The former agency head of Block B′s former agency was found dead at his home after committing suicide on May 20.
A source close to the deceased told enews on May 21, "[The former agency head] Mr. Lee committed suicide in the basement of his home on May 20. He was found dead by a friend, and the wake is currently underway."
The wake started at a hospital in Seoul since the evening of the day he was found dead. The coffin will be borne out on May 22.
Mr. Lee gathered much attention as an important official in the charges Block B had brought against its agency.
On January 3, the group had filed for the cancellation of its contract against Stardom Entertainment. Block B had asserted that Stardom had failed to pay it a year′s worth of profits, and that Mr. Lee had received 70 million won from the members′ parents and disappeared.
Stardom Entertainment, however, had countered that it had never failed to pay the members, and that there was a mastermind behind the members.
It seems Mr. Lee came to kill himself as he suffered while the case continued to go on.
A family member told enews, "We have nothing to say."

Date: 2013-05-21 05:43 am (UTC)but seriously blaming block b for this is absolutely ridiculous. He could've committed suicide from shame/pressure but that's not block b's fault at all.

Date: 2013-05-21 06:37 am (UTC)I can only hope that instead of looking for people to blame that the public begins to evaluate and improve their mental illness resources.
This is so sad.

Date: 2013-05-21 06:52 am (UTC)To think that his suicide was block b fault is stupid, how can the media say without consodering how this can indirectly affect the boys. Jus hope that netizens don't start again the hateful comments towards them and that those good news come quickly.

Esp that they add the family said nothing about his death just before trying to make us believe they know something. Gtfo.

Date: 2013-05-21 07:17 am (UTC)i want to say that i can't believe that block b are getting the blame for this, but i can
block b has been in the line of fire since debut, they've been up to their heads in shit since day one and it fucking sucks
you watch block b start blaming themselves too, watch
i fucking remember when netizens started that petition telling block b to kill themselves for the thailand incident, i wouldn't be surprised if they pulled that shit again
