Another SM Entertainment artist is embroiled in another controversy. After Hyoyeon, f(x) member Sulli is now under speculation that her recent hospitalization is related to her dating scandal with Dynamic Duo's Choiza last year.

By the end of March, Sulli complained of severe stomachache, after which she was rushed to the hospital for examination and treatment. SM Entertainment later on revealed that her condition was caused by excessive stress. However, one netizen suggests that there is more to the story than was mentioned.

A screenshot of a KakaoTalk conversation circulated the internet which read, "My friend works at the hospital, and my friend said that Sulli was in the emergency room because of XXXX."

After the rumor made its rounds on the internet, SM Entertainment announced that they will be firm in taking legal action against those responsible for the creation and spread of the malicious controversy.

An administrator of Sulli's fanpage tweeted, "SM Entertainment is in the middle of acquiring documents relating to Sulli's harassment. The lawyer says the more documents [the agency has] the better chance [they have on the case]. The people who spread those malicious rumors should prepare themselves."

A rep from SM Entertainment also said, "We will be taking serious legal action against the netizens who are involved in the spread of this rumours about Sulli. We are now in the process of accumulating evidence."
