K-pop star and Astro member Moonbin committed su!cide on Wednesday (April 19) at 25. Fantagio announced Moonbin’s de@th and subsequent ascension to stardom in an Instagram post.
It was at 8:10 p.m., the star’s manager found his body in his home in southern Seoul. He used to be in the band Astro. The cause of de@th was reported to be su!cide. His boss reportedly found him unconscious and immediately called for help. As of yet, no autopsy has been performed.
Photos of street memorials in South Korea revealed flowers and cards left by people from all over the globe, including the United States, Chile, Indonesia, and the Philippines. On Thursday, April 20, 2023, online users from all across the world shared their sadness at his p@ssing.
Sadness was shared by one Twitter user, who wrote:
“Rest in peace, Moonbin. I hope the stars and the moon treat you well. I hope they give you all the comfort and love”.
Moonbin has one of the longest-running careers of any K-pop star. The year 2000 saw his rise to fame as a child actor and model. He made his acting debut in the 2009 Korean drama Boys Over Flowers when he was only 11 years old.
When he turned 18, he joined Astro. Rob Schwartz, the Asia reporter, said that despite his lack of worldwide fame, his domestic popularity was over the sky.
He remarked that, despite the high standards set by their social media fans, record firms want K-pop stars to produce success after hit. What he said was:
“It’s crazy how they have these guys under a microscope. Without a doubt, Western celebrities can keep their romantic relationships under wraps. There is no such thing as privacy in the K-pop industry. They get millions of words published about them every time they move a toe”.
A hiatus in 2019 and 2020 for Moonbin’s health was also discussed. The public often assumes K-pop singers are consistently touring to promote their albums. They start learning and practicing from a young age.
They are socially isolated, with no friends or regular activities. They have trouble conceptualizing existence outside of the K-pop scene.
