garnered pickup across Korean websites as commenters called her names and criticized her body, talent and mental well-being., the final movie before her untimely death. In the film, the then-22-year-old actor played a rehabilitation therapist, starred in a nude scene and portrayed drug use. The movie sparked more negative rumors about her, most notably that she was actually using drugs, all of which are illegal in Korea.
Her perceived controversies were rooted in her wanting to commit to her art, a misconception that continued throughout her life. Her inclination to controversy eventually seemed to color her career, as she joined the Korean variety showas the youngest and most outspoken host on the cast that brought celebrities on to respond and react to their online detractors. On the show, Sulli confidently opened up about many topics, including her pregnancy rumors, family plans, dating preferences and more.
Even while Sulli was most known for her beauty as a member of f, as a solo artist she was a credited co-writer and co-producer of music that delivered the experimental effervescence of her former girl group but also packed an undeniable punch of melancholy as she asks, "Why do you look so blue?" in "On the Moon" and closes the track with a despondent outro.
Sulli left this industry at a time when K-pop stars, especially women, are still not able to fully, freely express themselves without risking major backlash from the public.
lesyeuxdeyanee This is insulting and disgusting. None of that has anything to do with her situation, anyone who thinks so is ignorant and toxic. She suffered from Mental health problems and it boiled for YEARS. Screw you and your politics. Stop using her. Let those who loved her grieve in peace
RestInPeaceSulli te amaremos y te llevaremos por siempre en nuestros corazones .....
Honestly I always looked up to sulli as a fashion icon.....she always embraced herself n went outside the boundaries that what I loved about her .she will forever be in our hearts. Rest in peace Sulli
Before next person pass away, catch those involved people. Investigate that moon’s company and Meow! ⚡️
R.I.P. Sulli we love you for ever 💔💔😭💔
Of course, use her death as a political agenda. How about you respect all views instead? Poor kids should really look at what they read.
Rest in Peace.
tragic that someone has to take their own life for people to open their eyes.
Feeling so sad 😞 RIPSulli
how disrespectful it is to think someone can be a symbole when they were sacrificed and destroyed by the same people who write these articles.
beaneruto Shoulda stanned uzi
We don't need horrible things to happen for things to change. May she rest in peace. Let's no bully people because they are who they want to be. And if the society dont like, well just skip it and live YOUR life.
keep her name out of your mouth, y'all recognise people only when they're dead. I'm so sick of medias getting money from someone's passing kissing their asses
RIPSulli 💔💔
I'm not her fan, I don't know her, never heard of her but it breaks my heart to hear that someone suicide because of that bullshit 💔😭😔
It shouldn’t have come to this in the first place. Take action NOW.
Kpop Community should change the way of treating their Idols, not as their puppets or treat them like a piece of thing whenever they feel like loving them they will love and whenever they feel like to backlash them they do it when they aren't happy with their Idol.
So she had to die for things to change ? I AM FUMING PEOPLES LIVES ARE NOT A JOKE
Her death is tragic but she was not an advocate of women’s rights. What forward thinking political view did she have? She was a k pop girl group idol who got shit on for not wearing a bra and making her relationships very public. It’s sad but she’s no martyr.
Y'all talking about it now that she's gone. Not so Cliché. Annoying humans. 😑 RIPSulli RIPChoiJinri
Please RIP 🙏😢❤️
for some reason, I hear The Band Perry's song echoing; '...funny when you're dead how people start listenin''.
thank you for staying true to yourself and fighting for women, i'm sure it was so hard. rest in peace.
tolong kalo bikin berita tuh kaya gini ya Koreaboo allkpop CNNIndonesia
infru1 Orgulho dela Descanse em plena paz Sulli,você trabalhou muito bem..
TheBlueHouseKR bluehousekorea Korea needs change, don't look at it as a despicable animal !!!!!!!

dubuplum thank you for this article, put everything into words
Korean society need more women like her. This is such a tragedy 💔
SULLI LEGEND
You'll never be forgotten ::((
ryucakes I'm ugly crying right now 😭 I'm going to miss her so much, I remember waiting since like forever for a day when all of them would suddenly, out of no where have a comeback. f(x) will never be the same without our angel :(
sulli was a strong woman with a sweet heart..❤️
and thats how we should all remember her like A bright light in this dark world
Rest well angel
How was that this kills really like don't know if she right or not but her death is so bad after jonghyun death please rethink of everything you all gonna to say damn hell
The article is useful but, not at this time and not so soon, y'all didn't even give it a day to settle making an article for clout.
