The day an eight-year love fell apart.
In Thailand in September 2016. A young couple, whose wife is a current college student (they’ve been dating for 8 years and married for 3 months), break up due to mutual distrust. The sight of a wife hugging her husband who commits suicide with a shotgun on the street while they are saying goodbye, kissing him as if he regrets it, and weeping is so shocking.

There is no original report on the “breakup suicide” video from Thailand
On the other hand, the number of suicides in Thailand is statistically significant. According to Thailand’s Ministry of Public Health, the suicide rate will rise from 6.64 per 100,000 people in 2019 to 7.97 per 100,000 people in 2022, which is linked to an increasing trend since the coronavirus pandemic. According to international comparisons using WHO standards, Thailand’s suicide rate is 14.4 per 100,000 people, the highest in the ASEAN region, exceeding Singapore at 11.2 and Laos at 8.6. The suicide rate for men is four to six times higher than for women, and in 2016 there were 103 reported suicides by firearm (97 of them men).Although the story is circulating online, a review of news reports and incident databases—both within and outside Thailand—failed to uncover any original article matching the specific details, such as the eight-year relationship, the three-month marriage, or the circumstances of the suicide. While several similar cases involving breakups and shootings were identified, the individuals and dates involved did not align. It remains unknown when or where the photograph itself was taken.
