SEOUL, South Korea (AP) - An official says one of South Korea's top fashion models has been found dead at her home in Paris.
The Foreign Ministry official says French police found 20-year-old Daul Kim's body on Thursday. He says French police are investigating the cause of death. He refused to provide further details Friday and asked not to be named, citing government policy.
Media reports are calling it an apparent suicide.
Kim's modeling agency in South Korea, Esteem, says agency officials and her family are heading to Paris.
The statuesque Kim was a fixture at fashion weeks in Paris, London, Milan and New York. She was known for her quirky style and was an accomplished painter and filmmaker.
