Kim Sung-jae (18 April 1972 – 20 November 1995) was a South Korean hip-hop singer, rapper and dancer, first known as the member of Deux, hip-hop duo that gained a popularity in the early 1990s. Several months after the group was disbanded, Kim released his solo album "As I Speak" (말하자면) on 19 November 1995. However, the day after his comeback performance at SBS, Kim suddenly died. The police found out 28 needle marks around his right arm and chest, and presumed his cause of death as a heart attack due to drug overdose. But after the autopsy, an animal anesthetic called 'Zoletil 50' was found and due to the point that he's right-handed his cause of death changed from drug overdose to the murder. Therefore his girlfriend was arrested for the alleged murder of Kim but was acquitted due to lack of murder evidence. However the case still has been considered an unsolved mystery.[1][2][3][4]

He was born in Seoul, South Korea as the first child and his younger brother is also a singer and musical actor.[2][5]
