Singer Kim Yang (real name Kim Dae-jin) has lost his mother.

Kim Yang's mother, Song Jeong-rye, passed away on the 20th. She was 73 years old.

The wake for the deceased is held at Room 1 of the funeral hall at Seoul Seongmo Hospital in Seocho-gu, Seoul. The funeral procession will take place at 7:30 a.m. on the 23rd. The burial site is Seoul Memorial Park.

Earlier, Kim Yang appeared on MBN's 'Special Report' in March last year, stating, "My mother has a chronic illness. She has been a blood cancer patient for 25 years."

He also lost his father last February. At the time, he was appearing on MBN's 'Active King of Singers' and was about to compete in the finals. He revealed, "They told me to mentally prepare three to four days before the finals. They said I should finish everything before my father left so I could see him off properly, but he passed away the day before the finals."

He continued, "I was so overwhelmed that I didn't want to go to the finals. However, my sister and brother persuaded me, saying, 'Dad definitely wanted to hear you sing,' which led me to appear on the show, leaving many feeling sorrowful."
