[pearlychoco.livejournal.com]

Actor Jeon Tae Soo, the younger brother of Ha Ji Won, is reported to have passed away.

According to his agency, the actor was constantly being treated for depression and was in the process of discussing his return to the acting industry recently.

"I am sorry to bring heavy news to everyone.On January 21, actor Jeon Tae Soo, aged 34, changed his fate. The deceased was consistently receiving treatment for his depression, and his condition was improving. Even up until recently, he was discussing making his return as an actor. Both friends and family are grieving and full of sorrow over the sudden, sad news. Jeon Tae Soo was full of passion for acting and was a pure artist who had deep knowledge of various fields including fine arts. Please refrain from any speculative articles or malicious comments. The funeral service will be held as soon as possible with his family members and friends. We would like to ask the media to refrain from media coverage at the funeral hall so the deceased can be reverently cherished. We are sorry and full of sorrow to bring such heart-breaking news. Once again, we would like to offer our condolences."

The funeral will be attended by his family members and close acquaintances and will be held as quietly as possible. No cause of death has been reported at this time.

Jeon Tae Soo was only 34 years old when he died on January 21. He was famous for his roles in Sungkyunkwan Scandal, All My Love, and It’s Okay, Daddy’s Girl.

Our thoughts and prayers go to Jeon Tae Soo’s family, friends, and fans in this troubling time.

ETA: Ha Ji Won has cancelled all of her upcoming appearances (including the press conference for her upcoming film, Manhunt, as well as interviews and the movie screening of the film) which were scheduled to take place this week.

Oh no.

[jinkiestabi.livejournal.com]

I’m so sensitive today, crying at everything. My condolences to his family.

I’m hoping that his methods and whatnot weren’t printed in the article.

Sad to see that my country doesn't have a suicide hotline, I could use one right now.

I heard the man has a family - or do I get the wrong info?

[pearlychoco.livejournal.com]

can i ask which country you're from?

he didn't have a family prior to his passing. he left behind his 3 older sisters & his mother (his father passed away in 2016)

I have not used these so maybe another user can vouch for them? But here's some online chat suicide prevention/therapy/counseling options

Alo idk if it regions blocks but there is the a text based one. If you text 741741 a crisis worker will text you back. idk your age but if you are young and a person of color text steve to that number and you'll get someone more personalized for your needs. Here's a tumblr post about it in case I screwed up the number

If you need someone to talk to my inbox is open. I'll probably be on for another few hours. I've been living with depression for a long time. I'd be happy to listen if you need someone.

Hopefully he isn't hurting anymore...rip.

[sanctuairee.livejournal.com]

may he now rest in peace ♡

i really hope there won't be any media of the funeral. there was so much coverage of jonghyun's and that felt so disrespectful and exploitative.

[lightframes.livejournal.com]

Rest in peace.

[ashdevilrun23.livejournal.com]

Rip. His poor family :(

Depression needs to be treated like the serious illness it is
