The funeral ceremony for the deceased will be held at the Asan Hospital funeral hall in Pungnap 2-dong, Seoul, around 8:00am on the 2nd. MC Seo Dong-joo, a former lawyer who is his daughter, sees off the last road. Including Seo Dong-ju, three children, his wife Kim (44), a younger brother and half-sister, and a nephew are listed as permanent residents. Comedian Kim Hak-rae will host, and Eom Young-soo, president of the Korean Broadcast Comedians Association, will give a memorial address. Jangji is a rainbow memorial park in Eumseong, Chungcheongbuk-do.
Seo Se-won died on the 20th of last month at around 11 am in the Korean Hospital in Phnom Penh, Cambodia. A temporary mortuary was prepared locally, and on the afternoon of the 28th, eight days after his death, he was cremated in a temple in Phnom Penh, Cambodia. The remains were transferred in 10 days, and the funeral was held from the 30th by the head of the Korean Hoarding Association. In the first place, it was known that Seo Se-won suffered a cardiac arrest while receiving intravenous injections, but suspicions of propofol administration and medical malpractice were raised. The bereaved family said, “The local police issued a death certificate with optometric results stating that he died of cardiac arrest due to diabetes. “I was cremated on the spot with the sensation of vomiting blood.”
Seo Se-enill came to the top in 1979 with a ‘Gag Contest’ to be confirmed. He hosted MBC’s ‘March of Youth’, ‘Sunday Sunday Night’, and KBS 2TV’s ‘Seo Se-won Show’. In 2014, CCTV footage of him attacking his wife, former model Seo Jung-hee (61), was released and shocked. The following year, he was sentenced to 6 months in prison and 2 years probation, and divorced Seo Jeong-hee by agreement. With Seo Jeong-hee, he had Dong-ju and a son, Jong-woo. He later remarried Kim, who graduated from a prestigious music school, and gave birth to a daughter, who moved to Cambodia in December 2019.
