Lee Eon dies in accident

Oh, man.

Model-turned-actor Lee Eon (also spelled Lee Un, most famously of Coffee Prince) has died in a motorcycle accident.

The 27-year-old, born Park Sang-min, was on his way home following the wrap party for KBS’s Strongest Chil Woo early on the morning of August 21. He was riding a motorcycle and ran into the guardrail of the overpass, and is said to have died almost immediately.

The news has shocked everyone; online, netizens are abuzz in disbelief. Just the night before, he had been onscreen in Chil Woo‘s finale episode, and the sudden news is, to say the least, startling.

Lee Eon got his start modeling, but shot to mainstream levels of fame when he took on the role of simple-hearted but lovable Min Yub in last year’s Coffee Prince. He followed that with a stint as a cable-TV MC, then returned to dramas with Who Are You? and, most recently, Strongest Chil Woo.

RIP.

I’m preety saddened by this news as well. He seemed like a genuine nice down to earth guy and all of a sudden just when his star status gets to climb up, his life is cut short. I just hope that his family members and all his loved ones are consoled that everyone including his fans are praying for him.

This is so sad, I still can't believe it. Lee Eon was adorable in Coffee Prince and his career was just starting to take off. In hindsight, it seemed like he sensed his time would be short, making one series after another in quick succession - from Coffee Prince then Who Are You? and lastly, Strongest Chil Woo in the past year. I will always remember Lee Eon fondly as a sweet angel with a pure heart. RIP.

i woke up to this news this morning. my friend txted me about it and i even asked her if she got the right name. when she said the it's the dorky, lovable Min Yeop of Coffee Prince, my heart dropped! i still can't believe it! Chilwoo is still airing here in the Philippines. it's gonna be sad watching it knowing "Jaja" is gone. :(

+ RIP Lee Eon

hm. just got the news today in Singapore... he definitely deserves more than a small column in the newspaper. It's such a pity, having been in the limelight for no more than a year... and he can barely celebrate completely the release of his second drama serial. it's so sad :(:(:(

How Creepy. I don't know what is happening, but in this year of 2008 we have seen a lot of deaths of many stars around the world. Sigh, we are losing all our good talent.
