Kim Sae-ron‘s cause of death has been revealed … the young actress has tragically died by suicide.
According to Yonhap News Agency, Korean police say Kim — who was only 24 — was found dead at her home in Seoul on Sunday, and her death is being ruled as a suicide.
The news agency says a police official stated, “We believe she made an extreme choice and plan to handle it as a suicide.”
The Korean news outlet also notes Kim did not leave a suicide note behind.
Kim was discovered by a friend who visited her home, saw her deceased and called the police, according to reports.
She was a rising star in South Korea, due to break-out roles in films like “The Man from Nowhere,” and “The Neighbor.”
Kim’s career took an unfortunate turn in 2022 after a drunk-driving accident, where she was reportedly fined around $13,800. From then on, Kim had trouble landing new roles.
