Many colleagues are shedding tears as singer the late Wheesung departs. They bid their final farewell while reminiscing about the music and stages shared with him during his lifetime.
Hwanhee, a member of the group Fly to the Sky, posted on his social media on the 12th, "Wheesung, I still can't believe it. Let's meet again later. When we do, let's sing our music as much as we can. Until then, just rest comfortably." He conveyed his farewell while grieving the sudden passing of the late Wheesung.
Along with the message, Hwanhee posted a photo featuring Wheesung. It was from when they appeared together on the cable channel Mnet's entertainment program "The Call," capturing their synergy on stage. He also shared a photo of Wheesung smiling, mourning the late singer.
Not only Hwanhee but also many colleagues who shared music and memories with the late Wheesung gathered to send him off on his final journey. Singer Jessie, who also had been part of the same agency as Wheesung, expressed on social media, "You inspired me and many others so much. Your voice delivered emotions deeply and genuinely," adding, "Your music created moments that uplifted the soul every time. You received so much love; you will be greatly missed."
Jessie continued, "The world has lost a legend, but your music will live on forever," and wrote, "Rest in peace, brother. Your influence and kindness will never be forgotten," while sharing her final farewell with the late Wheesung.
Singer Ailee also shared a video of her performances with Wheesung on social media, saying, "Brother, I cried so much yesterday while looking for the pictures we took together, and there isn't a single normal photo. That's so us. I watched our performances together, and we were so happy. I wish we had more shows together."
Ailee stated, "Sometimes you were a strict producer, at other times, it felt like you were just teasing me like a real brother. Sometimes, you were the most amazing senior... You know you were the most precious connection in my life, right? The reason I can still sing in Korea is all thanks to you, and I'm so grateful and touched. You were my best partner, and you will always be my brother. Thank you so much. I'm so sorry. I will miss you a lot. Let's meet again someday to sing joyfully together."
Singer Seven, who had been with YG Entertainment, also expressed his condolences, writing, "Rest in peace. I hope you find happiness there."
Meanwhile, Solar, a member of the junior group Mamamoo, expressed her farewell to senior Wheesung with the message, "Thank you for creating wonderful songs with us who had nothing before Mamamoo's debut, and for singing with us. We will not forget the wonderful music. Rest in peace."
Wheesung was found in cardiac arrest at an APT. in Gwangjin District, Seoul, on the afternoon of the 10th. He was 43 years old. According to the National Institute of Scientific Investigation, the initial verbal opinion from the autopsy resulted in an "unknown cause of death."
The funeral hall will be set up at Samsung Seoul Hospital starting on the 14th, with the burial scheduled for March 16, and the final resting place at Gwangneung Memorial Park.
Wheesung's brother conveyed through the late singer's agency, "To everyone who knew my brother and anyone who has memories of happiness from his songs and music during his life, please don't hesitate to visit the funeral hall comfortably, and it would be greatly appreciated if you could be there to keep him company on his final journey."
