Park Boram was a popular K-pop singer who rose to fame 10 years ago with her single “Beautiful.” Four years earlier, she won the singing competition “Superstar K2” in 2010. She has steadily continued to release new music and released a single called “I Miss You” just two weeks ago.

According to AllKPop, Boram was with two of her friends at one of their homes. Around 9:55pm, she went to the bathroom. She didn’t come back to join her friends. Eventually, one of her friends went to look for her, and Boram was unconscious, leaning over the sink in the bathroom. She suffered from cardiac arrest.

Boram’s friends called the authorities who tried to revive her when they arrived. They gave her CPR, which was unsuccessful.
