Chapter 386 Hidden merit and fame

Two days later.

On-site at Eshan Hospital.

It started to rain lightly in the sky.

It seemed that even God was sad for the death of this beautiful peach on earth.

Due to the wishes of her family, Choi Sulli's funeral procedures will not be open to the public, and she will not be allowed to accept media interviews. Only relatives and friends are allowed to attend.

But even so, many reporters and media still rushed to the scene and surrounded the funeral venue.

However, they still had professional ethics and did not break the rules to force their way in. Instead, they chose to wait quietly outside.

Inside the crematorium.

Watching the hospital staff push Choi Sulli's body into the crematorium, Lee Ji-eun, who had been suppressed for three days, finally burst into tears.

Seeing this, Jin Qixuan finally felt relieved.

Otherwise, if you keep your emotions suppressed inside, you will get sick sooner or later.

Since the ashes had to wait for cooling before being placed in the urn, everyone waited in the lounge.

During this period, Kim Ki-hyun stayed by Lee Ji-eun's side, constantly comforting her.

Time passes slowly while waiting.

Soon, a staff member came in holding an urn.

At this point, it is time for the final burial. The cemetery location chosen is Busan, the birthplace of Choi Sulli.

Since everyone didn't want to be disturbed by reporters and media, they split into two groups.

Jin Qixuan was responsible for attracting the attention of reporters and media.

The girls followed the hearse to the cemetery.

It was already evening when the group arrived at their destination.

Seeing Choi Sulli's ashes being placed into the tomb by the staff, everyone could no longer control their emotions and burst into tears.

However, when Jin Qixuan arrived at the cemetery, the burial ceremony had already ended.

At this time, the girls were surrounding Choi Sulli's portrait on the tombstone with sad faces, talking to each other.

Seeing this, Jin Qixuan did not go forward to disturb them, but watched from a distance.

After everyone had finished talking, he walked up and helped Lee Ji-eun into the car.

IU originally wanted to return to the funeral home to continue keeping vigil for Choi Sulli, but was forcibly taken back home by Kim Ki-hyeon on the grounds that her health was of concern.

After all, a wake is just one way to express grief, not a necessity.

Since Lee Ji-eun hadn't had a good rest for several days, she fell asleep soon after getting in the car.

Looking at Lee Ji-eun's peaceful appearance while she was sleeping, Jin Qixuan couldn't help but reach out and gently stroke her cheek.

In the past few days, Lee Ji-eun has not been able to eat well or sleep well because of Choi Sulli's funeral, and her already thin cheeks have become even thinner.

This made him feel very distressed.

However, before they got home, a shocking piece of news broke out on the Internet.

——Choi Sulli’s parents had a big fight over the uneven distribution of their inheritance.

As soon as this news came out, it immediately aroused heated discussion among netizens.

Many people angrily denounced Choi Sulli's parents, saying they had lost their dignity for money.

They are so eager to fight for the inheritance when their daughter's body is still warm, they are simply unworthy of being a father and mother.

However, Choi Sulli's parents do not care about the public opinion storm stirred up online.

After all, they are not in the entertainment industry and don't need to care about those illusory fame.

All they really care about is Choi Sulli's legacy.

Seeing this, Jin Qixuan contacted Liu Yaren and told him that he could speak.

Not long after, Yoo Ah-in posted a long article on Instagram: [The harm of cyberbullying is comparable to public humiliation.]

"As public figures, we live in this humiliating environment every day. We either choose to hide and not look at social media sites, or, like Choi Sulli, choose extreme acts of resistance."

"Choi Sulli thought that as long as she stood firm, she could bounce back the attacks one by one."

"But, what finally greeted her was the road leading to death."

"After she died, everyone suddenly loved her."

"People who used to speak evil words suddenly showed compassion; people who used their lips and tongues as swords suddenly used them to speak beautiful prayers."

"No one feels guilty in this change of position."

"But when an avalanche occurs, no snowflake is innocent."

"People who are attacked by the masses die. Every bad comment is stained with blood, teeth marks and poison. You, me, him, her, it... are all links in this evil chain. When the chain is long enough, we will forget. I have cursed others, you have cursed others, and so have they."

"No one is free from guilt. Everyone is a sinner."

"To resist online violence, we should not start by changing positions and blaming others - that will create new violence - but should start from ourselves and treat everyone well."

“Even if you disagree with an opinion, you can express it gently; even if you don’t like someone, you can choose to distance yourself from them or ignore them.”

“You can continue to dislike what you don’t like, but please allow it to exist.”

“It remains unknown what human nature will look like.”

"But what we can do is to use Choi Sulli as a boundary, step back rationally, clench our teeth, and not let our poisonous tongues become a mass grave and execution platform for those innocent souls who died."

"..."

After the first long article resisting cyber violence was published, Yoo Ah-in immediately posted a long article saying, "Parents who have never treated their children well are not worthy of talking about "filial piety" and are not worthy of enjoying their children's filial piety."

