Police and emergency officers initially found Lee in what they believed was an unconscious
state in the car parked on a street in northern Seoul. Emergency officers later confirmed he was
dead, according to Seoul’s Seongbuk police station.
Police had been searching for Lee, 48, after receiving a report that he was missing.They
refused to provide further details including whether they had determined Lee killed himself. But
South Korean media outlets including Yonhap news agency said that Lee’s family earlier
Wednesday reported to police that he left home after leaving a message similar to a suicide
note.Lee appeared in “Parasite,” which won Oscars for best picture and three other categories
in 2020. The class satire was the first non-English-language film to win best picture in the
then-92-year history of the Academy Awards, and was the first South Korean movie to win an
Oscar. In the film, Lee played the head of a wealthy family.
The film’s cast, including Lee, also won a Screen Actors Guild award for the best motion picture
ensemble cast in 2020. He was nominated for best actor at the International Emmy Awards for
his performance in the sci-fi thriller “Dr. Brain” last year, as well.
Even before “Parasite,” Lee had been a popular actor in South Korea for a long time. He rose to
stardom for his role in a hit TV drama series, “Coffee Prince (2007),” and gained mainstream
popularity with a series of hit TV dramas such as “Behind The White Tower (2007),” “Pasta
(2010)” and “My Mister (2018).”Lee had been under a police investigation into allegations that
he used illegal drugs at the residence of a bar hostess. Lee insisted he was tricked into taking
the drugs and that he did not know what he was taking, according to Yonhap. But the
investigation prompted extensive tabloid coverage and unconfirmed online rumors about not
only his alleged drug use but also his private life. Lee filed a suit against two people including
the hostess, alleging they blackmailed him.
When he was first summoned for questioning at a police station in Incheon, a city near Seoul, in
late October, he deeply bowed several times and apologized to his fans and family. “I feel sorry
to my family members who are enduring too difficult pains at this moment. I again sincerely
apologize to everyone,” he said.
Incheon police said Wednesday they would end their investigation of Lee’s drug use allegations
but would continue to investigate the two people Lee had sued.
South Korea has strict anti-drug laws but has seen soaring drug-related offenses in recent
years. Last week, the National Police Agency said it had detained about 17,150 people over
alleged illegal drug manufacturing, smuggling, sales and uses this year — a record number for a
single year.
South Korea has long had the highest suicide rate among developed countries. It has also
experienced a string of celebrity suicides involving K-pop stars, prominent politicians and
business executives. Experts say malicious and abusive online comments and severe
cyberbullying were blamed for many of the celebrity suicides.“Lee faced some allegations but
they haven’t been formally verified. But the media has been assertively reporting about Lee’s
private life … and I think that’s something wrong,” said Kang Youn-gon, a media communication
professor at Seoul’s Chung-Ang University.Despite being a prominent figure in the public eye,
