The South Korean actor Kim Sung-min died after he committed suicide https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kim_Sung-min_(actor)

He isn't a popular actors, but the son of LG's vice-chief (according to Vietnamese new sites, but I didn't find same information on South Korean web sites)

Because the saying "money doesn't buy happiness" is true.

Very sad tho

After reaching the peak of their lives - money, love - they find out nothing will make them happy. They've a void that won't ever be filled.

money cant buy you happiness and sometimes causing more problems in your life

Korea is an alcohol abusing country. The pressure to succeed in the country's hierarchical society causing students to kill themselves when they dont make it into the top universities and rich business men to kill themselves because they realized they are not happy. This is why many koreans refer to South Korea as "Hell Chosun" because they literally feel like they are living in hell

Kim Sung Min was already an alcohol who threaten to kill himself numerous times when he got drunk. he wasnt happy with his life, marriage ect and finally succeeded in ending his life. R.I.P

Suicide is such a touchy subject, it's not black and white. So many unfortunate factors play a part and it's so sad, omg. RIP Kim Sung-min

Because no matter how happy you are, you are truly never happy.

Because you can't buy emotions or a better mental state. Nobody is immune from mental health problems, no matter how rich or how poor.

What is music video in your avatar?

Not all suicide attempts end up in death. There are apparently 25 unsuccessful suicide attempts for every suicide death.

That depends. For example, most people just leave behind everything for the money, and lose it, thinking that it will comeback. Others may develop problems at some point later in their lives.

Sis, the keyword is committed

This. Need to know.

That's so not true

Money doesn't buy happiness, yes, but I think rich people commit suicide a lot because you're living the dream and goal -- it's almost like every strives to be wealthy or at least comfortable -- yet you're still not happy. I think that's when you realise you have all this worthless paper around you that can't buy you genuine love, comfort of happiness. You seem to have it all, but you don't have it all.

Emptiness.

Depression strikes everyone - rich or poor

When you have a lot of money, at one point of your life, you've tried it all. There's nothing exciting and they start feeling depressed, lonely, etc.
