Stars pay their respects to Kim Minsoo
April 30th, 2008 News Flash
History repeats itself and so does K-pop history. Monday Kiz’s Kim Minsoo’s unfortunate death undeniably resembles Wanted’s Suh Jae Ho’s death back in 2004. Granted, the two were involved in two different types of accidents - motorcycle and car - but the fact that these two talented singers passed away when they started to receive the attention they truly deserved ties them together. And the fact that these two never got to experience their fame makes their deaths even more tragic.
Something like this should never happen again. Rest in peace Kim Minsoo.

AWWWW…. this is so sad!! but i didn’t know about wanted’s suh jae ho :[ R.I.P.
April 30th, 2008 at 11:22 am
that’s sad… rest in peace, minsoo.

Indeed, the fact that they were about to enjoy the fruits of their labour and recognition for their talents made their deaths all the more unfortunate. Perhaps, God is jealous of their talents and wants them by his side. Rest in peace.

How can God be jealous of their talents, Sabrina?
RIP

oh man… this is so sad! =`(…
April 30th, 2008 at 11:39 am
this is still unbelievable.
I was listening to Monday Kiz just this afternoon.
April 30th, 2008 at 11:39 am
RIP, once again.

A terrible loss to the Korean music industry. He was a wonderful vocalist, always singing with such emotion and feeling. The accident is much more tragic because he was in an accident four months ago, of which he was recovering from. He said he would not get on the motorcycle again, yet he did for one reason or another. I only wish, as a huge fan of Kim Minsoo and Monday Kiz, that somehow, the outcome of this had been different. It just seems like there could have been ways to prevent it, although I’m just kind of in a depressed mode right now and would like to think that way I suppose. What happens happens, but I will surely be grieving for the loss of this wonderful musician for a while…
Much condolences to his family, friends, fans, etc.

RIP! and i feel so bad for those they have left behind- I wonder if some of them were at Lim Sung Hoon’s funeral a few weeks ago…
April 30th, 2008 at 11:56 am
RIP
still can’t believe he’s gone!

This is terrible. So many deaths already, and it hasn’t even been half a year. Rest in peace, Kim Min Soo.
April 30th, 2008 at 12:06 pm
There’s quite a lot of k-stars who arrived and paid their last respects. It’s hard to believe he’s gone…so young…in his primie. RIP Minsoo.
April 30th, 2008 at 12:18 pm
RIP
ive never heard of him but he was cute!
gosh im sorry but mc mong is ughhh ugh ugh UGLY
April 30th, 2008 at 12:21 pm
@$ on my Mind,
Your comment was really inappropriate for more than one reason. Don’t want to waste my time though…
April 30th, 2008 at 12:23 pm
rest in peace kim min soo.
you’re passion for music and life will always be remembered.. deep condolences to his family and close friends.
April 30th, 2008 at 12:24 pm
didnt u just waste ur time by replying to my comment?
stupid
April 30th, 2008 at 12:28 pm
RIP
April 30th, 2008 at 12:33 pm
RIP Kim Minsoo
April 30th, 2008 at 12:33 pm
um . . . don’t you think “check out the grieving stars” to be just the teeny-tiniest bit of poor taste?
April 30th, 2008 at 12:34 pm
No, I didn’t. I wanted to let you know that what you said was inappropriate but I didn’t want to go through the trouble of telling you all the many many things wrong with your comment. I won’t say any more to you on this post because I’m in no mood, and this really isn’t the time and place for such bickerings.
April 30th, 2008 at 12:37 pm
then please go ahead and email them to me, because I’d be more than interested in hearing them.
April 30th, 2008 at 12:41 pm
RIP
April 30th, 2008 at 12:51 pm
@Figbash,
I wasn’t sure if you were referring to what I said, but I was talking to “$ on my Mind” and his/her comments. I do agree with you that the “check out the grieving stars” link was a bit in bad taste! ^^
April 30th, 2008 at 1:04 pm
RIP T_T
April 30th, 2008 at 1:31 pm
noo! i loved monday kiz!
this is so sad. a lot of people
are passing away this year.. TT_TT
RIP
April 30th, 2008 at 1:31 pm
RIP, dear Min Soo
My condoloncence for all his family and friends…
April 30th, 2008 at 1:53 pm
u know showing up to respect for the unfortunate is one thing but dressing up like you’re going over your friends house or to a party is just plain rude.
April 30th, 2008 at 2:07 pm
you’re right
April 30th, 2008 at 2:14 pm
So sad. And I’ve only started to get into their music. He was really talented. ;____;
Condolences to Lee Jin Sung! Gosh, it must be hard for him right now. I pray he and Minsoo’s family will be okay. T^T
April 30th, 2008 at 2:21 pm
I thought this was a double post, but it’s different. Anyway, again, it’s sad to hear about deaths of people still very young…
April 30th, 2008 at 2:33 pm
ah, all cleared up!
I think we can all agree that Korean social norms about fashion tend toward the . . . hm, glittery. Formal when westerners would be casual and sometimes frightfully casual when westerners would be formal. I’ve been to a few funerals where the clothing ran the gamut from formal hanbok in white, black suits, to . . .well, as friends say, “adjushis ruin everything.” More important is that people come and pay respects.
April 30th, 2008 at 2:38 pm
This is just so sad.
Just when he was on his way to fame?
Rest in Peace.
April 30th, 2008 at 3:29 pm
“Check out the Grieving Stars”..
Horrible choice of words. =(
April 30th, 2008 at 4:19 pm
^ you stole my line!
who else can we count on for delicious bad taste?
RIP KMS - too many depressing news lately.
April 30th, 2008 at 4:35 pm
I feel bad for him…
But now he should be safely next to God…:]
April 30th, 2008 at 5:32 pm
RIP.
this is such a pity. I just got into their music perhaps a month back and this happened >.<
May he rest in peace.
April 30th, 2008 at 5:42 pm
RIP
April 30th, 2008 at 6:24 pm
rest in peace.
my prayers are with you.
April 30th, 2008 at 6:35 pm
This has to be one of the saddest news yet. Though I’m not a fan, it’s always heartbreaking to see someone so young leave us behind. The love pouring forth is overwhelming so I’m sure he’s feeling the same way.
April 30th, 2008 at 6:38 pm
this news shocked me
i loved monday kiz
RIP kim minsoo
April 30th, 2008 at 6:49 pm
it is so sad that he died so young. R.I.P
April 30th, 2008 at 7:07 pm
April 30th, 2008 at 8:48 pm
i’m so shocked. im a big fan of monday kiz and its really a huge loss to the korean music industry. Hes such a talented singer. life is indeed precious and fragile. my condolences to everyone. it’ll take awhile for me to recover from the shock. Rest in peace- Lee Min Soo.
April 30th, 2008 at 8:51 pm
Rest in peace…
April 30th, 2008 at 9:10 pm
I guess SNSD couldn’t make it this time so this sent in the SUJU-fruits to appear like they give a crap, lol. SM…they never fail to digust me.
April 30th, 2008 at 11:46 pm
OmGosh. I can’t believe it!Such a talented singer.
Its really shocking, and i was just listening to their new album. May he rest in peace and hope his friends and family will soon recover from this shock.
May 1st, 2008 at 1:26 am
isn’t it “Lee Eon” (On) instead of “Lee Eun” ???
And I don’t think that’s Kim Kyong Rok either… the V.O.S. picture is him.
anyway, R.I.P. Kim MinSoo. He was a very talented singer..
May 1st, 2008 at 1:35 am
“God is jealous of thier talent?” Sabrina that doesn’t make any type of sense.
RIP.
May 1st, 2008 at 2:17 am
OMG. he had an AMAZING voice. so soulful..
i can’t believe this. So talented and young…

