This Chinese Host Reportedly Died From A Heart Attack After Going To The Gym While Having A Cold

In their post, they shared that the host had gone to the gym for an evening workout on September 2. Unfortunately, Li Lin had yet to recover from his cold, and subsequently suffered a fatal heart attack.

Fans and netizens alike mourned the passing of Li Lin, with many commenting that the industry had lost a dear talent.

Li Lin previously shared in an interview that he had graduated from university with an English degree, and did not step into the broadcast industry immediately after graduation. Instead, he worked as a translator and dubbing artist for English movies, before moving on to become a singer, and later, a tour guide, before joining radio.

He hosted a wide variety of radio programmes, from travel segments, to language-learning ones, where he shared English phrases and words with his audience.

A couple of netizens also lamented that Li Lin had died too young, and cautioned others to “take good care of your health too”.

“When you’re sick, you really have to rest properly, don’t head to the gym,” one wrote, while another urged everyone to “head to the hospital immediately if you feel unwell”.
