As the wife of male duo Clon’s Koo Jun-yeob, top Taiwanese actress Shih Yihuan (Hsu Shih-yuan, 48) has suddenly passed away, and news has emerged that a 20-year-old Chinese actor has died under similar circumstances.
On the 6th, local Chinese media reported that Yang Wusung had died from a central nervous system infection. He was 27 years old.
Yang Wusung initially thought he had a cold and did not take it seriously, but his condition suddenly worsened with symptoms such as headaches, high fever, and vomiting. He was hospitalized but ultimately could not recover and passed away. A friend of Yang Wusung stated that he lost consciousness in the hospital and that the virus had invaded his central nervous system, leading to his sudden death. Media outlets reported, “There are speculations that it was influenza A, but this has not been confirmed.”
This case has drawn attention as it is similar to that of Shih Yihuan, who recently passed away due to complications from the flu. Shih Yihuan suddenly died on the 2nd while on a family trip in Japan, suffering from pneumonia accompanied by the flu.
Yang Wusung was gaining recognition for his roles in dramas such as ‘Jing Jing Ah Sim’, ‘Dangnyeo Sobee’, and ‘Hwanrak Samrim’.
