The funeral service for the late Wheesung, who suddenly passed away, will be held today (16th).
The funeral service for the late Wheesung will take place at 6 AM on the 16th at the funeral hall on the basement level 1 of Samsung Medical Center in Ilwon-dong, Gangnam-gu, Seoul. The burial will be held at 7:30 AM after the funeral service.
Wheesung was found dead at his home in Gwangjin-gu, Seoul, at 6:29 PM on the 10th. He was 43 years old.
The police reported that there were no signs of external intrusion or criminal activity, and they requested an autopsy from the National Forensic Service to determine the exact cause of death. On the 12th, the initial findings from the autopsy stated that 'the cause of death is unknown.' The results of the drug tests are expected to be available in two weeks.
Born in 1982, Wheesung debuted in 2002 with his first album 'Like A Movie.' He gained immense popularity with hit songs such as 'Is it not possible?', 'Incurable Disease', 'I even thought about marriage', and 'Love is Delicious.'
Initially, Wheesung's family planned to hold a quiet funeral among themselves, but they set up a mourning room on the 14th to give those who loved him a chance to say their final goodbyes.
The mourning room saw a continuous flow of visitors, including KCM, god's Kim Tae-woo, Lee Young-hyun, Mighty Mouth, ICHILLIN', Song Baek-kyung from One Time, and Lee Hee-jin and Shim Eun-jin from Baby Vox, who were close friends of the deceased. Additionally, Naul, Zico, Park Jung-hyun, Lee Hyun-do, and groups like BTS and TWICE sent wreaths to express their condolences.
The late Wheesung, who became a star in the sky, will rest in peace at the Gwangneung Memorial Park.
