Eun-ju Lee


I've just watched this again after hearing about Eun-ju's tragic suicide, and it lends her performance an incredible poignancy that made me ache inside. Such a beautiful and talented young actress. Does anyone know why she did it? Sources seem a bit vague.

She suffered from severe depression, i think

I actually heard she did some nude scene in a movie that gave her a shock depression.

It's really complicated, and I don't think anyone knows for sure. But there were lots of rumors about her depression after 'The Scarlet Letter', and money problems caused by her mother, unwanted affairs resulting from those money problems, etc AFTER her death. It was really something out of the blue and shocked millions of people here in Korea.
