Various Korean artists mourn over the death of Amy Winehouse who passed away on the 23rd.

On the 24th, when Korean actor Cho Jaehyun was getting his haircut and was asked via twitter, "Who is this singer?", he felt proud that he had brought Amy Winehouse's album cover with him. He said, "I have accumulated a lot of her music and yet it still sounds refreshing to me."

Korean actress and singer Uhm Junghwa said sadly, "Amy Winehouse's husky nasal voice. Her hair that's tied to seemingly pierce the skies. Her thick eyeliner. The pink ballet shoes worn casually on her lean legs. We can no longer see any of it."

Ballad singer Tei said, "Amy Winehouse, she was born the same year as me so the news is even sadder for me. Her voice is lovely, even in heaven it will remain unchanged. I pray that she will rest in peace."

Korean pop band Someday said, "Rest In Peace, Amy Winehouse. Please rest in peace." Singer John Park who was the runner-up of Superstar K posted up, "amy".

Singer Park Jaebum (Jay Park) who was formerly part of 2PM said, "RIP Amy Winehouse!!!" and singer Yoon Mirae added, "R.I.P (Rest In Peace) Amy Winehouse!".

Amy Winehouse's body was discovered in her house in London at 3:56pm on the 23rd. The reason of her death has yet to be determined but initial assumption is that she died due to drug overdose.

Kwon's Tweet was flawless :

RIP Amy Winehouse.......그녀의 목소리 와 소울은 영원히 최고로 기억될것이다.마음이 아프다 ㅠ

my rudimentary and probably erroneous translation :

RIP Amy Winehouse....... her voice and soul (I think he means soul figuratively here, as in the soulful quality of her voice, not her actual soul) will forever be remembered as the best. My heart hurts ~tears~

Yeah I saw that, and read it as you did as well. So I think your translation's good. :)

I was wondering which korean artists were fans of her.

R.I.P. Amy. I will always cherish your music ;_;

Still devastated tbh.
She was such a lost soul and we've been robbed of another young talent.

I can't help but feel as if no one really bothered to truly reach out to her. I have no idea though since we never know what goes on behind closed doors.

i think her parents tried very hard over the years to get her help, but i think when it comes to people with addictions it's really up to them to let themselves be helped :(

She was trying to get clean and her dad struggled with her as well.

It's just that much more heartbreaking. It means she lost the final battle within herself.
Gosh, the torment she must've gone through

this. the more you try to help people like that.... the worse they get. obv not in all cases, but in most. the best thing i think you can do is make sure they know you care and how you feel... and then just let them take their course and hope they GET IT EVENTUALLY (get that its a bad life style, i mean) and leave them alone... BUT when they reach out for help and want to change.. then be there for them.. etc etc.

Um, rude.
I actually think it's more dumb to throw around baseless insults at people.

Kinda surprised Korea is talking about her -- I didn't think they would have had much interest in either her style of music or her antics.

Back to Black was a perfect album. It's a shame that she couldn't beat her addiction. RIP Amy.

When my friend called me and told me like an hour after she was found, I was so devastated :( She will definitely be remembered, her voice was too amazing to forget <3 R.I.P

I'm really shocked that Korean people knew about her (with the exception of Jaebeom), but really glad she had fans over there.

Been replaying Back to Black since I heard about the news yesterday.

And I was so excited about her new album...

me too. i was really hoping she'd make a comeback. maybe she had some demos that will be released on a compilation album someday though.

My friend and I were thinking they might release some of her music she had been working on ventually.
Her sales have been rising after people have found out about her death.
Nice to see fans showing respect for her work by going out and supporting it :D

Awww.. RIP Amy :(

I'm glad she was recognized even in korea, I actually cried when I found she was dead, but with the way she lived I think pretty much everyone expected that.
she's my favorite singer before k-pop and valerie is forever my favorite song.
Rest in peace, Amy. :'(

:( May she rest in peace. Condolences to her family and friends.

She was really talented. I hope they'll release that album she finished recording before she went to rehab. I was never a huge fan of hers, but I really liked Back to Black and she had an awesome voice.

it's something that these people in korea can acknowledge her talent and the sadness of her death while people in the US are like, 'lol she deserved it' 'crackhead' and 'she had it coming' etc.

was a fan, am a fan, will always be a fan of her and her music.

R.I.P. Amy
