Koreanpopobit: U-nee

U-neeKorean actress and pop singer U-nee has been found hanged, in what is believed to have been a suicide.

Originally making a name for herself as an actress in Korean TV's Grown Ups Just Don't Understand, U-nee (born Lee Hye-ryeon) had started making the shift to pop in 2003. She had been scheduled to release her third album, Honey, on February 1st.
