I can’t even begin to describe how fucking sick and tired i am of hearing about Korean celebrity deaths. The environment is so rotted that if they’re not committing suicide they’re dying young of heart attacks and it’s so indescribably sad.

Wheesung: Gone Too Soon

Warning: The following topic may be sensitive for some. Please read with caution.

Veteran South Korean singer Choi Wheesung passed away in his apartment. He was found on March 10, 2025, at 6:29 PM after a family member called the police to check up on him. As of right now, there is currently no cause of death, however, some sources are saying that it may have been due to Cardiac Arrest (heart attack).

Wheesung debuted in 2002 in R&B and immediately made a name for himself. He was known and loved by many big names in the industry.

However, his name was smeared in 2021, when he was caught using propofol. He served one year in prison and was suspended for two years. After coming back, he had been heavily focused on live performances. He was set to perform on March 15 in Daegu.

I wrote an article on Kim Saeron a few weeks ago after she passed away. While the cause of death for both of these beautiful people is still unknown, circumstances aren't.

This brings us back to the conversation about South Korean celebrity treatment.

Many people like to think cardiac arrest is only due to being overweight. However, it can also be caused due to stress. Stress can disrupt the electricity in the heart causing arrhythmia (irregular heart rate) which can eventually lead to a heart attack.

Many celebrities experience the stress of being overworked every day. GOT7's Bam Bam recently announced that he was leaving his company due to being overworked. This was a good move on his behalf as the body needs to be at equilibrium to function at its best.

However, not all celebrities have made this choice. NCT's Mark is also in a grueling situation where he is being overworked, but he has chosen to stay with SM Entertainment.

I am not saying this may have been Wheesung's cause of death, but it wouldn't be shocking.

Until then, I hope the family can find some sort of peace over the coming days.

And may Wheesung rest in peace. His legacy will live on.

Now listening 💿🎶: In a ballad mood today and I suddenly thought of this... my god Wheesung's voice!! My god the oriental ballad + R&B instrumentation!! My god!!!

On a related note, also 우린 미치지 않았어! What a great passionate R&B number! I probably need to dive deeper into his discography because these two songs are masterpieces.

I woke up casually scrolling through Korean news when I saw that Wheesung passed away. I am once again devasted that someone so talented but who was also struggling and depressed felt like they had no way to go but to self medicated. I understand what he took is illegal. At the end of the day, he was in pain and knowing the environment he was in, he thought he could take care of himself on his own without professional health, and that sadly doesn't always work.

While it is tragic that his life ends as sad as so many of his songs, I wish to celebrate his talent and his contribution to the Korean music scene with his beautiful and soulful voice. You may be gone, and we won't get to see you perform, but you'll live on in our playlists and hearts. I hope you're happier and more peaceful wherever you are.
