He joined the Fantagio label’s trainee program at an early age and debuted with Astro in February 2016, which at the time had six members.
Several other young K-pop stars have died in recent years, including two suspected suicides over one month in 2019. The two women, who were close friends, had been the subject of intense online bullying.
