South Korea is mourning the sudden passing of beloved actress Kim Sae-Ron, who was reportedly found dead at her home in Seoul over the weekend.
According to Reuters, the 24-year-old actress was discovered unresponsive on Sunday by a friend who had come to visit. Authorities were immediately contacted, and while investigations are ongoing, there are currently no signs of foul play.
Kim Sae-Ron rose to stardom with her breakout performance in the 2010 hit film The Man from Nowhere, which solidified her as one of South Korea’s most promising young actresses. She later starred in the 2012 thriller The Neighbor, further cementing her reputation in the industry.
However, her career took a downturn in 2022 following a DUI incident, which led to a temporary hiatus from acting. Despite the setback, she remained a well-known figure in the entertainment world.
Fans and fellow celebrities have taken to social media to express their grief and pay tribute to her legacy.
She was only 24 years old.
