Actor Dies in Motorbike Accident

By Cathy Rose A. Garcia

The late Lee Eon

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 came to know / like eon thru jjh.

but as i came to know him more, i became fond of his smiles and even ogled at his modeling pics. he really was a deadringer for richard gere.

given the right breaks, he could have easily made it as a lead star.

but now all these dreams are coming to a stop.

we're mourning for a great loss because he had successfully made a mark in the entertainment industry.

rest in peace. we're proud to know you had gained so many friends and admirers in such a short span of time.

you are well -loved and will always be cherished deep in our hearts.

First reaction this morning when Rebby told me the news was shock and lost. This is way too sudden. How can such thing happen???

As the day gone by, as the reality began to sink in, tears just flowed, :tears: but with kiddos around, I have to control and not allow my emotion to flow freely.

Now, I'm grieving. this is just way too sad :(:tears:

My condolences to EON's family, especially his mum. I'm sure she is certainly the one who is feeling worse.

was feeling numb the whole day when i was at work..

now that the fact has sunken in, tears just came... :tears:

i've said this before, it feels like we just lost a family member. cos he is family to us. it feels like someone has just drilled a hole in my heart.

throngs of people just keep on pouring in. that's a gauge of how well he had lived his life.
