According to Dee, their family marked the Lunar New Year holiday by traveling to Japan, where her “dearest and most kindhearted sister” unfortunately died.

In a statement, Dee was quoted as saying, “I was grateful to be her sister in this life and that we got to care for and spend time with each other. I will always be grateful to her and miss her!”

While neither Barbie nor Dee had social media posts about their Japan trip, Dee did share holiday photos with her sister and the rest of their family last December. In the photo, surrounded by her family, Barbie smiled brightly beside her husband, Koo Jun Yup (DJ Koo), whom she married in 2022. In her caption, Dee thanked God because they could get together. She also complimented her sister Barbie whom she fondly calls “Big S,” sharing that she shines without makeup. She ended her post by writing, “Let’s be young together in the Year of the Snake.”

The same photo also happened to be the last image Barbie’s husband shared on Instagram with them together in the frame.

In another family photo Dee shared on Instagram last December, Barbie was seen in a celebratory mood, clad in a Christmas-themed sweater and a red headband while holding a glass of red wine.

“Being with family is just happy,” Dee captioned, wishing everyone to stay safe and healthy.
