Park Soo Ryun’s mother told Soompi, ”Only her brain is unconscious, and her heart is still beating. There must be someone who desperately needs [organs]. As her mother and father, we will be able to live comforted [by the thought that her heart] has gone to someone and is beating.”
Her last rites were performed on June 12 and a procession to honour the Korean star will be carried out on June 13.
