A post from a passerby revealed that the actress Shin Sekyung recently visited the grave of her late ex-boyfriend Jonghyun, who passed away 7 years ago, along with friends. Accordingly, she brought flowers and redecorated the grave.
Their love story continues to bring sorrow and regret to many.
In October 2010, SHINee’s Jonghyun was caught in a series of intimate photos with actress Shin Se Kyung. At the time, Jonghyun was at the peak of his career, and the dating news was difficult for hundreds of thousands of fans to accept.
Fans even threatened and took down Shin Se Kyung’s personal blog. Unable to withstand the public pressure, the couple broke up shortly after. During SHINee’s fan meeting in Taiwan, Jonghyun tearfully apologized to the fans.
On December 18, 2017, the Korean entertainment industry was shaken by the news that Jonghyun was found in critical condition due to carbon monoxide poisoning in a closed room. Despite being rushed to the hospital, the singer did not survive. Depression is believed to be the reason that led Jonghyun to seek relief.
On the day of the funeral, Shin Se Kyung also appeared to bid farewell to her ex-boyfriend for the last time. Her face was dazed as she quietly paid her respects to Jonghyun. According to witnesses, she was unable to hold back her tears when she saw Jonghyun’s portrait. The actress stayed at the funeral for two hours before leaving.
