K-pop star Kim Jong-hyun, 27, has been found dead in his Seoul hotel room with burned coal briquettes in a pan on the stove. They produce deadly carbon monoxide. He was the lead singer of the South Korean boy band SHINee. Police said Kim’s sister told them that, before his death, the singer had behaved erratically and sent her text messages that included messages such as “Final farewell” and “I’ve had difficulties.” CBC
