[TV Daily Reporter Lee Gi-eun] Composer Lee Jun-young, who performed under the stage name LeeZu, has died suddenly.

On the 4th, composer Wang Jeong-hyun announced Lee Jun-young's passing. He was 42.

Wang, a friend of Lee's, said he had \"set off on a distant journey alone.\" He asked people to honor Lee's work and to hold memorials so his final path would not be a lonely one.
