Time may heal all wounds, but it appears that five months is not nearly enough for Korean singer-songwriter DJ Koo.
The husband of the late Taiwanese actress Barbie Hsu, who died at 48 from pneumonia caused by complications from the flu in February, was spotted by a netizen recently sitting by her gravesite.
Threads user Beef_0201 wrote yesterday (July 27) that he had driven a group of fans to the Chin Pao San cemetery, where Barbie was laid to rest, to leave flowers for her.
"I was thinking that I might not be able to find [the grave], so I was ready to look for it one by one," he continued. "Then I turned a corner and saw a man sitting in the middle of the cemetery! I immediately thought, could it be DJ Koo?"
A photo accompanying the post shows the 55-year-old, also known as Koo Jun-yup, sitting on a folding chair between rows of graves.
"He politely said thank you to us," Beef_0201 added. "To be honest, I felt immense sadness when I saw him!
"It is hard for me to imagine the pain when the love of your life suddenly dies!
"He is really the most passionate man I have ever seen... I hope he can get over the pain."
A netizen responded to the post, claiming: "My daughter works at that cemetery and says he really goes down to visit Barbie every day."
"My dad's grave is right next to hers," another responded. "I'm not exaggerating when I say that every time I went to pay respects to my dad, I saw DJ Koo sitting there (it even rained heavily a few times)."
They added that DJ Koo mostly reads books by Barbie's grave and occasionally checks his phone.
Fans were heartbroken in the comments.
"I'm really going to cry," wrote one.
While some were in awe of his dedication to his late wife, others thought he looked ill and appeared to have lost weight.
"He seems to not be doing well emotionally," wrote a netizen. "I hope he can seek professional help and recover slowly."
