“Becoming a star in the sky of the late green forest” Actor-Singer Chung Lim passed away at 37 after battling advanced stomach cancer

On the morning of the 21st, a funeral ceremony for the late Chung Lim was being held at Gangnam Severance Hospital.

In 2021, he revealed that he was working as a sales representative for a motorcycle company after getting married.

Particularly, Cho Mina, a fellow artist and acquaintance, expressed her grief on her SNS, saying, “Chung Lim was a bright and pure child I knew from BOF. I can still see his cheerful smile.” She continued, “My heart feels heavy as I think about how much pain and difficulty he must have endured. I pray that he rests in peace in a painless place. May he rest in peace.”

Chung Lim, who showed his talent as a singer and actor in various entertainment programs, unfortunately left this world without fully realizing his dreams.
