We are very sad to report that actor and singer Park Yong Ha has died at the age of 33. His body was discovered at 5:30 AM in his home in the Non Hyun Dong district of Seoul.
Park Yong Ha was a very talented actor who costarred in the famous "Winter Sonata" drama with Bae Yong Joon and Choi Ji Woo, which cemented his success in Japan and Korea. As a singer, he also released several successful albums in both countries.
More details will follow. Our condolences go to his family, friends, and many fans around the world.

-The evening prior to his death (29th), Park missed a meeting with drama producers for his upcoming project Love Song. His manager couldn’t get in contact with him.
-One producer said that they had seen Park occasionally in a down mood, but attributed it to news of Park’s father suffering from cancer.
-Park reportedly died from hanging. He was found by his mother in his room with a cell phone cord around his neck.
-Around 12:40 am, he was with his father, who is suffering late-stage stomach cancer, massaging his father’s legs. Park told him “I’m sorry” over and over. He then went into his room, where he was found in the morning.
-Park’s last phone call (or one of his last) was reportedly with DBSK’s Hero Jaejoong, with whom he’d grown closer as he gave the latter advice about pursuing singer activities in Japan. Jaejoong is currently recording in the U.S. and said, “I spoke with him on the phone yesterday, and his voice sounded so bright. I didn’t feel he was at all different from his normal self. We agreed to have a drink together when I got back to Korea. I’m in such shock.”
