Acclaimed 'Extreme Job' Actor Song Young Kyu Found Dead in Car

In a shocking turn of events, acclaimed actor Song Young Kyu has passed away. According to reports, the 'Extreme Job' star was found deceased inside a car in a residential complex in Yongin, South Korea, on the morning of August 4, 2025.

The Yongin Dongbu Police Station has confirmed that there were no signs of foul play, and no suicide note was discovered at the scene. Authorities are currently speaking with Song's family to understand the recent events leading up to his tragic demise.

This devastating news comes just weeks after Song faced public scrutiny over a drunk driving incident that occurred in June 2025. The actor was caught driving under the influence for about 5 kilometers in the same Yongin area where he was later found dead. This scandal led to him stepping down from a major stage production and being edited out of several upcoming projects.

Despite the controversy, Song Young Kyu was widely respected for his acting prowess, particularly his memorable performance as the tough squad chief in the 2019 hit film 'Extreme Job'. His sudden passing has undoubtedly left a void in the entertainment industry.
