She is a southern Korean and her name is Choi Yoon-Hee. In your country it is known as The priestess of happiness and is the author of more than 20 self-help books.
Her body was found next to that of her husband who has also committed suicide, in what becomes a double suicide. He has left a letter in which he claims that he had had a heart and lung ailment for two years and that he suffered 700 different types of pain every day and that they were unbearable. She also states that her husband decided not to leave her alone on this trip.
Remember that South Korea registers the highest suicide rate women.
This news I have known thanks to Mename me which is a highly visited web page in which users add news and vote them according to their importance. They can also add comments to the news.
This news has attracted a lot of comments due to the irony of it:
1) Some say that this news confirms that these books are useless.
2) «In the blacksmith's house with a wooden knife».
3) «Advice I sell that for me I don't have».
4) There are those who say that it is not a suicide but a kind of euthanasia wildly.
5) There are those who criticize that she allowed her husband to follow his path and was not able to convince him to continue with his life.
6) "Do what I say but not what I do."
7) "At least he died doing what he liked best ... end suffering."
The question is: did you commit suicide because of a depression caused by your illness or was it a free, reasoned and well-considered decision?
