It has been 12 years since actress the late Kim Ja-ok passed away.

The late Kim Ja-ok died on November 16, 2014, after a battle with lung cancer. She was 63 at the time of her death.

The late star underwent surgery for colorectal cancer in 2008, but her condition worsened as the cancer later metastasized to her lungs and lymph nodes. She ultimately passed away from complications related to lung cancer, leaving behind deep sorrow.

Kim Ja-ok debuted in the entertainment industry in 1970 as a talent recruited through MBC's second open recruitment for talents. She subsequently won the love of the public by appearing in numerous works, including the dramas "Sea of Desire," "My Name Is Kim Sam-soon," "Coffee Prince," "High Kick! Through the Roof," and "The Brothers." In particular, she gained great popularity in 1996 for her portrayal of a princess-like high school girl character on the MBC comedy program "Today Is a Good Day."

Additionally, encouraged by singer Tae Jin-ah that same year, she also ventured into singing. She released the song "Princesses Are Lonely," which received great love and earned her the nickname "National Princess."

Meanwhile, Kim Ja-ok remarried singer Oh Seung-geun in 1984, and they had one son and one daughter. Recently, Oh Seung-geun appeared on KBS's "Back to Music Season 2," where he expressed his longing for his late wife.

After Kim Ja-ok's passing, he released songs such as "Ja-ok-a," "Your Flower," "Woman of the Sky," and "The Person I Miss." Oh Seung-geun revealed about the song "Your Flower," "The lyrics themselves were not written for that person, but somehow they resonated. I thought, 'This is exactly my story,' and I couldn't record it. Usually, recording finishes quickly, but it was a bit difficult."
