Her family is currently in deep sorrow. They hoped that people would refrain from discussing details about So Jin and expressed that they would like to quietly send her off on her final trip," said the agency. "As we would like to follow their wishes, we are releasing an official statement. Please refrain from writing speculative articles and malicious comments."
So Jin was found collapsed on a flower bed near an apartment in Daejeon. She was quickly sent to the hospital, but she was unable to recover.
So Jin was a trainee at DSP Media, where she trained for five years. She participated in the Kara Project: The Beginning in 2013, but was unfortunately eliminated. She and her agency ended her contract in January.
