On the 10th, singer Wheesung unexpectedly passed away, and the police are set to request an autopsy in connection with his death.
According to sources, on the 11th, the police will request an autopsy from the National Forensic Service to determine the cause of death, and they will also analyze his mobile phone.
As of now, the police have not found any signs of foul play or external intrusion. They are currently investigating the presence of a suicide note and the specific circumstances surrounding his death.
As a result, Wheesung's funeral schedule has also been put on hold.
On the 10th, Wheesung's agency, Tajo Entertainment, stated, "He was found in a state of cardiac arrest at his home in Seoul and was pronounced dead." They added, "The sudden news has left his family and all of us at Tajo Entertainment in deep sorrow as we mourn his passing."
Wheesung had returned from China the day before and was staying at his home in Gwangjin-gu, Seoul. It is reported that when his manager was unable to reach him on the 10th, his mother visited the house and found him collapsed in cardiac arrest, prompting her to call emergency services.
Wheesung was scheduled to perform at the 'Wheesung X KCM Concert in Daegu' at the EXCO Auditorium on the 15th.
