I don't think I'm mentally prepared to watch "Dear Jinri." Sulli's death hit me harder than any other celebrity death. There is such a pain in my heart over her loss; I just can't explain it. On the one hand, I want to watch, but on the other, I'm not sure I will be able to do so.

She had one of the most prettiest smile 🥹 and maybe the weight of the world was too much for her at that time. RIP Jinri-ya, we miss you so much!
