A South Korean actor named Song Jae Rim has unfortunately been reported deceased at the age of 39.
Tori mentioned that a friend discovered him deceased at his home by noon on Tuesday, as they were both expected to go out for lunch together.
Many of his co-stars took to social media to express their grief over his passing.
My friend and fellow actor, Hong Seok Cheon, expressed his feelings on social media, saying, "I'm really sad that I'll never see your beautiful smile again... Rest in peace." He later added in his stories, "I love you, I miss you, and I'm sorry, my brother."
According to reports, the local police in Seoul stated that they have discovered a note at his residence, but they are still looking into the circumstances surrounding his death.
The 39-year-old actor, famous for his role in the popular K-drama "The Moon That Embraces the Sun," is featured in two new dramas released this year: "My Military Valentine" and "Queen Woo."
According to YTN, the local celebrity known as Manager A, who left his previous agency last year, has announced that he has already participated in three new projects that have yet to be made public.
Another actor, Kim Min Kyo, expressed his sorrow over the passing of fellow actor Jae Rim. He shared his feelings by saying, "Just a month ago, you were speaking to me in such an uplifting way, telling me about your performances. So why did this happen? How is this possible? I will hold onto this loss deeply in my heart, and I will remember you always."
