Actress Yoo Ju Eun took her own life at the young age of 27.
On August 29th, late Yoo Ju Eun's older brother updated her Instagram with her last words. In a caption, he wrote Yoo Ju Eun passed away on August 29th and the funeral process will take place on August 31st. In the end, he added he was sharing her note to grant her last wish.
Born in 1995, the late actress wrote in her note, "I'm sorry that I'm leaving ahead of everyone else. Especially mom, dad, grandma, and brother. My mind is screaming that I don't want to live anymore. You may feel void without me but please stay strong. I'll be watching over you. Please don't cry. It's not good for your health.
I'm not sad at all. In fact, I'm very calm. Maybe because I've been thinking about it for a long time.
I've lived such a happy life which I don't deserve. So I am content. This is enough. So please don't blame anyone and move on.
I'm not dead. So please live a good life everyone. I hope to see many people at my funeral and everyone could see if anyone is going through something.
I really wanted to do acting. Maybe it was my everything or just a part of me. But then it wasn't easy to pursue that life. I didn't want to do anything else. That was devastating. I realized having a dream is a blessing and a curse at the same time.
I'm sure God won't send me to hell because he loves me. He will listen and take care of me. So don't worry everyone.
And to my dear family, friends, and loves. Thank you for adoring me and loving me. It was my strength and my laughter as well. I think I lived a successful life because I'm taking unforgettable memories till the end. Thank you for understanding and putting up with me. I'm sorry I couldn't be more expressive. But I hope you'd understand.
And to all of you who knew me, especially teachers, thank you so much and I respected you. Thank you for teaching me many things about life.
Mom, dad, I love you. Please don't cry. I'm pleading."
We hope she can rest in peace and our condolences to her loved ones.
If you or someone you know is at risk of self-harm or suicide, seek help as soon as possible by contacting agencies specializing in crisis intervention and suicide prevention in the United States and abroad.
It's somehow *extra* tragic to see a sentence like, "I've lived such a happy life which I don't deserve," in a suicide note. It's remarkable how she spent her final letter just trying to comfort everyone she would leave behind. This is so extremely sad.
