Remaining Three Ladies' Code Members Discharged From Hospital Six Weeks After Tragic Car Accident That Took The Lives Of EunB & RiSe

The three surviving members of girl group Ladies' Code have been discharged from the hospital following the September car accident that took the lives of two members.

Ladies' Code's Ashley, Zuny, and Sojung were confirmed to have been released from the hospital, according to a statement released by Ladies' Code agency, Polaris Entertainment, on October 23. The three have returned to their families following their discharge. Future plans for the group are still unknown, but the company said the three do have eventual plans to return to the industry.

Korean outlet Newsen reported that a Polaris Entertainment representative confirmed the three survivors had been discharged once their medical conditions stabilized.

"After being discharged a week ago, the three are spending time with their families," the rep is quoted as saying. "They're receiving care from their families in their hometowns."

"Right now, Sojung is in Wonju, Gangwon-do, Ashley in the US, and Zuny in Gwangju, Jeolla-do, resting with their families. After the members have found a way of dealing with the situation, they plan on returning to the dorms."

The Ladies' Code members were in a car accident on September 3, when the girl group's van hit a traffic barrier. EunB and Kwon RiSe lost their lives and Sojung reportedly received facial fractures. Ashley and Zuny are both said to have experienced minor physical injuries.

EunB passed away from the tragic accident immediately, and her funeral was held on September 5.

Kwon RiSe survived the initial accident with severe head injuries and underwent several operations and more than ten hours of surgery. She remained in critical condition until she eventually lost her life on September 7. RiSe was laid to rest in Japan, where her family lives.

It was reported earlier in October that the driver of Ladies' Code's van on September 3 had been speeding, after initial reports of mechanical issues with the vehicle.

The accident was covered by international media outlets, and Ladies' Code's songs quickly became a memorial for the group.

The band's "I'm Fine, Thank You" became the number one song in South Korea, and Polaris Entertainment released a music video for the track on September 15, dedicated to EunB and RiSe. The music video included clips showing Ladies' Code hours before the accident, including heartbreaking messages of EunB and RiSe telling fans that they're thankful for them and that they love them.
