katyoun_hana 1,363 Posted January 7, 2014 Share Posted January 7, 2014 I know this is a very hard topic right now especially to ELFs but i just hope with this news, it'll brings a closure and will allow the family to grieve and mourn privately. I hope Leeteuk will stay strong and i know he have a very strong support system from his members and their families. The police department in charge of the investigation into the deaths of Leeteuk‘s father (Park Yong In), grandfather (Park Hyun Suk), and grandmother (Chun Kyung Tae) have released some concluding information about the case. According to the Dongjak Police Department, the bodies of Leeteuk’s father and grandparents were found at their house around 9:20AM on January 6 by Mr. Park’s nephew/niece, who then called the police. The grandparents were found strangled, lying side by side on a bed, while the father was in the same room hanging from a wardrobe handle. A suicide note was also discovered with the message, “I will take my parents and go to heaven together so live well.†It also had the message, “I am sorry to my children.†According to the investigation, after divorcing with Leeteuk’s mother in 1998, his father lived separately from his children with his parents. Starting in the past few years, Leeteuk’s grandfather started to suffer from dementia, and to make matters worse, Leeteuk’s grandmother, who had been taking care of her husband, was diagnosed and bedridden last year with late-stage lung cancer with the additional complication of dementia. Leeteuk’s father looked diligently after his parents, but with a debt of hundreds of millions of won due to business failure and the house seized, he had decided to put his parents into a convalescent hospital. However, a day before he would admit them into the hospital, Leeteuk’s father took the lives of his parents and committed suicide. The police stated, “We have made the provisional conclusion that Mr. Park took the lives of his parents and committed suicide due to being overwhelmed with his struggles. According to his family, Mr. Park suffered from depression.†The Dongjak Police Department also announced that it does not plan to hold an official briefing or to perform an autopsy on the deceased. It stated, “We judged that it is enough with just the deceased’s family’s testimony. With the cause of death comparatively clear, we will not be performing an autopsy.†Currently, the funeral is being held at the Korea University Guro Hospital.

jeong jaehyuns boyfriend 10,627 Posted January 7, 2014 Share Posted January 7, 2014 The first thing that comes to mind is oh my God. RIP to them and I hope Leeteuk and his family will be okay. Perhaps maybe if Leeteuk wasn't enrolled in the army right now he would have a better perspective on his father's struggles and could have helped him financially.

Leo's Candy Jelly Ho 3,458 Posted January 7, 2014 Share Posted January 7, 2014 Why are they putting their business out there? They could just say "Suicide due to personal reasons".....

AsYouLikeIt 609 Posted January 7, 2014 Share Posted January 7, 2014 Do they really have to say where the funeral's being held? The family's going through enough, the last thing they need is weird strangers, sasaengs, or even antis disturbing the funeral. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
doolicious 1,354 Posted January 7, 2014 Share Posted January 7, 2014 I feel terrible for Leeteuk. I would not want any of these private matters released to the public like this. That's just insane.

twinky 15,878 Posted January 7, 2014 Share Posted January 7, 2014 i think the official statement by the police is adequate so that people will stop inquiring about this matter anymore and not make any further speculations Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iiiiiiiii010101101iiiiiii 4,855 Posted January 7, 2014 Share Posted January 7, 2014 So where did the car accident story come from? Sounds suspicious. Suicide's social stigma/rep in Korea is kinda bad. They reported the death of one of the Samsung CEO's children as a car accident when it was really a suicide because of it, so if it's true that they did kill themselves it's understandable why it was reported as a car crash.

Blinket 2,355 Posted January 7, 2014 Share Posted January 7, 2014 I don't like how they're just telling the world Leeteuk's family's business I know news does that regularly, but usually they leave out names of the family members who weren't involved at the time it happened But they can't in this case, because everyone knows who the family is because he's famous. It's just really sad and I think the family should have an option to not have this news revealed. Also, why did they have to tell us specifically why he was stressed and all the family problems they had. This is just very uncomfortable and seems like everyone knows private things they shouldn't. Reminds me of Jaejoong and his family problems. I'm not sure if Leeteuk can continue comfortably as an idol after this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
