"I do it all": Korean and Ukra actors take off their bulletproof vests just before death to tell their child
When can his promiseless promise, which he shouted, "We will do it," be kept?
It was reported that Korean-American Ukraine actor Ipasha (33), who died in the bombing of the Russian army, took off his bulletproof vest and died at the last minute.
According to the Centre for Civil Liberties (CCL) of Ukraine on the 15th (local time), on the 6th, Ipasha took off her bulletproof vest and put it on a child holding her child in her arms to avoid the bombing of Russia in the process of escaping the civilians of the Russian army. He died.
“Ipasha helped children to evacuate safely from their homes in Irpin,” CCL said on social media (Twitter Inc.), adding that Ipasha’s body was found five days after he died in Irpin.
It was not confirmed whether the child, who was in Ipasha's bulletproof vest and was in his arms, survived.
Earlier, foreign media such as Ukraine local media, US Deadline and Insider reported on the death of Ipasha on the 7th (local time). According to reports, Ukraine's famous actor and TV presenter, Ipasha, volunteered to join the Ukraine Homeland Defense Forces after the opening of the war. He died on the 6th when Russian troops attacked the bus on the outside of the Ukraine capital, Kiiu, while helping children and women escape.
On the last four days, Ipasha posted a photo of her wearing a military uniform on her SNS (Instagram) and with her colleagues, saying, "For the last 48 hours, we had a chance to sit down and take pictures of how we were bombed. We're laughing because we're going to get it done, because Yi Gi, and everything we do will be Ukraine, because Yi Gi. #Ukraine # unity. "This post, which contains the last cry of Ipasha's life, followed a memorial to him. Citizens expressed their condolences by leaving comments such as "Our Angel" and "It will remain in my heart forever".
Ambassador Dmitro Ponomarenko also told Twitter Inc. on November 11, "Ipasha died in the process of escaping citizens from the war-torn City of Irpin when Russia attacked Ukraine."
“Ipasha’s mother is from Jakarpatia and her father is from Korea, from Crimea,” he said, “and I want to tell you about him.”
On the 7th, Professor Park No-ja of Oslo University in Norway also said on Facebook, "Ukraine-born Sophiet Korean actor Ipasha died in a bomb fighting the Russian invaders. He was only thirty-three years old.”
Meanwhile, international concerns are growing as indiscriminate air strikes across Ukraine in Russia have caused local civilian damage. The Ukraine government said on Wednesday that Russia forces attacked a mosque (Islamic temple) in southern Mariupol; it was reported that more than 80 civilians were evacuated to the mosque.
According to the United Nations Human Rights Office, 636 civilians, including 46 children, were killed in Ukraine from 4 am on March 24, when Russia's invasion of Ukraine began, until 0 pm local time. The number of injured was 1,125, including 62 children. The Human Rights Office estimated that the actual damage figures would be much higher, as reports and verification of casualties in the fighting area are being delayed.
When will the tragedy of this war end? “We’re laughing because we’re going to make it through Yi Gi,” he said. “The cries of countless innocent victims, including Ipasha, who sacrificed herself to protect the child until the last minute of her death, should not be in vain.
