According to media sources, the South Korean government has revealed a plan to help prevent celebrity suicides and fan suicides.

The idea was revealed on Friday, only days after a joint meeting between the ministries of education and health and welfare to discuss the issue. K-pop, television drama series, and feature films are all hugely popular in Korea right now. However, the industry is viewed as succeeding through a high-pressure system in which failure is common and success is accompanied by intensive internet scrutiny.

Several Korean celebrities and media figures have committed suicide in recent years, citing despair, remorse, humiliation, and cyber-bullying as causes. Jonghyun, a member of the K-pop boyband SHINee, committed suicide, and his death was one of the most widely publicized in 2018. Sulli and Goo Hara's deaths by suicide the following year sent shockwaves through the entertainment business, raising mental health concerns among K-pop stars.

The new suicide prevention strategy intends to close any gaps in agents' and managers' mental health management of Korean celebrities and artists. The Korean Creative Content Agency (KOCCA) will be able to conduct 1,300 psychological consultations in 2022, up from 900 this year. More film sets will be visited by the country's mental health agency, which will deploy its 'Heart Relief Bus.' Financial assistance and treatment costs will be provided to artists who have fluctuating incomes.
