Twelve years have passed since the late Kwon Ri-se of the group Ladies' Code passed away.
The late Kwon Ri-se passed away on September 7, 2014, at Ajou University Hospital in Yeongtong-gu, Suwon-si, Gyeonggi-do. She was 23 years old.
At the time, Ladies' Code was involved in an accident near the Singal Junction of the Yongdong Expressway in Yongin-si, Gyeonggi-do, while traveling from Daegu to Seoul after finishing a recording of KBS 1TV's 'Open Concert'.
The late Kwon Ri-se was rushed to the hospital immediately after the accident and underwent surgery for over 10 hours, but ultimately did not regain consciousness and passed away. At the time of the accident, fellow member Go Eun-bi, who was in the car with her, also passed away on that day.
Meanwhile, Kwon Ri-se, a Zainichi Korean, gained recognition by appearing on the MBC competition program 'The Great Birth,' which ended in 2011. She later debuted with Ladies' Code in 2013 and became beloved for hit songs such as 'Pretty Pretty', 'Bad Girl', and 'Kiss Kiss'.
