We lost Jonghyun bec of suicide on 2017, and now Sulli's gone too (reason of death not yet confirmed).
Two of the best artists SM Ent. had. Rest in peace, Sulli. I hope you (and Jonghyun) finally found your genuine happiness 💔💔💔😭😭😭😭😭😭 pic.twitter.com/uv1DYsMZBy
I hope Sulli's sorrowful depart may remind us all to be more careful with what we write online. Your hateful words might be the very cause of someone else's untimely death. Remember freedom of speech never equals freedom to hurt other people.
