On April 19, Sulli's brother shared a touching message on his social media account, along with a photo of the sunset by the sea. He expressed his understanding of the responsibilities Sulli had left behind, despite it feeling like it was just yesterday.
The reference to "six years ago" indicated the year 2019 when Sulli passed away. This heartfelt message evoked varied responses from online users, with many expressing their support and concern. Comments such as "I'll always be here for you," "What does the homework symbolize?" and "I hope you're staying positive" flooded the post, reflecting a mix of apprehension and encouragement.
In the past, Sulli's brother attracted attention by making posts targeting actor Kim Soo Hyun, casting doubts on the circumstances of his sister's tragic death. He accused Kim Soo Hyun and Lee Ro Bae, the director of the movie 'Real,' of pressuring Sulli into shooting intimate scenes, which were reportedly addressed during Sulli's funeral in 2019.
During the filming of 'Real' in 2017, discussions were reportedly held about the potential use of a body double for certain intimate scenes, according to Sulli's family.
Kim Soo Hyun's agency, Gold Medalist, responded with an official statement, refuting the accusations. They clarified that the character portrayed by Sulli in the movie was always scripted to have intimate scenes and the actress suited for such roles was purposely sought out. The agency stated that the script, including the intimate scenes, was shared with Sulli and her agency beforehand. They further explained that while a stand-in was used for specific camera angles, no body double was utilized during the scenes.
Sulli initiated her career as a child actress in the 2005 SBS drama 'Ballad of Seodong' and subsequently debuted as a member of the girl group f(x) in 2009. She gained fame with songs like 'LA Cha TA' and 'Rum Pum Pum Pum.' After departing from f(x) in 2015, she dedicated herself to acting and TV appearances. Sadly, Sulli passed away in October 2019 at the age of 25.