She still young .. omg
THANK YOU
Thank you for this article. Thank you for writing such kind words about Sulli and for reminding us how she unapologetically stayed true to herself till the end.
god, Late Sulli. makes my stomach churn just putting those words together 😭 doesnt seem real.
we didn't deserve her 🌹💔 rest easy baby girl ⚘🌸
I hope deeply in the bottom of my heart that oneday korean female idols become more brave,open minded &free for what they love & wanna do&entertainment companies be open minded,think carefully about their artist&treat them like human being Everyone deserves a better life&freedom
This is a much needed article that focuses on what she advocated. She has left behind and example for others to carry on the legacy with a fearless approach henceforth in a society often called out for being conservative and misogynistic.
Please protect women's right in Korea. I hope can change this time in Korea🙏🙏🙏🙏 RestInPeaceSulli
Now you can rest sulli😭😭
Sulli or jinri she was outspoken and brave she was the only few kidol women who were actually was talking about depression and feminism and i hope everything changes around the kpop community so bad thing wont happen again it just upsets me that it had to took a persons death for
PardsJIBallares Poor girl! Toxic korean fans might have worsened her ordeal causing her to give up. Fans should realize that these actors are not perfect. They struggle too! 😞
Thank u for the nicely written article. Let's not forget what Sulli stood up against and carry on spreading the positivity to change the toxicity and prevent further harm to others. RIP Sulli.
The world needed people like her 💜🍑
Its hard for sulli to push her mission and ideas about womens rights feminism etc., korea still lives with goryeo joseon culture who thinks that women have no right to be above mens ability and rights. They still let their culture stay the same just like their old culture. 💔
Yes, thank youu...R.I.P Sulli, Love you,Always💓😟😢
Jeff__Benjamin This is disgusting you know she has passed away
This is what always happens in this world: we realize what we have missed only after someone's gone It's so ironic that no one helped her when she was alive and crying for help We never actually learn anything RestPeacefullySulli
_drog4 💚💚💚
but the ugly truth is kmedia is bashing her with full hate and she been cyberbullying with every single step she made... RIP sulli
Why is it that people only remembers a certain person when she's already dead? Where's that sympathy and support when she need it the most while she's alive and lonely? Heh.
Would’ve been nice to have an article like this before this tragedy occurred.
Should have stanned liluzi better.
❤❤
poor girl was bullied so bad partly cuz of korea's misogyny things need to get better there
This k-pop industry is Very dangerous. Its controlling the life of k-pop stars. This needs to be stopped.
Now I know. Sulli was hated for basically being a feminist in the conservative country Korea which is dominated by patriarchy. Most probably, the insecure Korean men were the ones who felt threatened by her views since she was influential!
RIP MY LOVE
So she died a martyr?
Should’ve streamed highest in the room smh.
taengoomoo thank you billboard for writing this article so beautifully
chartsblackpink My dearest Sulli, so sad that everyone loves you now that you are gone :(
Social media has been going way to far with cyber bullying
Hopefully sulli can try and be happy wherever she is now instead of being sad like she was on earth
Thank you so so much.
Jeff__Benjamin Thank you for writing a respectful and informative article about her 💜
chartsblackpink Rip sulli ❤️
chartsblackpink society kill Sulli.. frow now on, all kpop fans should watch their words.. if theyre trully a kpop fans, they just have to support their idol rather than demanding something from them..
taengoomoo We needed her here longer for us and for the women in the Kpop industry. She was the change we needed
A little too late. We only respect and appreciate someone until they die. This shouldn't be the case.
Well it would have done a heck lot if u would have posted this when she was alive..not now ..
“My life is actually empty, so I feel like I’m lying to everyone by pretending to be happy on the outside.“ “I told the agency I was exhausted but no one listened to me. I felt like I was alone .” 'Don’t be too hard on me, I'm not a bad person.'
fetishlipa A queen korea didn’t deserve RIP😔🖤
chartsblackpink thank you for writing about what she stood for. I hope she'll be remembered this way
chartsblackpink Thanks you so much... I miss her smile 😭 RIPSulli 🙏🏻
lisaismylifee thank you 😭
We shouldn’t have waited for something like this to happen in order for us to look into the matter and do something about it. Lives matter. She mattered. Knowing how much artists struggle daily, they should also be given proper attention whether they speak about it or not. 💔
Thank you for citing the causes and the struggles that this brilliant woman supported and championed she was much more than just an idol to us. Remember this angel foverer 진리야네곁에있어 RIPSulli
Never heard of her. Put out this message and stop glamorizing her. Don’t do drugs
She should be a symbol of how Korea treats celebrities in general. In honesty, yea western celebs deal with hate comments and bull shit. But Korea is on next level shit. They'll taunt you just for not wearing a bra. Korea puts TOO much pressure on their celebs. Enough already
Next time she should have standed 멍청한 놈들
Thank you
The tragedy is that we always need something horrific to push us towards bringing about such change. Sulli wasn’t even trying to bring about a change or make a statement, just wanted to live her life the way she wanted to...nothing more.
songgluna thank you so much
ilyjulian85 vedete? ci riuscirà ;)
after all this time? seriously k-net?
Yes i hope it all change now. Rip angel 😔❤️
