Terribly sad to hear this.

[Guest miniejungle]

He's a good fren of Oppa.

He also rode a bike.

And he has left us and moved on.

Rest in peace, Eon. You will be remembered.

[myownsecretmind]

My heart is breaking when I received an email from my mailing list friend. It's so sad. Strongest Chilwoo is Lee Eon first drama that I watch and I thought his acting is fun and I really enjoy his acting with Eric there.

After Kim Min Soo (Monday Kiz), I still can't believe that it happened to Lee Eon. They're all still young.

Rest In Peace, Lee Eon. My heart and pray for his family.

Stars mourn Lee Eon

August 20th, 2008 // by javabeans

As previously reported, actor Lee Eon’s sudden death early on the morning of August 21 has proved a shock to the entertainment community.

Celebrities came garbed in funeral blacks to pay their respects to their deceased colleague/co-star/friend at the mortuary area in the hospital where the deceased’s body is being kept until the funeral service. Yoon Eun-hye arrived in tears at Seoul’s Soon Chun Hyang University Hospital, as did fellow Coffee Prince co-star Kim Jae-wook, who appears to still be stunned, reportedly sobbing as he kept his face hidden behind his hair. (Pics of the stars, and in particular Kim Jae-wook, make me feel uncomfortably voyeuristic; I admit to an interest in seeing pics, but not when they are clearly intrusive in such a raw moment.)

His co-star from drama Strongest Chil Woo, actor Yoo Ah-in, also showed up, grim-faced. If you’re wondering why certain people haven’t yet paid their respects, I’m sure they’ll be making their way to the funeral area as they learn about the accident today. I haven’t seen pics of the rest of his Chil Woo castmates, but apparently they were among the earliest to receive word. Eric received the phone call at 3am and headed directly to the hospital, along with cast and crew members, including Gu Hye-sun and PD Park Man-young.

Others who came by were former co-star Ryu Deok-hwan, and supermodel Park Dool-seon. (She is one of the main stars of modeling reality show I Am a Model, which Lee Eon was involved with; he had also reportedly dated supermodel Jang Yoon-joo, one of Park Dool-seon’s colleagues.)

His mother understandably was in a huge state of shock, and apparently still in denial; she resisted being led to the funeral room, wanting to go to a hospital room instead, as though unable to digest the truth.

Also, a report was issued contradicting early beliefs that the accident occurred on Lee Eon’s way home after the Chil Woo wrap party. A new report suggests that Lee Eon had already arrived home, then left again, after which he was in the accident. Some sources speculate that he had been on the way to the club where he had worked as a DJ. I’m sure these details will be sorted out in due time.

As to questions of his sobriety at the time of his death, police have stated that tests will be conducted to determine whether he was drunk, but will not have the results for approximately a week. Lee Eon is, however, reported to not be much of a drinker.

PD Lee Yoon-jung, who’d directed Lee Eon in Coffee Prince, also shared her words of grief, saying, “I don’t know what to say. I plan to pay my respects tonight. Lee Eon had a special passion for acting and was always a source of support for staff on the film set. He was a good person.”

The funeral service is planned for August 23. Other details as yet unconfirmed.

Actor and Model Eon Dies from Motorcycle Accident

Popular actor and fashion model Eon (27, real name Park Sang-min) died early Thursday morning from a motorcycle accident.

According to police reports, Eon attended a party to celebrate the final episode of KBS 2TV's drama series "Chilwu, the Mighty" after midnight on August 21 and got into an accident while on his way home.

At the time of the accident, the late actor's management agency said the details of the accident have yet to be confirmed and that his parents were on their way to Seoul from Busan.

A funeral hall has been set up at the Soon Chun Hyang University Hospital in Hannam-dong, Seoul.

Eon co-starred in the recently concluded drama series "Chilwu, the Mighty" as one of the assassins led by Chilwu, played by Eric.

The late actor and model rose to stardom through his role in the phenomenally popular MBC drama series "Coffee Prince."
