The passing of “Parasite” actor Lee Sun-kyun is deeply affecting his loved ones as they gather to pay their final respects and say goodbye during the funeral service.
Lee’s funeral took place in Seoul on Friday, where a sizable gathering observed as his casket was carefully placed into the hearse. During the service and procession, his wife became overwhelmed with grief and broke down in tears.
We previously reported that Lee was discovered deceased inside his vehicle on Wednesday, following what appears to be suicide. According to his lawyer, Lee had been facing intense scrutiny from law enforcement due to allegations involving a scheme where he was deceived into consuming marijuana and subsequently blackmailed by two individuals, a man, and a woman.
Attorneys for Lee claim he pleaded with detectives in Incheon, a Seoul suburb, not to disclose the inquiry after detaining and interrogating him for nearly 19 hours last week.
In the United States, Lee gained the most recognition for his portrayal as the father in the Academy Award-winning movie “Parasite.”
The two individuals suspected of being involved in the plot were taken into custody on the day preceding Lee’s passing.
