Pop Singer Commits After Suffering Backlash Online

After suffering backash for accidentally revealing a nipple on Instagram, K-pop star Sulli has been found dead at her home.

Sulli, 25, had previously suffered a huge amount of online abuse in what became known as the ‘no-bra’ scandal a month ago after she repeatedly showed her nipples on social media

It is reported that the pop singer then suspended her music career due to the abuse she had received.

Sulli was found by her manager at her home in Seongnam, south of the capital, Seoul at around 3.20pm local time (7.20am UK time).

Korean police said that they are working on the assumption that she may have committed suicide.

Seoul police said in a statement that her manager had tried to call round to the 25-year-old’s house last night but received no response.

They added that the K-pop star was battling severe depression and had spoken out against cyber-bullying in the past.

Sulli was known for being controversial and has been slammed on social media since 2016 after she began appearing with no bra on under her top.

She has also appeared drunk during live streams and been criticised for doing so.

Sulli’s former f(x) bandmate, Amber Liu, has posted her shock at what’s happened.

‘Due to recent events I’ll be putting on hold my upcoming activities. Sorry everyone. Thank you for your thoughts,’ Liu said on Twitter.

She was close with another K-pop star called Jonghyun who committed suicide aged 27. She paid tribute during his funeral in 2017.
