Sulli’s Brother’s Explosive Claims
On March 30, Sulli’s brother took to Instagram for the eighth time to voice his concerns regarding the Real bed scene controversy. In his latest cryptic post, he accused Kim Soo Hyun of attempting to silence him by involving their mother. His message, written over a black solid color background, read, "Did you like nagging my mom instead of talking to me? The idea you came up with in 48 hours was to try and silence me by calling my mom."
The tone of his post was filled with anger and frustration, further escalating the situation. He used harsh words to describe the actor, calling him a "low-life Korean bstard"* and a "fcking idiot"* while questioning his role in Sulli’s distress.
The Questions That Remain Unanswered
Sulli's brother has been persistently raising three crucial questions about his sister’s involvement in Real’s controversial scenes:
-
Why were the bed scenes added to the script later without Sulli’s prior knowledge?
-
Why was she allegedly coerced into performing them when a body double was supposed to be used?
-
Why did the production team claim the body double was unavailable when she was reportedly present on set?
These questions have intensified the online backlash against Kim Soo Hyun, with fans demanding accountability and transparency regarding the situation.

Kim Soo Hyun’s agency, GOLDMEDALIST, finally addressed the controversy on March 28 with a brief statement.
