An upbeat video of Cha In Ha that was filmed last month has just surfaced, a day after the South Korean actor died.

Cha talked about wishing to be able to do more, revealing the meaning of his stage name ‘Cha In Ha’, how he started acting, the things he always carries with him, his favourite works and actors, his favourite restaurants and how to heal in the interview.

Allkpop, a Korean pop culture site reported that Cha revealed that he was “a person who could be defined with one word” and said that “anyone can get new inspiration depending on the environment.”

The star shared that his favourite time of day was after work where he showers then lies down to eat sweets.

Cha said that he wants to be a person who is constantly changing as an actor and as a human being, able to accept constant change calmly without being shaken by his external environment.

He added that as an actor, he wants to be someone who can constantly show a new side of himself and keep his audience guessing.

Cha then said that 2019 was a time when he kept running with the courage and hope to do better and that next year he will be a better Cha In Ha.

On Monday afternoon local time, the 27-year-old rookie actor was found dead by his manager.

The details of death have yet to be revealed.

Cha In Ha made his debut two years ago as a member of an actor boy group called Surprise U, starring in dramas such as The Banker and Miss Independent Ji Eun 2.

His latest project acting alongside Oh Yeon-Seo and Ahn Jae-Hyun was in drama Love With Flaw which is currently airing in South Korea.

Cha’s death happened less than two weeks after K-Pop star Goo Hara, 28 and the third to break news after another K-Pop star Sulli, 25 who was found dead on 14 October. /TISG
