Moonbin of the group ASTRO was found dead at home, age 25.
This is something that happens far too often with k-pop stars and it is heartbreaking. I think the pressure they put on these young stars, they just can't take it. You don't see this in v-pop or j-pop nearly as much.
Prayers to his friends and family.
That is terrible :(
I did not listen to this group but I know who they are and who he was. Poor guy. It really does happen way more with k-pop. I seldom hear of it from any other place in the world in terms of pop artists.
I wonder what broke him. It is always sad when you hear about stuff like this. I can't help but wonder why certain industry standards continue in Korea knowing this is a growing trend.
Very sad to hear about this. Someone I talk to on Twitter mentioned him the other day. It breaks my heart when young people end their lives.
