Four years ago, the world of entertainment lost one of its brightest stars, Sulli (Choi Jinri), leaving a void that could never be completely filled. However, the mystery surrounding her life and legacy is about to be unveiled in a stunning fashion at the “28th Busan International Film Festival.” The reason? The public screening of ‘To Jinri,’ a film that encapsulates her final moments and an intimate interview with the beloved Sulli.
The Captivating Moment
On September 5th, during the press conference of the “28th Busan International Film Festival,” it was announced with excitement that ‘To Jinri‘ would be part of the “Wide Angle Documentary Showcase.” Organizers did not hesitate to label this work as a “captivating theme,” and the reason is clear: ‘To Jinri‘ offers us the opportunity to hear Sulli in her own voice, in her last interview before her tragic passing.
The Origin of ‘To Jinri’
Originally, this work was known as ‘Persona: Sulli,’ being the second season of the ‘Persona‘ series, starring the talented IU and released in 2019. ‘Persona‘ comprised five short films directed by five gifted directors, each centered around an outstanding actress.
However, in 2019, while Sulli was filming her segment, her life was tragically cut short, leaving the project in a state of indefinite suspension. There were previous rumors of its release on platforms like Netflix, but now, ‘To Jinri‘ finally reaches the audience through the “Busan International Film Festival” under a title that resonates deeply in our hearts.
An Unforgettable Legacy
Sulli, a star who debuted as a child actress in 2005 and later joined the f(x) group in 2009, earned the love and admiration of countless fans for her talent in both music and acting. In 2015, she chose to chart her own path as a solo artist, actress, and presenter, showcasing her versatility and charisma with every step she took. Her departure in October 2019 left a void in the industry that will never be fully filled, but ‘To Jinri’ offers us the opportunity to remember her and appreciate her unique legacy.
At the “28th Busan International Film Festival,” viewers will have the chance to witness Sulli’s final interview, an emotional tribute to a star who shone brightly in the world of entertainment. ‘To Jinri‘ promises to be a heartfelt experience that allows everyone to remember and celebrate the unforgettable Choi Jinri.
