Seo Ye Ji Leaves Agency Gold Medalist After Four Years and Earlier in the Month the Court Awarded Refund of Half of the Endorsement Fees From One Brand CF

Back then it wasn’t clear if this so-called scandal would end her career but she did get dropped from projects and lost endorsements. In the last two years she did one cable drama Eve and now the lawsuit one brand lodged against her and agency Gold Medalist has come to the conclusion with the court ordering the agency to refund half of the pre-paid endorsement fee for breach of contract. That seems fair and moreover it’s clear her career will never recover to the degree it was at before the scandal, there are always new fresh talented actresses ready to pounce and get their big break (this year it’s Ahn Eun Jin, for example).
