Actor Jung Il-woo paid tribute to the late Thai princess.
On the 12th, Jung Il-woo posted a photo of the late Princess Bajrakitiyabha Mahidol on his Instagram, writing “R.I.P.”
On that day, the Thai Royal Office issued a statement announcing that “Princess Bajrakitiyabha, the eldest daughter of Vajiralongkorn (Rama X), passed away at 7:48 p.m. the previous day at Chulalongkorn Hospital in Bangkok.”
Princess Bajrakitiyabha suddenly fainted while visiting Nakhon Ratchasima Province in northeastern Thailand in December 2022 and never regained consciousness. At the time, medical staff diagnosed her with arrhythmia caused by heart inflammation resulting from an infection with Mycoplasma, a type of bacteria.
Princess Bajrakitiyabha, who had been hospitalized and fighting the illness for over three years, passed away after her condition worsened.
Jung Il-woo gained significant popularity in Thailand after starring in the 2017 Thai drama “Love and Lies.” At the time, he was the first Korean actor to play the lead role in a Thai drama.
