South Korean R&B Singer Wheesung Found Dead in His Apartment at Age 43
Renowned South Korean R&B singer Wheesung, born Choi Whee-sung, was found dead in his Seoul apartment on March 10, 2025, at the age of 43.
Emergency responders discovered him unresponsive after his mother called for assistance. Authorities reported that a significant amount of time had elapsed since his death, and an autopsy has been requested to determine the cause.
Wheesung was scheduled to perform in Daegu on March 15, alongside singer KCM. In his final social media post, he announced the upcoming concert, writing, “Weight loss completed. See you on March 15.”
Born on February 5, 1982, Wheesung began his career in 1999 with the boy band A4 but left after the first album due to musical differences. He launched a successful solo career in 2002 with the album “Like a Movie,” which received praise from prominent artists like Seo Tai-ji and Shin Seung-hun.
Throughout his career, Wheesung faced personal challenges, including a suspended jail sentence in 2021 for propofol use. Despite these struggles, he remained a significant figure in the Korean music scene, known for his soulful R&B ballads and powerful vocals.