"Regarding Choi Sulli's inheritance incident - if the guardian only regards the ward as a tool to make money, what qualifications does he have to ask for the ward's inheritance after the ward passes away?"

"..."

The previous long article was Liu Yaren's way of making veiled comments about the general environment.

This long article is directly directed at Choi Sulli's parents.

After Yoo Ah-in spoke out, Kim Hye-soo, Jang Yoon-jung, Park Soo-hong, and Kim Jae-joong all came out to repost the message and attached their own comments.

Park Soo-hong had all his property seized by his brother and sister-in-law, and was isolated by his family.

Kim Jae-joong was abandoned by his parents when he was young. After he became famous, his biological parents came to recognize him as their biological parent. Although they recognized each other in the end, the gap in their hearts can never be eliminated.

As these influential artists who have had similar experiences spoke out, Choi Sulli's inheritance incident was pushed to a climax.

Suddenly, terms such as #unworthy of filial piety# and #unworthy of enjoying the love of children# became hot searches on Korean websites.

However, most people were just there to watch the fun.

Only when ordinary people who have had the same experience and have suffered deeply can speak out and expose all the scars hidden in the dark to the sun can we completely arouse everyone's resonance.

Otherwise, this is no different from a regular trending search.

After the heat died down, it was completely forgotten by the public.

If we want the Blue House to pay attention to this issue, we must link it to the country's pain points and raise it to the social level.

——That is, the fertility rate is negative and young people do not get married or have children.

Although, the real reason is that he was overshadowed by the chaebol and had no hope in life, so he had to give up.

But the concept can be changed and related to real events such as "The Little Client", the first movie starring Li Donghui.

After all, the more intense the involution, the more such parents there are.

The more children suffer, the more parents will suffer. Not all parents can do anything for their children.

Some parents, like the stepmother in "The Little Client", treat their children as their punching bags and beat or scold them if they are not satisfied with the slightest thing.

Some parents, like Choi Sulli's parents, treat their children as tools to make money. They only know how to ask for things endlessly, but never fulfill their responsibilities as parents.

Some parents even sell their children to pornographic film companies for high prices when their children are still minors.

Thinking of this, Jin Qixuan quickly contacted Liu Yaren and informed him of his countermeasures and purpose.

At this point, all we have to do is wait for public opinion to ferment.

Kim Ki-hyeon's next task is to help Lee Ji-eun quickly get over the grief of losing her friend.

After all, life goes on.

For example, Lee Ji-eun is going to release a new album, hold a concert, and go to Milan to try on wedding dresses.

Jin Qixuan has to finish filming the rest of the drama and attend various brand events at the end of the year.

As for ways to make Lee Ji-eun happy, going out for fun and relaxing is definitely not the right approach.

If someone else takes a photo and posts it online, it will definitely be criticized.

She had no appetite. So, Jin Qixuan took out the finished version of "Golden Axe Love" and watched it with Li Zhien.

The rough cut was sent to him the day after Choi Sulli's wake, but Kim Ki-hyun was afraid that he would laugh out loud, so he resisted the urge to watch it.

However, Lee Ji-eun refused at first, as she was not in the mood to watch variety shows.

However, she has no say in this matter.

She didn't want to look, but Jin Qixuan held her head and forced her to look.

She closed her eyes, and Jin Qixuan pried open her eyelids and forced her to open her eyes.

She covered her ears, and Jin Qixuan forcibly pulled her hands away.

In short, Jin Qixuan must let her watch this variety show today.

At first, Lee Ji-eun was a little impatient.

However, as the program progressed, her interest began to be gradually attracted.

Especially the scene where Kim Ki-hyeon and the Love Advisors complain about Kim Jong-kook together, which eventually made Lee Ji-eun laugh.

Seeing this, Jin Qixuan also breathed a sigh of relief.

The sadness of Sulli’s death cannot be soothed by a variety show.

But at least it can make her forget her sorrow for a while and laugh happily.

People should not always be immersed in sadness, as that would make the deceased uneasy.

The dead are gone, so are the living.

After the show was over, Jin Qixuan quickly took credit:

"I created this variety show. Isn't that awesome?"

"But I saw PD Na Young-seok."

"He was just a figurehead, he didn't do anything, it was all me who did it."

Seeing Jin Qixuan's shameless attempt to take credit, Li Zhien couldn't help but shake her head and laughed, saying:

"Why did you change your career? Don't you want to be an actor anymore?"

"No, this is just for fun."

“Oh, so when will your show be aired?”

"I was thinking of riding on the wave of popularity when your new album was released, so I played "Blueming" as the background music when my uncle was on the way to find Jessi. As for the copyright fee, can I not give it to you?"

Jin Qixuan reminded her in a joking way that it was time to cheer up.

The second album released by Taigu last month was sold out like crazy.

