South Korean actor Cha In Ha has been found dead aged 27.
The news was confirmed by star’s agency Fantagio, revealing his body was found on December 3.
A statement read: "We feel devastated to deliver such heartbreaking and unfortunate news.
"On December 3, actor Cha In Ha left our sides. We are truly heartbroken to deliver sad news to everyone who has sent lots of love and support to Cha In Ha until now.
"We are filled with grief at this news that is still hard to believe.
"We earnestly ask for rumours to not be spread and for speculative reports to not be released in order for his family, who is experiencing greater sadness more than anyone due to the sudden sad news, to send him away peacefully.
"As wished by his family, the funeral will be held privately. We express deep mourning for his passing."
No more details about his death have been released, but Straitstimes.com reports his body was discovered at home and police have launched an investigation to find out what happened to him.
Ha was in the early stages of his acting career after making his debut in short film by the Surprise U acting group in 2017.
He was then cast in drama TV show Love With Flaws.
The tragedy comes shortly after the loss of two young K-pop stars, Sulli, 25, and Goo Hara, 28.
Hara, a former member of girl group Kara, was found dead at home last month, while singer Sulli took her own life last month.
