Eric of KBS2's Strongest Chil Woo is in extreme shock to learn of his co-star Lee Eon's death in a motorcycle accident. Eric received a message from his manager at 4am on 21 Aug that read "Lee Eon has passed away...we have to get to the hospital."
According to Eric's manager, the cast of Strongest Chil Woo were at a post-filming wrap-up party at a restaurant in Yeouido since 6pm on 20 Aug, and Lee Eon stayed with everyone and only left at 1am.
Eric's manager added, "At the party Lee Eon kept on smiling and laughing, going around to thank the crew members who had worked very hard for the drama."
"Lee Eon used to be a DJ at clubs and was very interested in music, and he often chatted with Eric about music as well. Everyone was in such high spirits at the party and to receive such news now, it's unbearable."
Eric's manager continued, "Eric is usually very quiet and shy, but he kept in close and frequent contact with Lee Eon, and they have gotten as close as brothers."
27-year-old Lee Eon was riding his motorcycle on the elevated roadway in Hannam-dong when he crashed into the guardrail. He is said to have died on impact.
Lee Eon made his debut in the movie Like A Virgin, and made his foray into television in 2007 in the MBC drama Coffee Prince. He had just recently concluded the filming of KBS2 drama Strongest Chil Woo with Eric.
