Supermodel Daul Kim found hanged after posting web messages

Stunning South Korean supermodel Daul Kim hung herself after falling into a depression that left her feeling "lonely" and "like a ghost."

A friend found the 5-foot-10 beauty, a regular on catwalks in New York, Milan and France, in her Paris apartment Thursday.

The 20-year-old known for her quirkiness and thick mane of hair - often blond - was at the top of her game.

But she recently left a series of messages on her popular blog saying she was "lonely" and "depressed."

Kim's professional success - she modeled for top designers like Chanel, Dries van Noten and Alexander McQueen - apparently couldn't mute her emotional pain.

On her blog she hinted at wanting to end her life with a series of poems, photos and thoughts called "I like to Fork Myself."

Yet only three weeks ago, after modeling during Seoul fashion week, Kim sounded upbeat.

"I left Seoul and I'm in Paris - I'm happy!" she blogged. Her hometown had made her "mad, depressed and overworked," she said.

The next day she wrote: "No more running away from something or someone or myself."

Within a week her thoughts darkened and she wrote, "I already accepted that I relate to nothing. The more I gain the more lonely it is ... I know I'm like a ghost."

And in a final post Wednesday, she wrote, "Say hi to forever."

South Korea has one of the highest suicide rates in the world. Former President Roh Moo-hyun jumped to his death in May and actress Choi Jin-sil killed herself last year.
