Former racing model and YouTuber Han Sun Wol’s death has been belatedly revealed through various online platforms.
According to the police on the 25th of June, Han Sun Wol was found dead at her residence in Seo-gu, Incheon, around the middle of this month. She was 32 years old.
As a result of the police investigation, it was reported that no suspicion of her murder was found but the cause of death will not be shared.
Han Sun Wol’s death was first reported through online communities. Her real name and date of birth were found in the search results of the “online ancestral ritual” function on a funeral home website, and when it was discovered that her name matched that of the resident and her husband, the news of her death quickly spread.
Han Sun Wol gained recognition by participating as a racing model in events such as the 2016 Automotive Week, the 2017-2018 Seoul Auto Salon, and the 2019 Seoul Motor Show and Auto Salon Week.
She later worked as an influencer, including as a YouTuber, TikToker, and BJ on a paid subscription-type adult platform. No YouTube video has been uploaded to her channel since the 9th of June, and her Instagram account has also been deleted.
Meanwhile, the production team of SBS current affairs and culture program ‘Curious Stories Y’ announced through their official SNS account in the afternoon that they were conducting a report on Han Sun Wol before her tragic sudden passing.