After hearing what Jin Qixuan said, Li Zhien fell silent.

She really invested too much in this album, and there are too many interests involved.

Entertainment companies, music production companies, choreography teams, styling teams, MV shooting teams, planning and publicity teams, etc.

She is not short of money and the company can wait, but her employees still have to make a living.

The original release date had been set for Jin Qixuan’s birthday.

The pre-release song was scheduled to be released after the Blue Dragon Awards ceremony, but because of Sulli's incident, it was postponed for a long time.

Li Zhien also knew that she couldn't stay depressed like this, so she said:

"I understand. I will go to the company tomorrow."

"Why are you in such a hurry? You should rest for a few days first. After all, Shirley's seventh day of mourning has not yet passed."

Jin Qixuan just wanted her to cheer up and return to her former cheerful and lovely self, not to ask her to work herself to death.

……

Just during the days when Kim Ki-hyeon was using various methods to help Lee Ji-eun get out of the haze at home, Choi Sulli's parents finally couldn't bear it anymore.

The issue of inheritance has already been brought to court.

Although the two are Sulli's biological parents, they have divorced long ago and have established their own families. No one wants to give up the huge inheritance left by Choi Sulli.

In short, the husband said he was right, and the wife said she was right, and it became a deadlock for a while.

Moreover, legally, the two are indeed the first-line heirs to Choi Sulli's estate.

In response to this, Choi Sulli’s brother finally couldn’t help it and posted an INS to expose the matter.

"As a biological father, someone who has never even visited his sister's grave. Although I don't want to make private matters public, I still want to expose the person who shows his inconsistent words and deeds. If you really are a stranger, please live like a stranger."

With this incident as the fuse, terms such as #Not worthy of filial piety# and #Not worthy of enjoying the love of children#, which have been fermenting these days, once again became hot searches.

Previously, it was Jin Qixuan who contacted the marketing account and spent his own money.

But now, it is a spontaneous behavior of the majority of netizens.

This time, many ordinary people also started to come forward and tell their stories.

As the stories of victims were revealed one after another, a trend of boycotting "toxic parents" was set off online.

There's even a new meme circulating.

——There are three types of unkindness: giving birth to a child but not raising him, raising him but not teaching him, and teaching him but not well, so we should kill off his descendants.

The film "Capernaum", which competed for the Palme d'Or at Cannes last year with "Burning", also caused a wave of craze on the Korean Internet.

"I'm going to sue my parents for giving birth to me."

As more and more people speak out, more and more past events are being brought up again.

Those scars hidden in the darkness and covered with dust were once again exposed to the sun.

At the same time, everyone began to boycott Choi Sulli's parents online, just like they boycotted Choi Sulli in the beginning.

Speaking of which, it's quite ironic.

Eventually, the situation fermented over the course of several days.

After discussion, the court temporarily froze Choi Sulli's estate.

He also said that he would improve the laws on inheritance.

At that time, the case of Choi Sulli's inheritance will be retried.

There was cheering on the Internet for this result.

After all, this is a victory between the proletariat and the bourgeoisie.

Even though it was just a small step forward, it was still a step forward nonetheless.

……

“Things went better than expected.”

Jin Qixuan couldn't help but sigh when he saw the online comments boycotting Choi Sulli's parents.

He anticipated that even if he could resonate with ordinary people, it would take at least half a month or a month.

After all, being poisoned by chaebol ideology for so many years is not something that can be changed overnight.

And now, in just one week, the court has begun to pay attention to this issue.

However, because the issue of Choi Sulli's inheritance caused such a big stir, it actually brought up the scandal of Lotte Group again.

The chairman of Lotte Group is Shin Dong-bin.

His father Shin Kyuk-ho was one of the first generation of chaebols on the peninsula. He was among the top chaebols and a strong contender for the title of richest man on the peninsula.

At the beginning, in order to let his eldest son Shin Dong-joo take the throne, Shin Kyuk-ho drove out his original wife, Jungkwang Chuja, his daughter Shin Young-ja, and his son Shin Dong-bin from the house.

In the end, the matter became a big deal and ended up in court.

However, in the end, due to the power of the chaebol, the matter came to nothing.

Now, in order to calm public opinion and prevent its stock price from falling and its products from being boycotted, Lotte has been busy giving money to major media outlets to divert the attention to entertainment news.

Falling stock values ​​and product boycotts are minor matters.

If the person above takes the opportunity to attack them, it will be the end of them.

After all, even Lee Jae-yong was imprisoned by him...

Every media outlet on the peninsula is a tool in the hands of the major financial tycoons.

Soon, a lot of entertainment news broke out on the Internet.

What about the "ProduceX101" program being fake; Song Hye Kyo's first appearance after her divorce; the follow-up to the "Seungri Gate" incident, etc.

In just a short while, the water became muddy, and the issue of Choi Sulli's inheritance was suppressed.
