TRIGGER WARNING: The article mentions suicide and self-harm. However, these emotions and sentiments can be connected by fans.
It is never easy to threaten someone, and sometimes the pain remains with you permanently. These are the revelations of K-Pop fans that have caused us to tear up as they refer to the late Jonghyun, Sulli and Goo Hara.
Such artists have departed this world too young and will remain permanently in the hearts and minds of their fans. Although these perspectives may be hard to understand, what is being said definitely has a ring of fact.
These are the fans' sentiments that heartbreakingly hit home.
THE NEED TO TAKE MENTAL DISORDER SERIOUSLY
"When should South Korea take mental disorders sincerely? When will they cease seeing the cry of these idols as 'self-absorbed' or 'attention-seeking' actions? RIP Sulli, you were a lovely person who's going to be sadly missed.
In this tough time, I hope her family and friends find strength. And for anyone who tries to condemn this revelation, I can confidently say I haven't ever posted any remarks of hatred against Sulli or any idols."
DO WHAT YOU PREACH
"The enraging truth about the death of Sulli was that after this, nothing could ever make a difference. After Jonghyun's passing, People on social media spoke of being more sympathetic toward any, yet they still despised other famous people. Bloody hell, they even began to blame Choiza for her death rather than trying to blame themselves."
MAKE A GENUINE, LASTING TURNAROUND
"Another fallen idol. My heart aches. There is something to offer; there is something to change. Idols are kept to the harassment and cyberbullying and unrealistic norms; cancel society and mob mentality and demonize celebrities for being human or attempting to speak out their thoughts. Just how many occasions or instances before a change is produced? RIP Hara. I hope that at last, you have found solace."
SPEAK POLITELY AND COURTEOUSLY TO OTHERS
"Seriously please understand that things can harm just as much as your acts. Stop perpetuating anger and hatred, please. Please be humble. We will not really know what happens in a world of idols. They can cover so much suffering we'll never understand precisely about. Saying vile things is so simple but think of how much it will damage them, driving them over the brink.
To do anything to put an end to it. There are human idols too. They need to get help and encouragement. Rest in peace Goo Hara, Sulli and to those several idols we've lost. Rest knowing you're missed and cherished always."
TIME CANNOT ALWAYS CURE ALL SCARS
"From Jonghyun personally speaking I'm really hurting. Nowadays, it takes tremendous strength and preparation to see his face and hear his voice, so as not to start breaking down. I've never met this guy or really knew him, so it did make me feel dumb, but it's always so terrible."
