I was so shocked by the tragic and sudden death of Coffee Prince Lee Eon!!!! Didn't know it until i read an article in "My Paper" on 25th August. I just finished watching his 2nd drama "Who Are You" and here comes the unbelievable news.
This was what happened apparently:
Up and coming actor Lee Eon passed away in a motorcycle accident early this morning on August 21. He was coming back from a wrap-up party for his recent drama Strongest Chilwoo when he crashed into a guard rail. He was not breathing when the police found him at the scene and was rushed to the hospital. However, the doctors were not able to resuscitate him. According to police reports, the accident occurred when Lee Eon was attempting to change lanes as the road changed from 2 lanes to 1.
Fans of Lee Eon also pointed out that he left a message on his minihompy on July 15 saying “It’s too early to die.”
Actor Gong Yoo (lead actor of coffee prince Han-gyeol) expressed his mourning for his dear friend Lee Eon's death on the mini homepage.
Gong Yoo posted a picture of Lee Eon from the "Coffee Prince" days on the main page. The two started their friendship through this drama.
His message to Lee Eon goes something like this, " It's weird, I was listening to the radio message you gave me again when I was at the military camp the night before you left us and I had the urge to call you. I should have called you. I should have called you to nag you to change the silly ringtone you never change. Sorry. "
It is known that the two were like real brothers.
Gong Chan cried until eyes swollen.....
Han-gyeol sends his Hyung on his last journey.. Can imagine how sad he will be in camp.. Haizzz..