May 1st, 2008 at 4:24 am
RIP. T__T
I find it really rude how photographers come into freaking funerals.
And take pictures of celebrities at the worst (crying).
ERGH.
May 1st, 2008 at 4:47 am
omonahh! suju knows him??
i never heard of him but the mv from the previous post sounded amazing!
this is so sad
rip.
May 1st, 2008 at 5:22 am
Lina- Your last line is exactly what I think whenever I see one of those teenyboppers.
May 1st, 2008 at 5:35 am
god bless his soul .
May 1st, 2008 at 6:52 am
omgsh,
monday kiz’s songs were soo good, especially that one in new heart..
thats so unfortuate. ;(
May 1st, 2008 at 7:17 am
RIP…
Why do they take photos at a funeral? It’s a time to grieve, not to get some damn photos. It’s disrespectful, and I personally think it encourages some stars to come just to get their picture taken. Ugh…
Please, rest in peace Minsoo.
May 1st, 2008 at 8:08 am
rest in peace…
May 1st, 2008 at 8:11 am
it feels like turtle man’s death all over again!
anyways, i hope minsoo oppa is resting in peace, perheps singing his heart out up above…
May 1st, 2008 at 8:14 am
Yesung should take off his hat, because that is not really showing any respect at all
May 1st, 2008 at 8:29 am
ackk :[
R.I.P.
i hope his friends&family will be fine :[
May 1st, 2008 at 10:28 am
OH this is so sad….so many k-pop stars are dying now a days and the most i feel sorry for is their mothers, it must feel horrible to bury your own child…Maaan that sucks!!!
Condolences to his fams and friends…
May 1st, 2008 at 10:48 am
RIP to Kim Minsoo and condolences to his family.
I’m seriously about to cry right now, there’s been too many deaths this year than normal, it’s just not normal. Hopefully we will be spared grief, if I see another death I will just break down.
May God take care of these people and enjoy their amazing abilites for many, many years…
May 1st, 2008 at 1:10 pm
Condolences to his family and peers, this is very unfortunate
May 1st, 2008 at 10:56 pm
This news really make me awake. Recently i was stuck in love matter and i decided to commit suicide.
Suddenly i feel that i am the most stupid of all of has this thinking. Since god still giving me life, why i must terminated myself.
Like Kim, a talented but god take him away. I should learn to love myself and be thankful i am still alive.
Kim RIP. Thanks for the awaken on me.
Love,
Albee
