According to Yongin Dongbu Police Station on the 4th, Song Yeong-gyu was found dead in a vehicle in Samga-dong, Cheoin-gu, Yongin-si this morning. He was 55. So far, no allegations of murder and suicide have been found.
The mortuary of the deceased was set up in Room 1 of the funeral hall of Davos Hospital in Yongin, Gyeonggi-do, and two daughters and their wives were named as the residents. It is reported that the portrait was taken by a former agency.
Earlier, at the end of last month, the Yongin Dongbu Police Station in Gyeonggi Province sent Song Young-gyu without detention to the Suwon District Prosecutors' Office on charges of violating the Road Traffic Act (Drunk Driving). Song Young-gyu is accused of driving about 5km from Giheung-gu to Cheoin-gu in Yongin City at 11 p.m. on June 19.
At that time, a witness reported "I suspect drunk driving", and the police who were dispatched to the scene identified Song Young-gyu's vehicle and arrested him. As a result of the alcohol consumption test, Song Young-gyu's blood alcohol concentration is known to correspond to the level of license cancellation.
Song Young-gyu was appearing as pastor Yoon Se-hoon in the ENA Monday-Tuesday drama 'I Shopping' and was also about to appear in SBS's Friday-Saturday drama 'Tri: We Become a Miracle' (hereinafter 'Tri'). However, as the controversy over drunk driving emerged, each broadcaster took steps to minimize his appearance.
In addition, Song Young-gyu was also appearing in the play 『Shakespeare in Love』, which will be performed at the Seoul Arts Center until September 14. The production company announced the casting change through its official SNS account after Song Young-kyu's controversy over drunk driving arose. The production company ShowNote said, "For Song Young-gyu's personal reasons, Penny Man will be held as Lim Chul-hyung One-Cast from July 27th." he said.
