“Choi, 39, apparently succumbed to a suicidal impulse provoked by malicious online rumors, the police said after studying memos found at her home and interviewing friends and relatives. Those online accusations claimed that Choi – who once won a government medal for her saving habit and whose name, Jin Sil, means ‘truth’ – was a loan shark. They claimed that an actor named Ahn Jae Hwan, who gassed himself in his car last month, was driven to suicide because Choi pressed him relentlessly to repay a $2 million debt.” [Link]
