I hate to be the bearer of bad news but real life doesn’t always imitate fiction and sometimes even exceeds it in ways impossible to prepare for. 2016 was looking rosy for A-list Korean actress Ha Ji Won, but before she could even take the first steps into the new year with her entertainment career, her real life delivered a shocking and devastating blow when her father unexpectedly passed away. Most stars keep their personal lives completely private but Ha Ji Won and her actor younger brother Jeon Tae Soo are one of those acting sibling duos that gets the public’s interest up so two years ago the entire Jeon family posed for a pictorial in The Celebrity magazine. The pictorial naturally garnered widespread interest and positive feedback for such a beautiful family that exuded warmth and affection, so it’s truly sad moment to have to share the news that the Jeon family patriarch passed away in early January from a sudden heart attack. My condolences to Ha Ji Won and her family and friends during this sad and difficult time.
Ugh, hate reading this like this 🙁 may her father rest and peace and my condolences to her and her family
Err… You’re not the bearer of bad news because various outlets had released the information over a week ago, stating that he died of a heart attack on January 2d.
Oh be quiet, not all her readers have access to asian news outlets. I had no clue about this and I bet many others didn’t.
ANYWAY, my heart goes out to HJW’s family! They really looked like a genuinely close and loving family so I can’t even imagine how hard this has hit them. I’m thinking of his dear wife especially. He looked like a humble, warm man and may he RIP.
Also RIP to David Bowie!!
Stop taking me the wrong way and insulting me, and go back under your rock. You obviously have no idea that prominent English-spoken websites (ever heard of Soompi for instance?) exist outside Asia.
And I’m still at square SO WHAT?
Miss Koala is not a paid reporter that has to break the news as it happens. I’m confused, do you think you are on CNN or BBC world news? Did she make the disclaimer that she’ll break asian celeb news at a particular time somewhere?
How about you go slither back under your rock and take a break from throwing around petty ass complaints and nitpicking at people’s words. Or try to think up more for other posts on the site, whatever helps you get through the day. Have fun with that sugar!
BTW, I never care much about Soompi. What is it?
This is the first time I heard about the sad news. I don’t get the point why you sound a bit offensive just bcos she wrote about this in her blog one week he passed away.
I hope the family finds strength in this hard time, losing a family member is very difficult. My condolences to Ha ji-won and her family
Oh dear, this IS bad news. But I’d like to extend my heartfelt condolences to HJW and her family. Stay strong!
Oh such sad news. Hopefully her family will pull through fine.
I read Ha Ji Won and her brother unexpectedly passed away O. o
Hope she and her family will be able to get through this tough time together. RIP.
DA FCK?! the way this post’s title is constructed is misleading… i really thought Ha Jiwon died ! ! !
My condolences to Ha Ji-won, her family and friends. Very sad news so early into the year. They looked like such a warm, loving family in the pictorial.
The loss of a family member or someone special is heartbreaking. Time may heal the wound but it will leave you a lifetime scar. My condolences to Ha Ji Won and her family.
Condolences for the family…
On another note, I really want to see Jeon Tae Soo back in Dramaland. I loved him in King’s Daughter Soo Baek-Hyang.
