Mamamoo's Solar Pays Tribute to Late Singer Wheesung

Solar, a member of the K-pop group Mamamoo, expressed her condolences for the late singer Wheesung, who passed away unexpectedly. On March 11, she took to her social media to share, "Thank you for creating and singing wonderful songs with us, who knew nothing before Mamamoo's debut." This heartfelt message was a tribute to Wheesung, who had a significant influence on her career even before her debut. She continued, "I will not forget your amazing music. Rest in peace."

Solar is not alone in her mourning; many fellow artists from the music industry are also paying their respects. Former Fin.K.L member Ok Joo-hyun reminisced about their time together during vocal lessons in a lengthy post, while Baby V.O.X member Lee Hee-jin sent a message wishing him peace.

In light of Wheesung's passing, the group STAYC has postponed their new album promotional schedule, and their labelmates, ICHILLIN', have temporarily halted their official activities. Wheesung was found unresponsive at his home on March 10, at the age of 43. His family is reportedly in deep shock and grief, and the funeral will be a private affair attended only by close family and friends, as per their wishes.
