South Korea shaken by celebrity suicide


Actress Cheo Jin Sil, suicide has gripped the nation, dominating headlines as authorities, relatives and even the government tries to determine what went wrong. It should not be that hard to figure out the reason underlying such an unfortunate eventuality. The late actress's life symbolizes the difficulties faced by a single, working, divorced mom in a deeply conservative yet tech savvy society. Choe may have killed herself in a momentary according to the investigative team, driven by malicious rumors and prolonged stress but nothing can deny stress of living with a pariah status in South Korean society. Choi spoke openly on the taboo topic and sought to change the unpopular public perception of single moms in South Korea. Korean society has never liked strong women, and thinks single moms have a personality disorder. South Korean society must shed this medieval psychology and become a support system for single mothers before taking any further lives.

Only problem with that analogy was none of the Korean actresses or even the former president of S. Korea did drugs or live the fast life like the typical hollywood types. Therefore the report is accurate when they mention Korean society is tech savvy but still highly conservative.
