Recently, f(x)'s Luna shared her sadness and struggles after the passing of two close friends: friend and former f(x) member Sulli and other close friend Lee Ji Eun. She did a live broadcast on the 3rd of March in 'Human Documentary'.
However, the latter's family is in a rage with their deceased daughter's name being mentioned. They claimed that Luna did not ask permission to mention her late friend on screen.
f(x) Luna received a warm sympathy among the many when she opened up about her painful experience of losing two important people in her life: Sulli and Lee Ji Eun (Sophia). In an emotional interview, she narrated how hard it was for her to see the people close to her disappear forever.
Aside from revealing the pain of Sulli's passing, she also mentioned that in October of that year, a close friend died: Sophia. She described her as someone like a family. She was not expecting to see her leave so soon.
However, it turned out that the family of Sophia did not find her statement on TV as something that would positively appeal to the image of the deceased loved one. They found it offensive, so, a statement coming from the sister of her late friend surfaced on her SNS account.
She said that there is a difference between Luna and Sophia, as the kpop artist is a public figure while her sister is an ordinary citizen. She does not seem to understand why their privacy is being displayed. She mentioned that she knew that her Instagram address surfaced all over the internet and some were asking if she is alright.
"The fans have messaged me as a dead person's sister and even asked me to console Luna because she was lonely. I had nothing to say as I was shocked. "
She added that they are hurting and struggling because of the passing of their sister. At first, she never minds it as she knew Luna was totally hurting. However, after Sophia's name surfaced once again 'Human Documentary' during the kpop star's interview, she believes that it was not right and can't take it anymore. Therefore, she spoke on behalf of her family.
"At the very least, you should have reached out to the family and informed us. None of us in the family knew her and I was the only one who saw her come and go yet she didn't even contact me. "
"Please stop using my sister's death. Even if it meant unintentional, you still did wrong."
For Koreans, the passing of a loved one is a very sensitive matter for the family and they usually take this scenario in private. Luna's response to this is in the next news. f(x) Luna's intention might not agree with the other persons involved.
