Why Do So Many Korean Celebrities Kill Themselves?
The roster of recent celebrity suicides in Korea is getting longer and longer, with Lee Eun-joo, killing themselves since 2005. The numbers swell if actors or actresses who were either unknown when they took their lives or rose to fame only by committing suicide are included.Although there are no accurate statistics, Korean celebrities seem more prone to suicide than stars in the U.S., Europe or Japan. They experience the same pressures as their counterparts overseas in terms of the fickleness of fame and irregular lifestyles. So what is it that drives them so often to take their own lives?
◆ Suicide Capital of the World
For one thing, Korea as a whole has the world's highest suicide rate. For every 100,000 Koreans, 21.5 commit suicide, as against the OECD average of 11.1. Experts say celebrity suicides can provide insight into why Koreans tend to be more prone to taking their own lives."Koreans tend to form their sense of identity through how they are perceived by others and may give up and make drastic choices when they're no longer able to show their best side to others", said Hwang Sang-min, a psychologist at Yonsei University. "And that tendency is stronger among celebrities, whose livelihood depends on their popularity".
◆ Lack of Counseling Programs
"Three years ago, a singer employed by our agency showed signs of depression, refusing to leave home because of unfounded rumors circulating on the Internet, but was unable to get psychiatric help for fear that it would cause more rumors that he was seeing a shrink", the CEO of an entertainment agency said. Seeking psychiatric help is becoming more common among ordinary Koreans, but among celebrities it is still taboo.Large entertainment agencies in the U.S. and Japan hire professional counselors and regularly check the psychological health of their high-profile clients. Compounding the pressure on celebrities is the Internet, where every detail of their private lives is fodder for gossip or malicious comments. "I realized that celebrities these days have to watch out for so many things", said one top actress whose passing comment at a ceremony spread through the Internet and caused a major scandal."The fact that Korea is one of the world's most wired countries is a source of tremendous pressure for Korean celebrities", said Kang Tae-kyu, director of agency Music Farm. "A bigger problem is that talent agencies are operating like they did during the 1990s even though the environment has changed radically".
◆ Copy-Cat Suicides
Some experts cite copy-cat behavior as a reason behind increasing suicides among celebrities. Following the suicide of actress Lee Eun-joo in 2005, the rate of suicides among show-biz people increased markedly. But an even bigger problem is the impact celebrity suicides have on ordinary people."When famous people commit suicide, people who used to look up to them feel like they have no reason to live, since those who they considered better resorted to taking their own lives", said Oh Kang-seob, a psychiatrist at Kangbuk Samsung Hospital. "Such thinking spreads and actually raises the suicide rate. That is why celebrity suicides are even more worrisome".
p/s..sekarang giliran aku..
Aku nak ulas pasal dokumentary KBSW siarkan kat astro sebelum ni...
aku ingat dah nak lupakan sume benda berkaitan korea ni tp aku rase ad something yg kita bleh amik iktibar dari kisah korea ni..
Mungkin sume orang dah tau(peminat korean la)yg beberapa bulan yg lepas negara korea kehilangan sorang lg bintang dunia hiburan korean wave mereka..
Name si mati ni ialah PARK YONG HA..
lau nak tau,dia ni la yg berlakon dalam drama sedih winter sonata tu..
dia pegang watak hero kedua je tapi ok la kira watak utama jugak dalam tu..
sape yg layan korea memang tau sangat la sape dia ni..
aku pun bukan nye x kenal dia ni ,aku pun tumpang terkejut dengar kematian dia..
aku sendiri penah tengok 2 siri drama si mati ni..
Tapi kat sini bukan nak ulas sal sedihnye pemergian dia tapi nak cakap pasal trend kematian actor/actress korea ni..
nak tau kenapa YONG HA mati??haha..ni sume sebab dia ni berfikir terlalu singkat..ape ke jadahnye pegi bunuh diri plak!!!
Mungkin ramai jugak dari kalangan kita yg tau bahawa
artis korea ni memang suka bunuh diri..
cam dah menjadi satu trend kat korea ni lau ad maslah skit nak bunuh diri..
bukan sorang dua artis korea yg bunuh diri ni tp sampai berpuluh2 org..
sebelum ni salah sorang watak perempuan jahat dalam drama siri boys over flower membunuh diri semasa penggambaran cite tu lum habis ag,
last2 watak dia xde macam tu je dlm cite tu..
gambar sebelah ni lah Jang Ja-Yeon
ish..ish..ish..ape nak jadi la ngan manusia zaman skrg kan..
xbleh ad ujian skit terus ikut perasaan sendiri tanpa berpikir secara rasionalnye..
sebab tu dalam islam kita di ajar supaya mempercayai qada dan qadar tuhan..
xde la kita selalu rase hidup ni dah x berguna..
So disini moral of the story ialah makin berkurangan la manusia kat muka bumi ni lau kita sume nak ikut trend artis korea ni..
haha..
Tapi ingat,kepada sesiapa muslim tu jgn la sesekali terpikir nak tamatkan riwayat sendiri sebab nyawa ni bukan milik kita tapi milik Allah s.w.t..
hanye Dia yg berhak keatas nyawa kita dan Dia juga yg akan menentukan bila dan dimana ajal kita..
Akhir kalam,hidup lah ceria2 selalu..huhuhu
