We have lost a bright star in K-pop.

Ladies’ Code member RiSe has passed away at the age of 23.

Ladies’ Code’s management agency, Polaris Entertainment, stated, “Kwon RiSe went to heaven on September 7, 10:10 a.m.”

It continued, “Although every attempt at surgery and treatment was tried after she sustained serious injury to her head during the accident that occurred in the early morning of September 3, RiSe drew her final breath.”

It is reported that her parents, who came from Japan, and her agency staff members were by RiSe’s side until the last moment.

Polaris Entertainment also notified that the location of RiSe’s wake has not been decided yet. It added, “We cannot hold back our apologies and also our grief in relaying this sad news following the news of EunB. We ask that many pray for these two members and for the remaining members, as well, who are most saddened.

The Soompi staff offer our deepest condolences to RiSe’s family, friends, the Polaris family, and Ladies’ Code members.

R.I.P., Kwon RiSe.
