get her daughter to give the upstairs girl the money. Lol
These 2 are dodgy as shit. Both need to go to jail for what they have done. They both deserve each other. Hopefully something good comes out of these artistic community speaking up. Otherwise his died for nothing
But he also has an affair behind his wife’s back… and went spiral so unfortunate for all but that blackmailer needs at least 20 yrs in jail
I guess this is a good change in the right director, but I wish they had stood up for him when he was alive and going through the hell that he did. I know the industry is brutal, and anyone who would have stood up for him might have been swept up in the hell that he was experiencing, but I wish he had the support from his community as much as he did the international community. My heart is still breaking. I doubt I will heal from this one anytime soon.
Thank you for your report that best Outcome that these girls should be lock up for good
If I was a Korean celebrity, I would work in South Korea, but live abroad. South Korea's current environment is NOT ideal for celebrities.
Is not ideal for anyone who wants to have a live not only working from 9am to 23pm 😓
I am very glad that people are stepping in to support one of their own.
For all we hear about S. Korea having strick laws it seems that some how the criminals get away with it.
The governnent is very lacking.
No one is keeping track of the country's infastructure example, Halloween when so many died trapped in the street.
Also, the country was holding a free concert in a bid to get the 2030 Expo Fair. The government would have caused a huge amount of deaths.
Doesn't the government require for permits to be obtained and if so is there any inspections conducted before issuing the permits.
Another national shamefull tragedy is the large number of suicides. Doesn't S. Korea have any public service campaigns bringing to the public the tragedy of suicides and public suicide phone numbers?
Regardless of the public programs the government has, it's not really effective due to social/cultural stigma and the prevailing attitudes towards stress management, trauma, addiction, and drug use as a tool to manage said mental health related issues. There's a very surface level attitude towards addressing the issue directly. People would rather stay silent about their problem rather than seek professional help for fear of criticism/ostracism from family and friends. Even if there are public campaigns, majority of the population will largely ignore it unless they themselves will gather the strength to implement societal or institutional (maybe grassroots?) changes to directly address the high rates of self-harm (su1c1de) leading to the loss of a loved one among South Korean citizens.
@@erinlee5936 Hi, thank you.
It is difficult to change a societal mindset that's why it's necessary to constantly have these public notices running on the TV, radio, internet, and billboards. Talks held periodically in the schools. It is extremely difficult to get a society as a whole to make changes but one thing that doesn't run out is time.🙏
It's a shame for the family 😢
I'm so glad they're investigating. If someone murdered him, they need to be brought to trial in court. He was such an amazing talent. Korea needs to do better.
Thank for ur hardwork updating about this blackmail scandal🙏 But it seemed like that Kim Nami and her upstairs friend both of them planned it based on Kim Nami's phone call with Lee Sunkyun. I think they both planned it but in the middle of the plan Kim Nami stole the money alone didn't share with that woman upstairs and then she called her mom. And Kim Nami didn't tell her mom and hid her money. That's why she was mad when the upstairs girl called her mom. That's my interpretation🤨 There is no way Kim Nami didn't involve in the plan of blackmailing him. Both of them should get heavy punishment!
We hope Lee Sun Kyun will get justice and all the perpetrators including those who did not properly do their job in investigating will be punished. Lee Sun Kyun may have sin but it is not for them to judge. There is someone higher than us who can judge all our doings, it may be good or bad. And He (God) only knows our heart. Everyone who looked down on him and got easily swayed or believed in negative news and wrote up bad things about him, hope you change and stop doing that. All the negative thoughts or words you share could kill anyone and it might also happen to you.
Please keep us updated on this case. Thank you.
This is beyond shady. This cost a man his life, these women deserve jail time, and I am sure the Police is making money also from this shady business.
Going to the room salon and hooking up with the “Madam” cost Lee Sun Khyun everything, even his life. Was it a mid life crisis? I don’t think you suddenly start going to room salons at 48. He’d probably been doing this for many years and as his fame grew, and his family grew, so did his risk of being found out. This time it was these grifting jailbirds who got their hooks into him. And it cost him much more than just money. It’s a lesson to all the other men living double lives out there.
And comments like yours are what spreads false information, you don't know what happened, you don't know what's the truth you can't just say ohhh he must of been seeing the madam for a long time...... until everything is investigated and proven, don't judge you guys jump on a chance to try to cancel someone
Yes, like who uses a straw for a sleeping pill. Yes , maybe he really was shy and not used to scammers. @@jesusalejo84
I'm still not over it. He was supposed to make many more movies and dramas.
will keep on watching can't wait to know both of them madam 1 and madam2 be in jail sooooooon😡thank you Seoulite for update👌👏
삼가 고인의 명복을 빕니다.
