Fourteen years have passed since the passing of the late actor Cho Gyeong-hwan, who was famous for "Detective Chief."

The late Cho Gyeong-hwan died at the age of 67 on October 13, 2012, at a nursing home in Bucheon, Gyeonggi Province. He passed away while undergoing treatment after being diagnosed with liver cancer that August.

Although he had a background as an athlete, it is known that his liver health deteriorated because he loved alcohol so much that he was called the ultimate heavy drinker in the entertainment industry.

The late Cho Gyeong-hwan, born in 1945, began his acting career after majoring in film at Hanyang University and being selected as a first-generation public recruit talent for MBC in 1969. He subsequently appeared in dramas such as "Detective Chief," "Tiger Teacher," "Heo Jun," and "Dae Jang Geum."

In particular, the late actor left a deep impression on the public by playing a detective with a strong image in MBC's "Detective Chief," which aired in the 1970s.

Afterward, the late Cho Gyeong-hwan appeared in "General Hospital 1," "Hourglass," "Angel in a Mask," "King and Queen," "Heo Jun," "Mom, Sister," "All In," "Dae Jang Geum," "Immortal Lee Sun-sin," "Lee San," and the films "Born to Kill" and "Su."
