In a heartbreaking turn for the Korean entertainment world, actress Kang Seo Ha has passed away at the age of 31 after a battle with cancer. A rising talent who carved her space with subtle performances and deep emotional range, Kang’s untimely death has left fans and colleagues reeling with disbelief.
According to reports in Soompi, a memorial altar has been set up at Room 8 of the funeral hall at Seoul St. Mary’s Hospital, with the funeral procession scheduled for 7:40 a.m. on July 16. She will be laid to rest at her family’s burial site in Haman, Gyeongnam Province.
A personal goodbye that broke hearts
While the news of her passing came as a shock, it was a video tribute posted by a presumed family member on July 13 that truly captured the emotional depth of the loss. The post talked about the actress enduring excruciating pain, and how Kang never stopped thinking about those around her. She reportedly continued paying for her loved ones’ meals even when she couldn’t eat herself and bore the brunt of her illness with grace, only ever expressing gratitude that things weren’t worse. The emotional tribute ended with a gut-wrenching farewell: “I hope you are only happy and free from pain where you are now.”
