The brother of the late Sulli has once again posted a cryptic message online. 

On the 22nd, Sulli’s brother wrote on his personal account, "I have a 37-minute recorded phone call with my sister's former manager. The recording includes mentions of IU, Lee Robe (NB: also known as Lee Jaehyun or Lee Sarang), Kim Soohyun, a psychiatric hospital, SM Entertainment, and even parts of my sister’s painful private life at the time."

He continued, "There are many things I want to ask, but I'm holding myself back because of my mother."

He also stated, "Last year, I only lightly touched on the issue surrounding the movie. I do not want to use this in the future either," adding, "I want to make it clear beforehand that none of this is fabricated."

Earlier, on the 21st, he had written on his personal account, "The moment you crawl back out, it's round two. The choice is yours."

When an acquaintance asked, "Who?" he responded, "That one bastard who came from the stars," which many interpreted as a reference to 'My Love from the Stars,' the drama that Kim Soohyun starred.

It is being speculated that Sullis older brother made the remarks with Kim Soohyun's potential return to the entertainment industry in mind.

Recently, attention is focused on Kim Soohyun's potential comeback after police concluded that the controversy surrounding his alleged relationship with late Kim Saeron while she was a minor were completely false.

According to an arrest warrant request submitted to prosecutors regarding Garo Sero Research Institute CEO Kim Se-ui, the Seoul Gangnam Police Station reportedly stated, "The suspect intentionally spread false information to defame actor Kim Soohyun despite fully knowing that he had not dated the deceased while she was a minor and that he was not responsible for the circumstances surrounding her death."

Furthermore, the police also concluded that the KakaoTalk conversation logs between the two and voice recordings of Kim Saeron released by Kim Se-ui had been manipulated.

Meanwhile, in March of last year, Sulli's older brother raised allegations that she may have been pressured into filming bed scenes and nude scenes for the the movie she starred in, 'Real,' which was released back in 2017. Lee Sarang, who is known as Kim Soohyun's cousin, served as both the representative of the investment and production company and director of the movie, while Kim Soohyun starred as the lead actor.

In response, Kim Soohyun's agency, Gold Medalist, released an official statement saying, "Regarding the late Sulli's bed scene, the actress proceed with the filming after prior discussion and awareness beforehand." Addressing claims that the bed scene was forced despite the existence of a body double, the agency added, "There was a 'standing actor' who replaces the actor's blocking during filming preparations, but there was no stunt double who acts in place of the actor."
