Again, f(x) has stirred up some controversy related to behavior and mannerisms.  

 

This time, attention is focused on Sulli, who was clutching the hem of her skirt instead of dancing to 'Rum Pum Pum Pum' during f(x)'s performance on September 11.  The girls were on stage for the World Federation of Neurosurgical Societies symposium, which was taking place in Coex this year. 

 

Netizens are pointing out that she failed to do the part of the dance where the girls lie on the ground and eventually push themselves back up to the music.  In the pictures above, Sulli is just squatting down while holding her skirt.  People are saying she is not trying her best and leaving criticism on YouTube and on-line forums.

 

One criticism said, "She has neither the energy nor the drive.  Far from giving fun and energy to the audience, it feels like she is taking them away."  Another said, "Maybe Sulli really is not meant for the idol life as she doesn't seem like a pro the way she always surprises people with her attitude."

 

However, others have defended her, saying it might be due to her sudden diet plan or perhaps the skirt was too short and she just felt embarrassed.

 

SM Entertainment spoke up in her defense, as well, saying, "It appears that Sulli failed to follow the choreography because she was not feeling well at the time."

 

The part occurs at 1:20 in the video below. Check it out and let us know what you think.

Why does people have to point out little things idols do when it's bad but never mention much when it comes to the good?!?I'm gettin' tired over here~They're ruining the idols image and bringing down reputations jus becos they're in the center of attention!Even though I'm not an af(x)tion,[sry if I spelled it wrong] we hav a responsibility to protect our idols as a Kpop fan...Being a fan doesn't mean u hav to only care 'bout ur fandom...we need to SEE how other fans would feel if their fandom is being criticized.Peeps should unite...After all,both parties are fans~

I am really getting tired of netizens singling Sulli out for every little thing she does. And I seriously believe that the hate she gets is mostly from immature fans of guys that are close to her or paired with her and mostly because these same immature fans are jealous of her closeness with them. Grrr it s really making me so mad!!! And it also makes me sad cause there are also some fx fans that are also bashing her for the sake of making their bias look good and supposedly Sulli dragging fx down. Well let me tell you this, if not for Sulli I wouldn't have known fx existed in the first place and if not for her, I wouldn't have bought physical albums and digital copies of their songs. Go Sulli! We love you...

People are so stupid and ignorant! If you watch the video you can see she's not performing very well, she looks so tired and ill. I bet those haters couldn't do any better, they'd crumble under the pressure Sulli has. How rude of them.
