Seven years have passed since actor Kim Joo-hyuk suddenly left our side.

The sudden accident of the deceased, who was not usually suffering from chronic diseases, shocked everyone. The cause of the accident has not yet been clarified. Some speculated that Kim Joo-hyuk likely died of myocardial infarction, but an autopsy by the National Forensic Service found that he died of a fractured head bone caused by the accident.

The late Kim Joo-hyuk made his debut as an SBS 8th open talent in 1998, and gained popularity by appearing in the films 'YMCA Baseball Team'Ban Hong'My Wife Is Married'Collaboration'Fraha's Lover'Argon'. Although he was the son of an elder actor and Kim Moo-saeng, many applauded Kim Joo-hyuk's move to silently walk his way without leaning on his father's halo. He was also greatly loved by the public for his simple appearance, appearing on KBS2 '1 Night 2 Days' from 2013 to 2015 and earning the nickname 'Gutin Lee Hyung'.

Meanwhile, the remains of the deceased were laid to rest in the family's grave in Daro-ri, Daesan-eup, Seosan-si, Chungcheongnam-do.
