Tran Van Tuan, 26, was maneuvering a forklift carrying a 1.4 metric ton glass block when the Korean director tried to give a helping hand in controling the object, according to an initial report.
Yoon stood under the glass cube, attempting to steady and help handle the equipment.
When the glass block suddenly fell off the forklift, it came crashing down straight onto the director, immediately claiming his life.
Police are investigating the incident but say it is likely a workplace accident.
