Recently, Korean media reported that male singer Choi Seong Bong, runner-up of Korea Got Talent 2011, was found dead on June 21 after making an extreme choice. He is currently resting in the hospital after the Institute of Scientific Investigation completed the autopsy.
Singer Choi Seong Bong passed away at the age of 33.
However, 3 days have passed and the funeral has not been held because no family members of Choi Seong Bong have come to claim his remains. He is classified as an unidentified deceased.
In 2011, when he appeared on Korea's Got Talent , he revealed that he was abandoned by his biological parents when he was only 3 years old and raised in an orphanage. Choi Seong Bong's assistant said that he will organize the funeral on behalf of his family next week.
It is known that Choi Seong Bong committed suicide due to regret for faking cancer to get donations from fans in 2021.
At that time, Choi Seong Bong moved fans with his will to live despite having to fight 3 diseases: colon cancer, prostate cancer and thyroid cancer. The male singer said that the cancer had metastasized to the liver and lungs but could not continue the surgery because the cost was too high. Many viewers were heartbroken by this news and sent donations to support Choi Seong Bong's surgery costs up to 1 billion won (about 18.2 billion VND).

However, a YouTuber spoke up to "expose" Choi Seong Bong for faking his illness by drinking and smoking while undergoing treatment. In addition, this YouTuber also revealed that the male singer bought an expensive foreign car and used fan donations to have fun at an entertainment facility.
Shortly after, the singer wrote a letter of apology to his fans and admitted his mistake, saying he would work hard to pay back the money. The Korean public was extremely angry and called for a boycott of the singer, ending Choi Seong Bong's career.
Before passing away, the male singer posted a letter, regretting his actions: "I sincerely apologize to those who have suffered damage and my foolish mistakes, I have made mistakes many times. In the past two years, I have returned donations to all those who have requested a refund. Now I am trying to pay for that sin with my life."
