South Korean actress Kang Seo-ha has died at the age of 31 following a battle with stomach cancer. According to her family, Kang died on the afternoon of July 13 after her health declined during her second round of chemotherapy, as reported by News.Az.
A close friend paid tribute on social media on 14 July, stating, “Despite enduring so much pain, she always worried more about others than herself. She hadn’t eaten well for months, yet insisted on paying for my meals with her card, she was my angel.”

Her funeral will be held on July 16, with the burial taking place in her family’s plot in Ham-an, South Gyeongsang Province.
Fans, colleagues, and fellow actors continue to share condolences online, remembering Kang Seo-ha’s dedication to her craft and her kindness to those around her.
