Ever since the shocking news of singer Chae Dong Ha’s suicide hit the press, countless celebrities have taken to their Twitter accounts to express their grief.
T-ara’s Eunjung wrote, “Dong Ha oppa, what just happened? You’re a person who shone as brightly as a star; you’re someone I looked up to since I was a trainee. I’m so, so sad, and my heart is pained.”
HaHa wrote, “Damn! Everyone! Please take care of those around you. Please! Please! Please! Please take care of them. Let’s please live. Listen to them. Just be by them. Why does everyone…”
Kim Hyung Joon wrote, “May he rest in peace. My heart is pained.”
Song Ho Bum wrote, “I hope Dong Ha rests in peace. Please pray so that he goes to a better place. I think being a singer is so hard because when you’re forgotten, you feel as if you’ve been thrown away. I know that feeling so well, and it hurts me that much more. I wasn’t even able to tell him to find strength.”
CEO Kim Kwang Soo of Core Contents Media also expressed, “It’s so shocking, I can’t find the right words to express myself. I will be attending his wake. I never kept frequent contact with him, but I did hear of his whereabouts through the SG Wannabe members.”
He continued, “He had a lot of passion for acting but it didn’t work out as he had hoped. I had advised him so many times that it would have been better for him to return to promoting as a solo singer or with a group. He’s an introverted person and suffered from depression since his days with SG Wannabe. It was difficult for him to connect with people and he was stressed and pressured with his acting and solo career. I spoke with SG Wannabe’s Kim Jin Ho on the phone, but he’s too in shock to say anything.”
Seeya’s Lee Bo Ram, Chae Dong Ha’s former girlfriend, also revealed that she had received a text message three days prior to his death.
Her representatives stated, “Lee Bo Ram found out about his death through the news. Three days ago, she had received a text from him asking how she was doing. She was unable to reply because she was so busy. Because of the shock, she cannot find the words to express herself right now.”
