It has been three years since the passing of Oh Chang-hoon, a member of the group Wanto.

The late Oh Chang-hoon passed away at Gangbuk Samsung Hospital on November 14, 2023. He was 47 years old at the time of his death.

Diagnosed with Stage 4 colon cancer and neuroendocrine cancer, the late artist underwent multiple rounds of chemotherapy and was being monitored for recovery after surgery before ultimately succumbing to his illness.

Song Ho-beom, who had been active in Wanto alongside the late Oh Chang-hoon, kept vigil at the wake at the time and paid tribute by saying, "I pray that he may rest peacefully in a place where he will no longer suffer."

The late Oh Chang-hoon and Song Ho-beom formed Wanto in 2003 and debuted in the music industry with their first album, "Ja, Ungdeogi" (Come On, Butt), which was written and composed by singer and producer Park Jin-young. They went on to hit songs such as "Kung-jjak," "Motdoen Yeoja" (Bad Girl), and "Byeol-i Bitneun Bam-e" (Starlit Night).

The two focused on their individual activities after releasing their fourth single, "Very Good," in 2010. The late Oh Chang-hoon continued to pursue his passion for music by working as a DJ, composer, and in other roles.

In addition, the late Oh Chang-hoon married a woman 13 years his junior in September 2019 and received congratulations from many. However, news of his passing just four years after their wedding left people deeply saddened.
