South Korean drama star Kang Seo Ha has died from cancer at the age of 31.
The popular actress, known for her roles in Heart Surgeons (2018) and Nobody Knows (2020), died early on Monday morning, local time.
She was reportedly battling stage 4 acute stomach cancer at the time of her death.
Friends wrote on Instagram that she had continued caring for others even in ill health.
'I still can't believe it,' one friend wrote. 'While enduring such great pain, she worried about the people around her, and about me.'
'Even though you couldn't eat for months, you insisted on paying for my meals with your own card and never let me skip a meal. My angel, who left us far too soon.
'Even as you endured everything with painkillers, you said you were grateful that it wasn't worse, and I felt truly ashamed.
'My dear sister, you went through so much. I hope you are only happy and free from pain where you are now!'
