PARIS, Nov. 20 (UPI) -- Supermodel Daul Kim left messages on her Web site saying she was "depressed" and "lonely" before her body was found hanging in her Paris apartment, police said.

Police said the 20-year-old South Korean model was found dead Thursday by a friend, The Daily Telegraph reported.

Despite her success in the fashion-promotion industry where she presented the latest lines of Chanel, Dries van Noten and others, Kim had recently indicated her deep despair on her Internet blog, the Telegraph said.

In late October she announced, "I left Seoul and I'm in Paris -- I'm happy!" But then Nov. 5 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."

In her final entry Nov. 18, she posted an entry titled "Say hi to forever."
