Korean actress Park Soo-Ryun was pronounced dead following a fatal accident at home.

The actress, most known for her work in the series, "Snowdrop", was reported to have stumbled and fallen down a flight of stairs, and was declared brain dead after being admitted to a local hospital.

Meanwhile, Park's parents recently stated that they would donate her organs to those in need, adding, "As her mother and father, we will be able to live comforted [by the thought that her heart] has gone to someone and is beating."

Aside from her role in the series, Park was also known for her musical works, including performances in "Finding Mr. Destiny" and "Siddharta".

She was 29.

Ryun rose to fame in 2018 with the musical Il Tenore, which also featured actors such as Lee Sang-yi and Jeon Mi-do. She went on to appear in musicals and plays including The Cellar, Othello, and The Day We Were In Love. In 2021, the actress made her small screen debut in Disney+'s Snowdrop. The romance K-drama is set in 1987, a tumultuous year in Korean history. Ryan starred as a student at the Hosu Women's University alongside Blackpink singer Jisoo and actor Jung Hae-in. The series ran for 16 episodes between December 2021 and January 2022. The series was shrouded in some controversy over its depiction of North Koreans, song choice, and historical accuracy, and a petition was even created to stop the show from airing. Per WDW News Today, despite the controversy, Snowdrop was among the five most-watched shows in the streaming service's Asia-Pacific market during its first five weeks of streaming.

Amid Ryun's passing, many fans have paid tribute to the actress, with one fan sending their "deepest condolence to the family of SooRyun. May her soul rest in peace." Another person tweeted, "Tragic news, may she rest in peace and may her family find the strength they need during this hard time."

Ryun's tragic passing follows the death of Snowdrop actor Kim Mi-soo. The actress, who played a history student on the show, died in January 2022 at the age of 29. Her cause of death was not revealed.
