Short answers, pulled from the story.
Viktor Robertovich Tsoi entered the world on the 21st of June 1962 inside a maternity hospital located on Kuznetsovskaya Street in Leningrad. He was the only child of Valentina Vasilyevna Tsoi, a Russian schoolteacher, and Robert Maximovich Tsoi, a Soviet Korean engineer from Kyzyl-Orda, Kazakhstan.
Viktor Tsoi died in a car collision after falling asleep at the wheel due to fatigue while driving along the Sloka-Talsi highway near Tukums and Engure in Latvia. His dark blue Moskvitch-2141 turned into the oncoming lane and collided with an Ikarus bus that exited from a turn at speeds between 60 to 70 kilometers per hour.
In 1988, Tsoi starred as the protagonist Moro in The Needle, a Kazakh new wave art film directed by Rashid Nugmanov. The movie officially released in February 1989 throughout the Soviet Union and followed Moro returning to Almaty to collect money owed to him while discovering his former girlfriend Dina had become a morphine addict.
On the 15th of August 2020, the 30th anniversary of his death, fans across the country commemorated his passing through events and concerts organized locally. The Palace Bridge in St. Petersburg lifted to play his songs while a tall monument dedicated to Tsoi stood erected in St. Petersburg the day before those celebrations began.
From 1974 until 1977, Tsoi studied at a secondary art school where he joined a band called Palata No. 6. The group released one surviving album titled Slonolunie, which combined words for elephant and full moon into a single portmanteau.
