Actress Han Ye Seul Dating YG Music Producer Teddy

The South Korean entertainment grand dating train of 2013 continues unabated, and with a little over one month left I’m dying to have it go out with a giant bang. What other fantasy pairings might be able to shock and awe? Long time bachelor Song Seung Heon secretly dating Park Min Young since they did Dr. Jin hence her acting hiatus? His BFF So Ji Sub making The Master’s Sun fan dreams come true by romancing Gong Hyo Jin? Lee Jun Ki perhaps finding love with former co-star Lee Da Hae because both are so active in China?

Han Ye Seul has been completely out of the acting arena for two years since the major Spy Myung Wol filming debacle of the Summer of 2011. I lived through it since I was live watching and recapping what was a truly horrendous drama, where the lack of quality was overshadowed by the filming stress that got to Han Ye Seul and she basically quit the drama midway by hopping on a plane for LA. She returned less than 24-hours later but it was one of the craziest drama filming situations in the industry. She didn’t leave the industry and instead has been working steadily in CF gigs, attending events, and generally being a starlet. She’s rumored to be making her acting comeback in early 2014 with a drama called Shooting Star (Meteor), though nothing is confirmed yet. Continue reading
