sulli-net: “To express her beliefs in declaring her ‘no bra’ stance, welcoming the unconstitutional ruling on abortion or praising her appearance would have been read as a provocation by men. I think Sulli was a case in which she constantly grew up through feedback from women. In the process, Sulli received critical feedback from women her own age, and became interested in feminism issues and made various courageous and brave statements. I believe she was a woman who grew up and influenced society through the changing perception of the times.” © “For South Korea’s deeply conservative society, her “controversial” – with controversial purposely put in quotes here – opinions like not being a fan of bras or posting public photos with her boyfriends stirred the country’s notoriously harsh online commenter community. The star also wasn’t afraid to get political as one of the very few celebrities showing public support when South Korea overturned its abortion ban and staking her position as pro-choice. 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. While she will be undeniably missed, one hopes that not only did Sulli’s outspoken, confident way of living make a change to the traditional, harshly rigid standards that Korean celebrities seemingly must keep, but also evolve the toxic culture of online commenters that plague and taunt the K-pop stars – perhaps more than anyone may realize.” © -- source link
