Kim Tae-hyung, formerly of the group Fire Truck, is in deep sorrow after losing his wife. According to Kim Tae-hyung's representatives on the 22nd, his wife, choreographer Kim Kyung-ran, passed away on this day due to a chronic illness. She was 62 years old.

The funeral is being held at Room No. 6 of the Asan Medical Center Seoul Hospital Funeral Home. The funeral procession will take place at 6:00 AM on the 24th, and she will be laid to rest at Manghyang's Hill.

A scene of grief and remembrance

Kim Kyung-ran was a choreographer known for her appearance on MBC's 'A Great Day' in 2012, where she supported Fire Truck's performances. She once stated, "I participated in most of Fire Truck's choreography. I also created the choreography for 'While on the Phone,' and even simple choreography looked different when they danced it. I expected them to acknowledge that I created it someday, but they never did, which made me feel disappointed."

Kim Tae-hyung debuted in 1987 with Fire Truck, often referred to as an 'original idol group.' After the group disbanded, he transformed into an entertainment entrepreneur and producer. As a producer, he introduced the five-member co-ed group 'World' in 1995 and discovered the group 'NRG' in 1997. He also produced the girl group T.T.MA.

Kim Tae-hyung and Kim Kyung-ran married in 1991 and had a daughter.

Real Korea, Curated for Global Travelers

WassupKorea is a next-generation platform designed for foreigners who want to truly experience Korea — not just as tourists, but as locals. While countless Koreans have shared their daily lives, food experiences, and cultural tips through blogs, videos, and social media, much of this valuable content remains locked behind language barriers. WassupKorea solves this by collecting and curating high-quality local content and making it accessible to global audiences through real-time AI-powered translation. Instead of superficial recommendations, users gain access to authentic, first-hand stories — from hidden street food spots to weekend mountain hikes — written by Koreans for Koreans, now reinterpreted for the world.

AI-Powered Personalization, Translation, and Voice Interaction

What sets WassupKorea apart is its deep integration of artificial intelligence at the core of the platform. AI matches users with personalized content based on their language, nationality, and travel interests. Whether you're looking for vegan Korean food in Jeonju or part-time job tips in Seoul, the platform's smart engine brings the most relevant, timely posts to the forefront. Every piece of content — blog summaries, local guides, user comments — is instantly translated using advanced AI translators. Users can also listen to posts via natural-sounding voice AI in their own language. Real-time voice translation in community chats allows for live conversations between users from different countries. With voice synthesis, AI can even "learn" your voice preferences to create a more natural and immersive experience.

A Living Community Driven by Local Content and Global Connection

WassupKorea is more than just an information portal — it’s an AI-driven community hub that grows smarter as users interact. Travelers and residents alike can share their own content via links from TikTok, Instagram, or YouTube, or directly post on the platform. AI categorizes the content, suggests similar posts, and connects users with shared interests. Foreigners living in Korea can also access essential resources like visa tips, rental guides, job listings, and lifestyle hacks. As more content is generated and more interactions occur, the AI refines its recommendations — creating a dynamic feedback loop that benefits every user. WassupKorea bridges the gap between Korea’s deep local knowledge and the global audience eager to explore it, forming a smart, multilingual, and inclusive platform for everyone curious about life in Korea.
