Netflix's Japanese Reality Show "Terrace House" Has Been Canceled After Cast Member Hana Kimura Died - BuzzFeed News

Her death by an apparent suicide has led to widespread criticism of cyberbullying in Japan.

Production of the latest season of Terrace House, a popular Japanese reality TV show distributed by Netflix, was canceled on Wednesday after 22-year-old cast member Hana Kimura died of an apparent suicide over the weekend.

Kimura, a professional wrestler, died Saturday after months of abuse she reportedly faced online, following an altercation she had with a male Terrace House cast member.

Production on Terrace House: Tokyo, the season Kimura was on, had been halted in mid-April due to the coronavirus.

It also led to widespread criticism of the cyberbullying that other Terrace House cast members said they had faced.
