The funeral procedures for singer Wheesung have been put on hold.

According to OSEN's confirmation on the 11th, it has been confirmed that there is a possibility that Wheesung's funeral procedures may be omitted.

Earlier, the agency TAJOYENT issued an official statement saying, "On March 10, our artist Wheesung passed away. He was found in a state of cardiac arrest at his home in Seoul and was pronounced dead." He was 43 years old.

Wheesung was found collapsed in cardiac arrest around 6:29 p.m. at his APT. located in the Gwangjin District of Seoul. Emergency responders, notified by his family, performed cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) and other emergency measures, but he was pronounced dead while still in cardiac arrest.

The cause of death has not yet been revealed. So far, no signs of external intrusion or criminal suspicion have been identified, and the Gwangjin Police Station in Seoul announced that they plan to request an autopsy from the National Institute of Scientific Investigation (NISI) to investigate the cause of Wheesung's death.

In addition, the delay in Wheesung's funeral procedures has attracted attention. The agency noted, "Details regarding the funeral will be provided separately." According to OSEN's confirmation, sources say discussions are ongoing about whether to proceed with Wheesung's funeral, and there is a possibility that the funeral procedures may be omitted.

However, the reason the funeral is not being held promptly is reportedly due to the family's extreme shock. Given that the deceased left this world suddenly, the family's grief is indescribable.

The entertainment industry is also in mourning over the sudden news of Wheesung's passing. KCM, who was scheduled to hold the 'Wheesung X KCM Concert in Daegu' at the Daegu EXCO Auditorium on the 15th, said, "We are also in a state of great shock," and expressed condolences, saying, "After the sad news broke, we finally heard from the concert planning company that the concert has been canceled."

Additionally, figures from the music industry such as Yoon Min-soo, Verbal Jint, Harisu, Paloalto, Lee Chang-min of 2AM, Jo Kwon, Changmo, Haeng-joo, and Greg are expressing their condolences through personal accounts.

Meanwhile, Wheesung, who debuted in 2002 with 'Ain't It?' has shown numerous hit songs such as 'With Me', 'The Day We Met Again', 'Uncurable Disease', 'One Year', 'A Heartbreaking Story', 'I Thought About Marriage', 'Love Is Delicious♡', and 'Insomnia'.
