CSJH The Grace’s Dana has posted on Instagram to express her feelings of sorrow over her company junior Sulli’s sudden passing on October 14.

On October 17, she shared the following post:

I’m sure in the future, there will be times when I get emotional and times when I’ll be able to laugh, eat, and sleep as if nothing had happened, but I hope you’ll be able to just laugh and be happy now. I didn’t think I’d ever be ready to let you go, but after sharing stories about you with other people who’ve been left behind, I was consoled and slowly prepared to let you go without even realizing it. So I sent you off today. I don’t resent you, and I don’t hate you either. It’s just that my heart hurts because I’m so sorry, and it’s such a shame. But I’ll take care of this, so you don’t have to feel sorry or worry about it, baby. In the meantime, some people say, “Will it be Dana next?” but I’ll live proudly and join you way, way later. Then I’ll try that soju you always wanted. I’ll be returning to my daily life now. It might be because you’ve already gotten used to that place [heaven], but you haven’t appeared in my dreams for the first time, and I haven’t cried either. I love you. Goodbye, my pretty dongsaeng [younger sister].

Dana debuted in 2001 as a solo artist of SM Entertainment and joined CSJH The Grace in 2005.
