Achievements:
After signing a record deal with SM Entertainment, Sulli
rose to prominence as a member of the girl group f(x) formed in 2009. The group
achieved both critical and commercial success, with four Korean number-one
singles and international recognition after becoming the first K-pop act to
perform at SXSW. Concurrently with her music career, Sulli returned to acting
by starring in the SBS romantic comedy series, To the Beautiful You (2012), a
Korean adaptation of the popular shōjo manga Hana-Kimi where her performance
was positively received and earned her the two SBS Drama Awards and a
nomination at the 49th Paeksang Arts Awards.
Sulli's film career progressed with her starring in the fantasy
swashbuckler The Pirates (2014) and the coming-of-age drama Fashion King
(2014). During the press tour for The Pirates, Sulli took a hiatus from the
entertainment industry due to health issues and following a year long absence
from promoting with f(x), she left the group in August 2015. Between 2015 and
2017, she embarked on a number of modelling campaigns before becoming a global
brand ambassador for Estée Lauder. Sulli garnered attention
for her role in the experimental neo-noir thriller Real (2017). She later
returned to the music industry in 2018, making a guest appearance on Dean's
single "Dayfly" and releasing her debut solo single
"Goblin" in June 2019, which was her last musical project prior to
her death.
Sulli was recognised as a prominent figure in Korean popular
culture for her outspoken persona, becoming the most Googled person in South
Korea in 2017, ahead of the current President of South Korea Moon Jae-in.
