After a two-year break from the spotlight, actress Seo Ye Ji is finally returning. Fans have been eagerly waiting for her return to the limelight and the Kdrama world.
After getting embroiled in a series of controversies, the 34-year-old stepped away from the spotlight and did not appear in any drama.
Seo Ye Ji will make her first official appearance since 2022 at a cosmetics brand event on August 23. The event will take place at a department store in Seoul’s Jung-gu district.
The It’s Okay to Not Be Okay actress’ career came to a halt in April 2021 amid a swirl of controversies. She faced accusations of manipulating her ex-boyfriend, actor Kim Jung Hyun, and falsifying her educational background. Additionally, allegations of school bullying surfaced.
Although her agency at the time, Gold Medalist, vehemently denied the school violence claims, stating they were ‘absolutely not true.’ The scandals led to Seo Ye Ji’s temporary departure from the entertainment industry.
Seo Ye Ji’s career was derailed by a controversy that led to a year-long break. When she made an acting comeback in 2022 with the drama Eve, it unfortunately did not connect with viewers.
After parting ways with her former agency, Gold Medalist in November 2023, she signed an exclusive contract with Sublime Artist Agency in June. She also opened a personal Instagram account recently, which has over 1.3 million followers.
Now, as she prepares to make her first official appearance in two years, everyone is curious to see if she will also begin working on a new drama.
