Sulli’s Brother Drops a Cryptic Warning—Who Is He Targeting?
Sulli's older brother has stirred controversy with a cryptic Instagram post, which many believe is aimed at actor Kim Soo-hyun. His message, posted on March 21, reads:
"Kim-ssi, I have a lot to say, but I can't. You're going to fall from your high position, so you better hold on tight."
Although he did not explicitly name Kim Soo-hyun, the use of “Kim-ssi” (a common way to refer to someone with the surname Kim in Korean) has led to speculation. Given the ongoing controversies surrounding Kim Soo-hyun, netizens suspect that Sulli’s brother might be calling him out.
Possible Connection to Kim Soo-hyun
Kim Soo-hyun and Sulli previously worked together in the 2017 movie Real, a film that was widely criticized for its confusing plot and excessive adult themes. Despite high expectations due to its star-studded cast and production value, Real became a box office failure, and much of the negative attention was directed at Sulli, who played a daring role in the film.
At the time, Sulli faced intense public scrutiny, with many criticizing her performance and branding her as “reckless” due to the film’s controversial scenes. Some believe that Kim Soo-hyun and others involved in the project did not publicly support Sulli during the backlash. This lack of support may have deepened the struggles she was already facing with public perception and online hate.
Why Now?
The resurfacing of this issue comes amid Kim Soo-hyun’s ongoing scandals. The actor is currently under fire due to allegations regarding his past relationship with the late actress Kim Sae-ron. Some speculate that Sulli’s brother might be hinting at additional undisclosed information about Kim Soo-hyun, suggesting that he will soon face consequences for his actions.
Public Reaction
The cryptic nature of Sulli’s brother’s post has led to divided opinions online. Some netizens believe he is finally speaking up about something that has been hidden for years, while others argue that without clear details, it’s unfair to assume his words are directed at Kim Soo-hyun.
As discussions continue, many are now revisiting the events surrounding Real and questioning whether Sulli was unfairly left to face backlash alone. Whether Sulli’s brother will clarify his statement remains to be seen, but his post has undeniably added more fuel to the controversies surrounding Kim Soo-hyun.
