Actor Song Jae Rim’s tragic death at the age of 39 has left the entertainment world in shock, sparking an outpouring of tributes from colleagues and fans alike.

On Tuesday, celebrity chef and television personality Hong Seok Cheon took to social media to express his sorrow: “It breaks my heart that I’ll never see your wonderful smile again. The emptiness of saying goodbye without having properly cared for you is overwhelming.”

He continued, “I’m so sorry. I failed as your older brother. Rest in peace.” Hong shared a heartfelt photo of the late actor smiling brightly beside him, intensifying the sense of loss.

Jung Eun Pyo, who worked alongside Song Jae Rim on the hit drama Moon Embracing the Sun, also paid tribute. “Goodbye, may your journey be happy,” he wrote. 

Lee Yoon Ji, who starred with Song Jae Rim in the 2022 film Good Morning, shared a deeply emotional message: “This can’t be happening. I’ll remember your pure soul. I hope you can live freely now.”

Song Jae Rim was found deceased at his home on Tuesday. According to police, there were no signs of foul play, though a note was reportedly found at the scene.
