See fan death in Korea: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fan_death https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fan_death Belief in fan death is still common even among successful educated people in their 30s-60s. Don't argue, it won't get you anywhere that a flat earther won't take you.

It's a euphemism for suicide.

  Preserving family honor may be why fan death caught on, but the media surrounding it has created an entirely different and sustaining belief.
