Choi Jin Sil
After Jung Da Bin, another Korean Star committed suicide.
A Rosy Life Star Choi Jin-sil, 40, one of South Korea’s most popular actresses was found dead at her home in Seoul, South Korea. Choi’s mother found the actress, hanging by an elastic bandage in a shower stall. Chief Investigator believed she committed suicide.
In Choi’s text message to her makeup artist she said “My dear, I hope you take care of my children if something happens to me.”
According to wikipedia
Choi Jin-sil (December 24, 1968 – October 2, 2008) was a South Korean actress and model. She was considered one of the best actresses in South Korea, nicknamed “The Nation’s Actress“.[1] On October 2, 2008, Choi was found dead at her home, and the police chief stated that it was “obviously suicide”.[1] It has been speculated that negative comments by Korean netizens[2] and rumours regarding her lending money to Ahn Jae-hwan[1] contributed to Choi’s depressed state.
Choi had also been depressed since her 2004 divorce to baseball player Jo Seong-min and worried about how to care for her two young children.
A Rosy Life, a leading drama series in South Korea was shown in the Philippines on October 2006 over GMA7. This is the story of a housewife named Betsy (Choi Jin-sil) who was left by her husband to be with another woman. Later, when she is diagnosed with stomach cancer, her family finally realizes what she means to them. The series ended when Betsy and her husband went to a honeymoon trip where she eventually dies. Such a tearjerker!
Here’s A Rosy Life opening theme from Youtube.

I still don’t get it why some people commits suicide. The world is still beautiful no matter how chaotic our life will be. God bless her soul…

You’re right life is still beautiful! As for me, even if I’m in the lowest point in my life I will never consider suicide, kasi God will not give us something we can’t handle. Some difficulties in life are given to us so that we can be stronger.

Nagulat ako’t bakit nakarating sa blog mo ang Korean actress. Kawawa naman, mas lalo tuloy siyang sumikat dahil napag-usapan yung pag-suicide niya.
Ang kasikatan nga naman, di pala nagbibigay ng happiness ano.

Pangalawang post ko na yan about Korean actress, yun nga lang puro nag suicide. Pinanood ko kasi yung mga shows nila na ipinalabas sa GMA7. Yung series ni ChoiJinsil, heavy drama kaya naki-iyak din ang lola mo, haha.

Not familiar with her as well, but the story of her life is sad.
Who do you think is the Philippine equivalent of her in terms of acting skills and popularity?

Being one of South Korea’s most popular actresses, siguro counterpart nya dito sila Maricel Soriano.
I guess mas kilala sya ng mga nakapanood talaga sa show niya. Mas kilala ko nga sya as Betsy eh!

Am not familiar with Choi, but she’s too young and pretty to die. Di man lang kami nag pang abot hehe. I guess Korea is one of the highest number of suicides in the world. Madami din sa Japan. Kakatakot.

OO nga, at karamihan sa kanila nag su-suicide dahil sa depression, madali silang magpatalo sa emosyon. Hindi ba kasama ang Pinas dyan? Dami ko rin kasing nababasa sa dyaryo eh.

OMG! I’ve watched that series. She should have consulted a Psychiatrist for her depression. Sayang naman siya!
BTW, yeah Botox can eliminate fine lines under the eyes. I’ll undergo another session dun naman sa gilid ng eyes. Hahaha…. vain talaga noh?
