Editor's P/S
As an enthusiastic fan of Sulli, I am filled with both excitement and sadness at the news of the upcoming release of her final Netflix project, Persona: Sulli. On one hand, I am thrilled to have the opportunity to see Sulli's final performance and learn more about her life and career through the documentary. On the other hand, I am deeply saddened by the fact that Sulli is no longer with us and that this project will be her last.
The news of Sulli's death in 2019 was a shock to the world, and her fans are still grieving her loss. However, I believe that the release of Persona: Sulli will be a way for us to honor her memory and celebrate her talent. I am eager to see the film and to learn more about Sulli's life and work. I believe that this project will be a fitting tribute to a talented and beloved artist who was taken from us too soon.
