K-pop star Yohan (real name Kim Jong-hawn), member of the popular boy-band TST, has passed away at 28 years old. TST’s label KJ Music Entertainment, confirmed the news, stating “We are sad to relay the most unfortunate, sorrowful news. Back on June 16, TST member Yohan left this world.”
“The late Yohan’s family is currently in deep mourning. The family has pleaded that media articles… such as those making speculations about the cause of his death, be refrained out of respect. We express our deepest condolences in light of Yohan’s final parting.”
Yohan first rose to fame in the K-pop world after joining boy-band Nom, joining TST shortly after they disbanded in 2017. TST’s most recent album Countdown was released in January of this year.
