Overseasidol.com — Chinese actor Alan Yu, also known as Alan Yu Menglong, tragically passed away on the 11th after falling from a building at the age of 37.
While police quickly ruled the case as an accidental fall caused by alcohol, many netizens questioned the official explanation, suspecting there may be more to the story.
Sun Derong, Yu’s mentor and former star-maker, stepped forward to speak on his behalf.
He revealed that Yu used to call him “Dad” in private, and as a “father” he felt the need to seek justice.
Sun even shared a 2016 voice recording of their conversation, where Yu thanked him for his support and assured him that he was fine despite an injury.
Sun recently visited Xinzhuang Dizang Temple to pray for Yu and announced that a memorial Dharma service will be arranged, with details to be confirmed later.
Holding back tears, he described Yu as a “kind and pure angel” who died under unclear circumstances.
Sun also recalled training Yu as one of eight trainees in his Chinese school years ago, before Yu gained fame through Super Boy and later joined Tianyu Media.
Expressing deep regret, Sun wondered if Yu’s fate might have been different had he not entered the entertainment industry.
He also revealed a vivid dream where Yu appeared, leaving him with the impression that financial irregularities within the company may have played a role in Yu’s struggles.
While no concrete evidence has surfaced, Sun urged the public not to let the case fade away.
He promised that all offerings from fans during the Dharma service will be donated to an orphanage in Yu’s memory, ensuring his love and kindness continue to live on.
