Actor Dies in Motorbike Accident

Lee Eon, a model-turned-actor who starred in the popular MBC drama ``Coffee Prince,'' died in a motorcycle accident at dawn Thursday, Yonhap News reported.

Lee, whose real name is Park Sang-min, was on his way home after attending a party celebrating the end of his KBS drama ``Choi Kang Chil-woo'' (Mighty Chil-woo). He was riding his motorcycle when he hit a railing of the elevated roadway in Hannam-dong, Yongsan at around 2 a.m.

The 27-year old actor died on the spot and was taken to Soonchunhyang University Hospital in Hannam-dong, Seoul. The police have not yet determined if Lee was drunk when he got into the motorcycle accident.

Lee gained fame last year for his role as a dim-witted but loveable Min-yeop in ``Coffee Prince.''

When he was in elementary school, Lee started participating in ssireum or traditional Korean wrestling. He proved to be an excellent athlete and won gold medals at Korean national ssireum competitions in 1997 and 1998.

However, as a freshman in university, Lee saw model Cha Seung-won on TV and decided to become a model. He worked hard to lose 30 kilos in order to gain the slim physique of a model. He made his debut in a fashion show in Busan in 1999.

With his good looks, Lee soon became a sought-after model, appearing in numerous fashion shows, including the Seoul Fashion Artists Association Collection. He also branched out into acting in dramas, which led to his role in ``Coffee Prince.''

i love him so munch in Coffee Prince !!

how could he died like that ??

RIP EON ! WE LOVE YOU !!

[Guest V A L XD]

So far, it's seems mostly Coffee Prince people that are there. barely any Chilwoo cast.

I always see SNSD at funerals. They're probably just there to pay respect. I don't think they had any connection with Eon right?

[Guest annameg]

Actually, SNSD and Eon were on a lot of radio shows together. They were friends. Not super close friends, but they were still friends.

Sooyoung and Sunny were crying. I do think they knew each other pretty well. Anyway, I'll miss him... He was my favorite character on Who Are You.

[Guest mandy]

I dont know what to say. I'm just lost for words.

R.I.P

We will never forget you.

[Guest nalya]

oh no. I saw this yesterday but I didn't want to believe it was him, so I didn't come in to read...

Rest In Peace.

[Guest yujah52]

I only watched him in Coffee Prince & Choi Kang Chil Woo dramas. Still watching him in his last drama though. He was a great actor & model. My condolences go out to his family and friends. RIP.

They were in a lot of radio shows together. Jessica was a regular on Shim shim tapa when he was the dj, and they actually became friends with Shin Young too in that show.

Almost the whole cast of Coffee prince went T_T and Shin Young is there too. I still can't believe Eon is gone.

oOo I see. Thanks.

Just another question someone can answer me. I don't really understand how a korean funeral goes, but is Eon's casket under the flowers and his picture?

[Guest maydai3333]

WHAT???

This is just as, if not more, than Heath Ledger dying.

Dang, he was soo young too.

RIP
