I really cannot stop crying, Jonghyun…
I have loved you for 7 years… I have seen you once during SHINee’s second concert in Singapore and I have never regretted going. At all.
But… I never expect I would see the news of your death.. especially by suicide.

According to Korean news website, Kim was found unconscious in a service apartment that he checked into 2 days ago. He was pronounced dead when he was taken to the hospital.
Well-liked for his charming personality and melodious voice, the singer-songwriter made his showbiz debut as part of SHINee alongside Onew, Minho, Taemin and Key in 2008.
In recent years, he ventured into a solo career, belting out hits like “Crazy”, “She is” and “Deja Boo”. His latest album “Story Op.2” was released in April. He wrote 10 songs in that album.
