Police are investigating the “mysterious” death of South Korean pop singer Choi Song Bong, following he sent a letter apologizing for what he described as his “foolish mistakes” following his false claim that he had cancer.
Bong, who became famous through the talent show “Korea Got Talent”, died at the age of 33, as police found him dead at his home in Seoul, on Tuesday.
The police believe that the pop singer committed suicide, following he published an apology this week on his YouTube channel, for claiming to have cancer, and for obtaining donations from people who sympathized with him under the pretext of undergoing treatment.
In his letter, Bong said, “I sincerely apologize to all those who have suffered from my foolish mistakes. I have made repeated mistakes. I have returned everyone who asked for donations back to me.”
Bong’s death comes two years following he aroused controversy when he launched a fundraising campaign for his treatment, following claiming he had cancer, only to be revealed later on by the pop singer’s lie.
