Actress Seo Hyo-rim has suffered a bereavement.
According to the family on the 4th, Seo Hyo-rim's father-in-law, the late Kim Soo-mi's husband Jung Chang-gyu, passed away this afternoon. He was 80 years old.
The wake for the deceased has been set up in Room 9 of the Hanyang University Hospital funeral hall, and the funeral procession is scheduled to be held strictly at 9:40 a.m. on the 6th. The burial site is Suwon City Funeral Home.
This tragic news comes one year and seven months after the late Kim Soo-mi passed away on October 25, 2024. It is reported that the late Kim Soo-mi died of cardiac arrest caused by hyperglycemic shock.

Following the death of the late Kim Soo-mi, Seo Hyo-rim appeared on the TV Chosun variety program "Me and My Dad" with her husband Jung Myung-ho, sharing her feelings about the loss of her mother-in-law.
At the time, Seo Hyo-rim said, "It seems to go beyond 'it's hard.' It was so sudden that I couldn't even feel it was hard," and added, "I still can't believe it. I live every day with regret. I blame myself a lot."
As Seo Hyo-rim spoke about the deceased, she eventually lost her composure and shed tears. She revealed, "I can only think of the things I couldn't do for my mother-in-law. She was also a big umbrella and a tree, so I don't know how to go on."
Additionally, the scene of Kim Soo-mi's funeral procession was also revealed through the broadcast. At the funeral procession, Seo Hyo-rim wailed, "Mom, you worked so hard and then left, what should I do?" Even after the hearse departed, she remained in place without leaving, shouting, "Mom, I'm sorry."
In this regard, in an interview with the production team, Seo Hyo-rim said, "I cried not because I was a daughter-in-law, but because I felt like I had lost a beloved friend," and added, "Honestly, I still can't believe she is gone. I sometimes cry suddenly while eating, and I cry when a song my mother-in-law loved comes on while I'm walking."
Meanwhile, Kim Soo-mi married her husband Jung Chang-gyu in 1974 and had one son and one daughter. Her son, Jung Myung-ho, the CEO of Napalkka F&B, married actress Seo Hyo-rim.
