I am sure you would do it nicely if you choose to post. But really – it is a funeral. Why wouldn’t the paparazzi leave them alone to mourn?

I wouldn’t expect you to post the pics without doing it in a respectful manner. This is a sad time for the friends and family of Jang Ja-Yeon and any posting of the funeral should be done in good taste.

Salut
Je trouve cela honteux de publier les photos .
Qu’on laisse tranquille sa famille , c’est des photos personnelles et je trouve cela déguelasse que certaines personnes demandent à les voir , c’est vraiment des gens sans respect , j’ai honte pour leur curiosité morbide O_O

Merci de ne pas les publier par respect pour sa mémoire et sa famille

Bonne continuation à l’équipe de Dramabeans bisous à vous

I also voted no, but not out of a respect for the privacy of family and friends. I am more worried about the glamorization of suicide, and the fact that often celebrity suicides and their heavy publicity seem to spark copycat suicides in the general public. According to what I have read on the net so far – I have just started research on this – suicide is the leading cause of death for Koreans in their 20s and 30s. The rate is even higher than in Japan.
Instead of runway-style shots of celebrities in dark glasses on their way to the wake, publicity should focus on suicide prevention and publicize treatment options and help centers. I know there may are a lot of cultural roadblocks, but surely change is possible…

Post according to your conscience. It’s up to you. If you do decide to post, just add Heed warning for the readers that prefer not to see it.

Edit: Just read that you decided not to post^_^

I feel like the emphasis of those pictures are placed on the celebrities attending and not on the mourning of the deceased (may she rest in peace). It’s a very very sad deal as it is, and I think the family and friends deserve complete privacy. This is such a sensitive topic, but I’m glad you’re going with what you believe.

I voted no, btw.
