The beautiful Korean actress, Choi Jin-Shil was found hanged in her shower at her home. Her body was found at 6:15 am on October 2nd, and police are conducting an investigation.
Police said, “We received a report that Ms. Choi had committed suicide and arrived to confirm her death.”
Another officer: “This morning, we received a report from her family that she had hanged herself in the shower stall.”
Choi recently went through hard times while helping support her friend Jung Sun-hee, widow of Ahn Jae-hwan. Many suspected that Choi had lent him money, which she said was not true.
Choi Jin-shil recnetly went through a nasty divorce to baseball player, Jo Sung-min, and has two young children, ages 5 and 7 years-old.
Reports stated:
Choi Jin-shil was found to have commited suicide in her home in Seocho-gu, Seoul. According to the police, her body was found this morning in her bathroom at 6.15am and they are now investigating. “We received news of her suicide and went to verify it. We are now investigating,” said the police. It was later revealed by another police officer that her mother had called the police after discovering that she had hanged herself in the bathroom.
She is likely to have been pushed over the edge over the fact that she had a hand to play in Ahn Jae Hwan’s death who committed suicide last month by lending him 2.5M USD. But she had alleged that it was a malicious rumor and had threatened legal action. She leaves behind her ex-husband and children. My condolences to her family members. We didn’t need this.
This is such a tragic loss, especially to a mother of two young children. Our condolences to Choi Jin-Shil’s family and friends.

It is sad to give up on life when you are beautiful and famous. Sad to see her go. It is a loss to her fans in her country and around the world. People are frail no matter how powerful they are. You pressure someone and they will react. For evey action there is a reaction. This is her reaction to the pressure placed on her hands regarding the loan she says there was no loan to a fellow actor whom committed suicide a month ago. It is pretty sad. Pressure took her life. Some people are not able to cope with things. Alcohol was her recourse and ultimately suicide. You will be missed pretty lady.
