Daul Kim, 20, a South Korean supermodel, (also known as the “Korean Kate Moss”) was mysteriously found dead November 19th in her Paris apartment. This rising star’s sudden death has caused a lot of controversy in the fashion world because Daul’s career has just peaked, you may recognize the Kim from Christopher Kane’s Topshop ads. The model was found hanged, in what looked to be a suicide. Autopsy results have ruled out murder as the cause of death. Her parents refuse to believe she would take her own life and others beg to differ because Daul contacted a friend to speak up about her abusive relationship hours before the top model’s body was discovered by her boyfriend. Her agency, Next Model Management spoke out last week saying, “She was not able to live the normal life other girls live at her age.
We felt she felt confused and lost after reaching the top of her career.”
Daul was battling depression, proven in her previous blogs about freedom and lonliness, but it’s a tragic ending to such a beautiful woman’s story. We pray for her family and hope that Daul has found the peace and happiness she was looking for. Rest In Peace.

This is so sad. Like the old saying goes, it’s lonely at the top? Success can be a catch 22. Just because you have success is one arena doesn’t mean you have it in your relationships. It’s nice to have family and friends to support and love you but unfortunately that is not always the case.
I know its hard but sometimes we have to reach out to others for support and its good to have God in your life because sometimes he is all you have to lean on but he will get you through.
