Former SG Wannabe member Chae Dong-ha [WSEntertainment]

Former SG Wannabe member Chae Dong-ha has been found dead in his home, according to a report by a local news agency.

Yonhap News Agency on Friday quoted an official with the singer's agency saying that he is on his way to Chae's house after receiving the news from an acquaintance.

A couple of other reports have said the singer was found hanging by his neck although official details have yet to come.

Chae, who started his singing career as a solo artist in 2002, made his name known through SG Wannabe which debuted in 2004 with other members Kim Yong-jun and Kim Jin-ho.

Although the group has enjoyed huge success throughout and is considered one of the top male ballad groups in the country, Chae left the group in March 2008 to pursue a solo career and was replaced by Lee Seok-hun.
