Kwon Sung-min commemorated the anniversary on his Instagram account by reposting an old picture he took with the actor, musing that it's already been a year and asking his departed friend how he's been.
Moon Ji-yoon was a tall man, and best known for his performances on South Korean dramas as a boisterous big guy. His best known role prior to his death was probably as Sang-cheol in both the drama and film versions of "Cheese in the Trap" although he also had noteworthy roles in projects as varied as the historical action drama "Iljimae" to the body-swapping comedy "Big" from over a decade ago. Moon Ji-yoon died at the age of thirty-six.
