私小説型スター女優のソルリ(2017年3月）
Sulli passed away on October 14, 2019.
So she will be gone in two and a half years.
She was 25 years old (Korean age) - she died too young.
Hara, who was active in KARA (girl group), followed Sulli in committing suicide the following month on November 24.
This was 40 days after Sulli's suicide.
Hara was working in Japan when Sulli committed suicide.
When she returned to Japan and stood in front of her grave, her first words were, "I'm sorry I'm late."
It seems to accurately express what she was feeling at the time.
Hara was a friend whom Sulli looked up to like an older sister and trusted.
Hara was a family member who was relied on by her parents and family for living expenses and pocket money.
Their similar circumstances likely brought them closer.
However, it seems likely that their relationship grew closer around the time Hara went on hiatus after her hectic career with KARA.
Sulli, a popular member of girl group f(x), was announced to have left the group on August 7th, 2015.
Her unrestrained behavior created many haters, and the sarcasm and insults from haters caused friction and stress, which likely robbed Sulli of her motivation to continue working with f(x).
Although she was able to pursue a solo career without leaving SM, the entertainment industry is not so kind that work will just come to her like a free-spirited Sulli.
She was the most popular member of f(x), she was pretty, and her acting skills weren't that bad, so it's likely that they wanted to offer her a role in a drama right away.
In fact, it seemed like there were a lot of such offers floating around.
However, seeing as how they eventually disappeared, it seems likely that she either didn't want to do it, or that there were many cases where they couldn't come to an agreement at the final negotiation stage.
In the end, it seems that Sulli's selfishness was the problem.
Drama production depends on the teamwork of the staff to maintain a good quality of work and a good atmosphere on set.
Sulli's role is naturally to play the leading role, so for the set, Sulli, who might suddenly disappear, could become a time bomb that could explode at any time.
Even though SM tried desperately to assign her work, it seems that it was difficult to get results.
In the end, the fact that she was only able to get work in places that were like self-deprecating jokes could be said to have illuminated the path of her fate even before she died.
Meanwhile, Hara's extremely busy activities with KARA were reaching their final chapter.
What can I say...I really can't take my eyes off this girl.
I can't stop wondering what kind of drama awaits her in real life next.
Although she has been caught up in disaster once again, judging from the photos, she seems perfectly fine.
Anyway, I'm glad.
However, with all the stress and turmoil that continues to occur, where will she get the money to pay for all that?... It feels like she wouldn't be rewarded as a star actress if she had nothing...although her always cheerful demeanor doesn't suggest any dissatisfaction at all...
I wonder if this introduction is a bit unclear...?
Stars shine by playing the heroine in the patterns of people's lives woven together in a fictional world (films, dramas) where their daily lives are shrouded in secrecy...
A generation or two ago, no, even a generation ago, the stars of the past (actors and actresses) maintained their dignity by separating their real lives from their fictional world.
They maintained a haven of peace that fans could not enter.
However, since television came into the living room, the impression cannot be erased that this has been gradually stripped away with the times.
The living room with a television became a place where you could peek into a glamorous fictional world with the flip of a switch.
Until the end of the 20th century, stars who did not appear on television had a strong presence, but with the start of the 21st century, such stars eventually disappeared.
In a sense, you could say that they were taken over by TV stars.
Actors (actresses) and other entertainers who gained popularity on TV became more and more like stars, while the stars who maintained their dignity by drawing customers to the cinema quietly disappeared as they grew older.
Television turned movie actors (actresses) into TV entertainers, and brought together people working in various industries to create professional entertainers.
TV personalities, lawyers, doctors, and athletes all sit together and answer quizzes on TV shows together.
These days, TV in the living room is dominated by variety shows that bring together successful people from a variety of professions.
People who are passionate about something or collect things don't like such shows.
TV in the living room has become just for people who are killing time, and people with various hobbies turn to cable TV and the Internet in search of videos that have something in common.
In the midst of all this, K-POP, which has grown alongside the spread of the Internet, can be said to have succeeded in constructing a fictional world that shows the activities of a new generation of stars.
Sulli is a strange idol star who has descended from a faraway world.
She was the visual center of the girl group "f(x)," produced by SM Entertainment, the agency that led K-POP.
Her presence has allowed the group to maintain its elegance and glamour.
She was also the one who brought about its autobiographical, outrageous nature.
Her words and actions were always stimulating and provocative, attracting the attention of those around her.
At the same time, she attracted a lot of attention and popularity, which naturally created many haters.
This ultimately backfired on her, leading to her leaving the group.
Looking at her now, she doesn't seem to regret any of the actions she'd taken.
She always seems like a positive, optimistic girl.
After leaving the group, she has returned to her original career as an actress.
However, despite her overwhelming fame and popularity, I don't know what kind of work she does.
I hope that she will play the heroine of a long drama, but I don't know when that will happen.
However, in her real life, she causes a lot of buzz.
In some cases, she deliberately invites criticism, but in other cases, like this time, she causes something without even realizing it.
In other words, she is a star.
Although she was a member of a less prestigious group called Girls' Generation, her fame and presence are not far behind those of Girls' Generation's Taeyeon and Yoona.
If Girls' Generation's Yoona is a star through movies and dramas, Sulli is a star who skillfully cuts together elements of her real life to play herself.
I don't know if this has translated into a decent income.
But it's fair to say that she is a star actress of the autobiographical type that the fictional world of K-pop has produced.
