Ahn Jae Hwan (36) was found dead in his black mini van this morning. According to the police, the late actor had been horribly decomposed, hinting that Ahn Jae Hwan was dead at least two to ten days prior to being found.
The exact reason of his suicide is not known at the moment, but many are speculating that it’s from his failing business ventures.
Ahn Jae Hwan faced various difficulties ever since he entered the business world. After the launch of a cosmetic brand with his wife, Jung Sun Hee, the two resorted to borrowing money from loan sharks to keep the business moving. He was also involved in productions, which ended prematurely due to funding earlier this year.
Upon hearing the news about her husband, comedian Jung Sun Hee fainted and was escorted to the nearest hospital.
Ahn Jae Hwan expressed his love to his wife in his suicide letter, making this situation even more tragic.
RIP Ahn Jaw Hwan and deepest condolences to his family and friends.

this is so sad,but at the back of my mind i can help thinking “How selfish”. Im just glad that they didn’t have any kids together,because that would be extremely sad.
That is terrible…he probably didn’t know where to turn…Honestly I can’t imagine how he feels…I’m going crazy over 3000 in debt….lawd…I hope Jung Sung hee stays strong..
OMG they just got marreid last year
i remember seeing their wedding on tv (kbs world)
I really feel sorry for his wife Jung Sun Hee she is really adorable and funny
i agree with kimchikimi “how selfish”
umm…who is he?
didnt his wife realize that he’s been missing for the past 2-10 days…?
Loan sharks? I hope it’s not a homicide, or I’ll be really worried about Jung Sun Hee. Oh man, this is too sad. I wish Jung Sun Hee gets lots of support from her colleauges and admirers. RIP.
whats that thing on the picture, that has a circle on it?
dolla…his wife didn’t know…she was with her parents for the last few days.
omg =( my condolences to his wife, family and friends.
Why are so many people dying this year??? It’s really sad, you know? I had the same thoughts, “how selfish” but I’m sure he tried to endure things for a long time until he couldn’t take it anymore…
How sad. I hope it wasnt loan sharks that staged this. I watch too many movies. :/ So many typos it almost ruins the report, my fav one has to be ‘his husband’. No snarky comments? This must be a first. And the korean media is really getting on my nerves with the whole no privacy thing. Pics of the inside of the van?! Sick.
yeah, pictures of his decay-stained carseat…goes beyond decent & ethics of reporting, esp. it’s a celebrity people know about. morbid & gross. shame on the photographers!
in an ideal world, i wish someone like bae yong-joon would set up some emergency fund or financial counseling for the always cash-strapped celebs who aren’t top stars in korean showbiz. yeah it’s a competitive biz, but should so many people be offing themselves?
oh gosh. look at how happy they are and all smiles in that picture. it’s painful. i always enjoyed watching jung sun hee on heroine 6. my condolences as well.
i always loved jung sun hee
i hope she’s okay
OMG this is sad on POPSEOUL i thougl they said his wife, who i know better, but its sad all the same…i feel so bad and I give my conolences to his wife and family…
retard.
but my deepest condolences.
rip
aw so sad….I can’t even begin to think he’s “selfish” What does a person go through to KILL THEMSELVES? take away their own lives that’s deep. deeper then being selfish imho. My heart goes out to his wife…shes so funny on heroine 6
money is the true enemy and always be.
it drives people to do things they shouldn’t.
mos def they have my condolences.
shit i know how it feels to be in debt…i don’t even want to begin to think how bad it is when it’s up in the million range…
awh, rip.
thats so tragic =[
didn’t his wife call him during 2-10 days?? what was she doing not checking on her husband??
Sad to see this happen in Korea. The korean debt collection system suck but so does their unofficial business of loans and stuff. It’ll make the american mafia and their loan sharks look like hello kitty.
Sad state of affairs Korea is in and their celebrities need better protection from the mob mentality of the media and defamers.
