The autopsy also showed that the 30-year-old was suffering from health concerns, including fatty liver disease and liver lesions at the time of her death.

No other possible causes or contributing factors have been identified. 

On April 11, Park Bo-Ram was found dead at a friend’s home in Seoul. The police report states that the singer was at a private drinking party on the night of her passing. She allegedly excused herself to go to the bathroom at 9:55 pm KST.
