South Korean heartthrob and fan-favorite Song Jae-rim, known for his magnetic charm, smoldering looks, and ability to deliver a line with just the right amount of eyebrow raise, has sadly passed away at the age of 39. The beloved actor was found at his Seoul home, with no indication of foul play, according to the police. We’d all love a big β€œplot twist” here, but sometimes reality is more bittersweet than K-dramas.

The Korea Herald, after hearing collective gasps from fans worldwide, confirmed that Jae-rim’s farewell will take place at the Yeouido St. Mary’s Funeral Hall. Let’s hope it’s standing-room only because this guy had serious fan power!

Jae-rim’s career took off like a K-drama rollercoaster, especially with his role in 2012’s The Moon Embracing the Sun. Fans who saw him in this show were left wondering, β€œWait, who is this guy, and why is he so good at making historical headwear look cool?” His work was a blend of diverse genres, from steamy romances to emotional thrillers. Other memorable credits include Cool Guys, Hot Ramen (an accurate description of his entire vibe), Inspiring Generations, and Secret Mother. Rumor has it, even the title of Queen Woo was a nod to his fanbase β€” who wooed every time he appeared on screen.