I’m not sure if this will help. Yes the case was handled badly, but this will expose the actor and his family even more. The police will now have to explain why they acted in the way they did and part of me feels the police were trying to conceal the potential ‘affair’ whilst going for the blackmailers. I don’t think they could do both. I also hope they got permission from the wife as she is the one that has to deal with this if anything else is exposed. Just the fact that they are having a press conference already makes me feel uncomfortable.
Reminds me of a “who dunnit” , with lots and lots of characters, red herrings, twists and turns and booby traps. Until, in the last five minutes it all comes together and the culprit is exposed. I think this is headed that way except, there will be many, many culprits . Luckily we have you to navigate this rocky, smoke and mirrors terrain. So glad to hear of the action taken by the artistic community. Looking forward to the next episode.
Espero que o diretor de Parasita consiga reunir muitos atores e atrizes e pedir justiça para Lee Sun kyun. Até agora revoltada com essa Korea, governo e polícia. Incompetentes levaram um homem honesto ao suicídio. Lamentável! 😢
This case is so sad,ppl r so evil
Very very evil
Listening to all this, I wonder: How did Lee Sun Kyun let himself be fooled by these stupid, calculating and cunning women? Unfortunately, this exposes his naivety and some kind of weakness towards women. I think that the net they cast over him, and then became entangled in it, became a cause of additional humiliation for LSK. Perhaps during the last interrogation the police added the problem of blackmail to the slowly unraveling drugs issue, and it was too much for the actor to bear...
It's a terrible pity that he didn't have a strong person with him to help him sort it out and get through it. Mentally injured, he was unable to look from a distance and saw no way out of the situation. He was certainly afraid of embarrassment to his family and... he decided to 'escape' in such an irreversible way.
Back to these terrible women ---> I hope that the policemen who put so much pressure on Lee Sun Kyun to pursue their own careers will now show themselves and find a solution to this Gordian knot, punish the guilty, apologize to the LSK family and the entire society for their earlier bungling. And everyone will learn from this for the future, especially the media, so that they do not 'kill' people with speculations and pressure!
It won't bring us back a great Artist, but maybe we will avoid further tragedies.
Finally, I will add that I am a woman myself and I am disgusted by what these two did to Lee Sun Kyun.
BTW, in the comment to your previous video, I asked if you knew where LSK died, because maybe you could light a candle on my behalf... (I located this place; in case you didn't know).
We would be waiting for that conference,I hope something good can be donne.
This is so messed up to the point of being ridiculous.
Oh wow, he sure got himself into a pickle. R.I P coffee prince 😔
Who wants to bet that THE Girl Upstairs will be the name of the NF documentary.
He was such a great actor in all his movies, but to take his own life something is fishy. RIP😢
If you read comments from Korean netizens with western values, they are sympathetic of LSK while the one that don't speak English still blame the late LSK, blackmail or not LSK has betrayed his wife. Western media highlighted his success story while back in homeland full or drug use and betrayal news.
I wonder if these girls have any remorse or empathy for his death? They may not have pulled the trigger but they definitely helped. They saw a venerable man and destroyed him and his family. RIP chef
He was a good man who was just the so-called typical marriage-weary husband who sought comfort from other women. It's his peril, he could have mended his ways but the circumstances aided in his demise and failure. No One's innocent however in this case, the media, the police, those con artist and there victim. It's so tragic! Men should be wary of illicit liaisons.
A girl tried to blackmail me. But i have 0 money.
Pls, What do you call a ‹madame,‹ and a ’mini madam' ?
I don't get it.
I'm just angry that the actor is dead in the first place. Stupid, greedy people.
What does 1+1 make? Yep 2. Two shitty women, two sets of lies, two chunks of money, and two crimes. The victim, Lee Sun- Kyun is dead. Lock both of em up and throw away the key.
Any life lost is one too many. It appears that the late LSK was caught in the wrong place at the wrong time and thus unwittingly became the tragic victim.
I m so relieved that the artistic community is coming together to demand for the truth to be revealed and the right people to be held accountable.
It is disturbing when life starts to imitate Art. It should be the other way round.
As the process of justice is being carried out, let us still continue to pray🙏 for the soul of the late LSK. He must not be "abandoned" the second time round and this time it is even more critical as it affects the well-being of his soul in eternal life. Please respond to this plea for prayers seriously. Thank you.
Some1 should get a hold of:€¥₩ n give it back 2deceased fam
Too late! What for?? The guy has died!!! The wife should seek assistance from good lawyers.
The whole thing is sad. 😩
Omg crazy stuff! The single momma drama 😅 grow up ladies! 🤦♀️
Do think Lee was very naive and gullible and got sucked in to far then realised at the end
And the woman in it really done a real job on him
Thanks
