One photo showed Kim Mi-soo holding a cake together with Jung Hae-in and Jisoo at a filming site. Kim Mi-soo turned 29 last March 16.

In another photo, Jung Hae-in is with Jisoo, Kim Mi-soo, Jung Shin-hye and Choi Hee-jin, who play as roommates at the university dormitory in “Snowdrop.”

Jisoo paid tribute to Kim Mi-soo by uploading photos on her Instagram account and writing “My dear room No. 207,” referring to their room number in the dormitory in the drama.

In “Snowdrop,” Jung Hae-in plays the role of North Korean spy Im Soo-ho, a 27-year-old graduate student who is sent to South Korea to do a mission.

Jisoo is 20-year-old Eun Young-ro, a college student at Hosoo Women’s University while Kim Mi-soo is student activist Yeo Jeong-Min, a 23-year-old fourth year History student.

“Snowdrop” has aired seven episodes and episode 8 will be broadcast on Jan. 8 on JTBC and Disney Plus.

A private funeral ceremony for Kim Mi-soo was held on Jan. 7 at the Taeneung Sungsim Funeral Hall in Seoul.

The production team of “Snowdrop” is reportedly discussing with Kim Mi-soo’s family whether to air her scenes in the drama, according to Korean media.

Kim Mi-soo’s agency, Landscape Entertainment, announced her death last Jan. 5.

“We have come to deliver a very heartbreaking news. Actress Kim Mi-soo suddenly left us on Jan. 5. The bereaved family is currently very heartbroken due to the sudden tragedy. We earnestly ask you to refrain from reporting rumors or speculation so that the bereaved family, who is in shock and sorrow, can reverently pay tribute to the deceased,” the agency said. It did not reveal the cause of her death.

Kim Mi-soo was working on the Disney Plus drama “Sixth Sense Kiss,” which is based on a webtoon, when she passed away. The crew of “Sixth Sense Kiss” cancelled the filming on Jan. 5 due to her death.

An agency representative told Maeil Business Star Today that Kim Mi-soo filmed “Sixth Sense Kiss” on Jan. 3 and that she was expected to work on several acting projects. “Sixth Sense Kiss,” set for release this year, will star Seo Ji-hye and Yoon Kye-sang.

Born on March 16, 1992, Kim Mi-soo made her acting debut in the movie “Lipstick Revolution” in 2018. Her drama projects include “Hellbound,” “Yumi's Cells,” “The School Nurse Files,” “Memorials” and “Hi Bye Mama.”
