This week’s news report that K-actress Seo Ye Ji was the alleged ex-girlfriend to Kim Jung Hyun who played a controlling role in the Time drama production debacle three years ago could not have come at a worse time for her. Her agency has not released a statement responding to the allegations first reported by Dispatch nearly 24 hours ago, but she was scheduled to attend a movie screening premiere this week for her upcoming thriller movie Recalled (Memories of Tomorrow) costarring Kim Kang Woo. It reads like a Flower of Evil redux with memory loss and seeing the future thrown in as a wife starts to think her seemingly perfect husband is a murderer. Now K-ent is reporting that she will not attend the event and on a personal front she has deleted all content in her Instagram account (though has not deleted the account itself). Netizens are also going through all prior interviews given by her or BTS or her costars working with her and noted a troubling incident on the set of thriller movie Another Way in 2015 with Kim Jae Wook. While the two leads were filming an drunk driving scene, she veered the car in real life into the opposing lane and almost caused a head on collision to make it more realistic and appeared very into the scene. Seo Ye Ji herself gave an interview that the director of the movie made her inhale real coal smoke during a scene when her character was trying to commit suicide and she had such trouble breathing afterwards so maybe method acting was asked of her during the driving scene as well. Who knows but goodness so much going on in K-net these days.

I have a question. I looked up the account that was shown on the article but it isn’t a certified account and the followers count is so low. So is that really her account or a gaffe on media reporting? I hope his and her side can speak up whenever possible because I really want to know their thoughts on this.
All articles about that said that it was her personal instagram account, so I guess it wasn't public
Oh I see, Thank you!
She had a very wonderful public account. She used to post her nephew's pics a lot....About a year and half ago completely erased every last bit of posts then I guess she deleted that handle....so what account is this? She opened a new, private one?
Interesting, thanks for sharing your intel! That is strange haha
@Gem
It's possible it was a fan account. There are tons of them on IG. Her fans say she communicates with them through DC fancafe (or rarely, on GM's IG) as seen with the pictures posted on her birthday.
Um...Seo Ye Ji hasn't had a IG way before this news broke out...her deleting her IG after this news broke out is false information.
Koala before you post this false information should check that yeaji deleted her ig after she transfer agency which is in 2020 she never deleted anything during this dating scandal broke out
she is only sharing the news and what she hears from news reports, she’s not a reporter or a police officer, she doesn’t need to verify every single thing she hears. If she’s wrong, we can politely correct her. It’s not a big deal haha
If this blog allowed reactions to comments, I would put a thousand hearts on it. Totally true.
@Laura
Yes, she's not a reporter. She's just a blogger. But she's writing about real people, real lives. And some people (not everyone, of course) believe what they read here as the gospel because the logic is “if it wasn't true, Koala wouldn't have written about it.” So she has a responsibility to at least verify some things before writing about them like the truth. Just look at that bold title: “Seo Ye Ji Erases Instagram Contents...” That already sticks in the mind, no matter what the rest of the post says.
And just to be clear, I'm in no way or form defending SYJ. She deserves all the censure she gets for her part in what happened and needs to make amends.
@Koala
I'd hope you get your news from more credible sources than AllKpop and Koreaboo. She deleted her Insta way before IOTNBO allegedly due to unpleasant hateful + sexual comments by people. Your blog isn't a fiction blog. You write about real stuff here which a lot of people read. So you have a responsibility. Please take it seriously.
@{} - She gets them straight from the korean press. There are more than 20 articles on naver that all mentioned about the deletion so it is international fans like yourself who is making assumptions she is getting her stories from allkpop. Go to naver.com. key in 서예지 SNS 게시물 삭제and see for yourself the list. All are legit Korean news media outlets reporting the story. Heres a few... https://n.news.naver.com/entertain/article/015/0004529068 (korea Economics Times)

She has been corrected. Where is the correction in either the headline or post itself? And what was impolite about Ulikeiu's comment correcting her? The part of my comment meant for her was addressed directly to her, not you so pipe down now. It is international fans like yourself who make these excuses for her and never hold her accountable for the misinformation, hate and toxicity she spreads around here. Good day.
According to Naver, they were from her Instagram. Her not attending the movie premiere, deleting her posts is very telling.
Exactly. She has yet to refute anything, so there you go lol.
In hindsight, she should have continued her promotional duties and gone to the screening still. Even if this was true then or now, it would have at least put on a good front for her professional image that she still showed up to promote the film. I noticed there were interviews about the film, so they did occur, but now she's burning bridges with the people involved in the film as well.
I thought she deleted her instagram pre IONTBO. So she made a new one?
Her text exchange with KJH is damning, if true. And I can't imagine Dispatch releasing made up texts. So her agency will have to investigate this further before releasing a statement. Cancelling her press conference appearance is smart in the meantime. This and her Baeksang nomination now show what bad timing all of this is for her.
The fact that her agency hasn’t released a statement to refute this and then her cancelling her appearance - seems like Dispatch had the right of it. Most of the time, they do.
Method acting... it’s not uncommon at all and more than 50% of Hollywood does it from an article I’ve read. In fact, I’m literally reading a book on it by Kate Stewart lol. Talk about coincidence. But if it’s really method acting, what she did until that scene with KJW is messed. They could’ve gotten into a real accident. Getting more effed by the day.
My 2 cents on Seo Ye-Ji.
I don't know what happened behind the scenes not here to speculate. This is just my opinon.
SYJ definitely has the look of a strong woman and I mean just her facial. I have been with strong women in the past So I know when I see one and she definitely is one. You can recognize that on her energy, facial features and her voice above everything. She has mesmerizing deep voice and she has strong motherly instinct some think it's their right to take possession over their children and men. She is modern day one of these ruthless saguek dowager queens you see in dramas who are very opinionated and you can't change their opinion on things they strongly dislike and almost to extreme.
But that is not why guys let her control them it's because She also looks like the type whos extremely wild in bed and I assume this just from her energy and way she carries herself. She has an inner temper fiery that energy translates well into the bed. This is my analysis no speculation
Regardless what kind of strong woman she is, the very bottom line here is...whatever her personal dynamic she had with her ex-bf should not have breached into the professional sphere. Tbf, nobody cares if KJH going to ruin his own career to meet his ex-gf's demand but him succumbing to her demands affecting others (his co-stars, the staffs and production teams working hard on the project).
Its totally up to her on how she managed her personality be that she is head-strong with deep voice or her facial or that she is wild in bed, as long as not affecting unwilling participants.
Get help....regardless of what she has done or not, what you've written here is terrible, disturbing and creepy. Sincerely, seek professional help.
WOW.. A bit to aggressive reply to my analysis which was outside of all speculations to be frank it was an innocent view outside of speculations. I should have put a bigger disclaimer.
I don't know why since I am a guy maybe my inner self wants deep down to get laid with SYJ. I mean why not she is a fine lady.
But outside of that don't take my post to serious. It's from a horny guy just ignore it
She fits her zodiac sign which is an aries.
Seo Yeji not remaining silent about the 2839283 messed up rumors about her as well as not making a public appearance for her upcoming movie speaks volumes lol. Anyway both she and Kim Jung Hyun are at fault and I'm happy all of this has come to light giving justice to all the hardships endured by Seohyun and the rest of the Time cast/crew.
*remaining silent not NOT remaining silent
I wonder what did she do so wrong that she has to hide. The private interaction between herself and any of her ex is that, private. It is a huge invasion of privacy where the contents may reveal a controlling person but there is no crime committed. Is south korea a land fueled by gossips and rumours and not by evidence of a crime?
