On the 21st, his agency King Kong by Starship said that Song Seung-heon's mother, Moon Myeong-ok, passed away that day. She was 77.
Song Seung-heon, the youngest of two sons and one daughter, is keeping vigil at the funeral home with his siblings and receiving mourners. Earlier, in 2020 he posted on social media, "Dear father, mother! I am happy to be your son. Please stay healthy together for a long time," sharing a post and photos that showed his deep affection for his parents. On broadcasts he also said "My mother is more beautiful than my father," conveying his exceptional family love, so this sad news has deepened fans' sorrow.
Song Seung-heon is currently appearing as Dokgo Cheol in the Genie TV original drama My Troublesome Star, which is set to end on the 23rd. He was originally scheduled to share his thoughts on the work and behind-the-scenes stories in a finale interview on the 25th, but OSEN reported on the 21st that Song Seung-heon decided to cancel the Genie TV original drama My Troublesome Star finale interview scheduled for the 25th, and that he will continue his period of mourning after the funeral and cancel related engagements.
When the sad news spread, internet users sent messages of condolence, saying, "It's so tragic, please stay strong," "He has always been very filial to his parents; how much his heart must hurt," and "We pray for the deceased's peace."
