K-actress Seo Ye Ji Issues Formal Statement and Apology for Her Past Scandal, Blames it on Her Immaturity, Promises to Be Better Going Forward

On the heel of a production team member on upcoming K-drama Eve speaking to reporters about how leading lady Seo Ye Ji‘s still silence on her scandal from last year would be problematic for the drama when it came time to promote, a day later Seo Ye Ji issued her first statement on the scandal. It was an apology but very vague, it never actually discusses the scandal in any facts or details or even mention of what the scandal was about, but simply apologizes being so late in responding. She said she was reflecting after hearing so much reproach towards her, and apologizes for making people uncomfortable due to her shortcomings and disappointing her fans. She chalked it all up to immaturity and will work hard going forward to be careful and show her more mature self. Wow, if this is what she has to say then it might’ve been better to just stay silent because this is just a total nothingburger vague word salad. But then again, those who don’t think she did anything wrong will continue to support her and those who find her distasteful to watch onscreen will just not consume her acting projects still.

  • publicity stunt
    i think her agency and production team are worried about the eve lol so pushed her to release lame apology

    • Publicity stunt? She trends all the time - 20 + articles were posted on her when the script reading was announced. Mind you not all song and praise but mention her name Korean reporters are over it like a rash. The girl suffered the worse witch hunt ever but hey that's what we would expect from Korea. Fortunately those at TvN, Studio Dragon and CJES must have a lot more insight into the situation to take a huge risk to cast her then finger tip tapping trolls. There are a dozen hugely talented Korean actresses that could take the role but it was SYJ that was offered it first. That says a lot.

      • that says alot that she thought she needed to release apology for her drama sake lol
        witch hunt what? she barely explained or gave a proofs. such easy getaway for accused of education forgery, bullying and abuser.
        other actors are struggling to clear their name while she only released vague apology.

      • Show me the proof of names and their claims not some shoddy "he said she said" then we'll talk. Drama is like 3 months away. No one knows when that apology was written or the date of the script reading photos and when they were taken? Education forgery? Articles written highlighted what happened in Spain and her agency gave an explanation but no not good enough. Yes I get it - why is she allowed to return so easily? I guess there are those who don't believe everything they read on line enough to form a opinion and fall hook line and sinker.

      • then what about the boycott of another way movie because of her false interview about briquette? endangering other actor because she wanted to immersing her role by sipping alcohol? there are alot things that left vague? dont think everything is just because she is witch hunted lol

      • OMG are you serious? Firstly stick with your claim of bullying and being abusive and answer straight did you read any names and actual confirmed statements if not okay you're going off unfounded allegations. Those who posted refused to divulge their names so it didn't go anywhere. Unless you can give actual facts I will wait. The filming of the 2015 movie 'Another way' the other actor was Kim Jae Wook and I guess he wasn't fazed by the scene I mean if he was severely traumatised then why would he go out of his way to gift her a coffee truck when she was in 2017 Save me? 170617 IG UPDATE from King Entertainment: "In a hot weather today, ?Our dear actress #SeoYeji 's movie co-star in #AnotherWay #KimJaeWook .Please stop throwing assumptions out because you want to make a point. Korean reporters do it for a living they need her name to drive revenue and viewership kinda like this blog here too.

      • @mumma bear 015/pearline

        No need to pathetically post under different accounts pretending to be different people to back yourself up defending your scandalous plastic ugly flop nugu queen. Just as pathetic as the fraud you worship.

        And what are you even doing here? Go join your fellow brainwashed morons and puppets on Twitter. Go worship her there, ain't no one here bowing to that b!tch. So scram, peasant!

      • I am not pearline and if you bothered to read the posts you would be able to recognise that. Can you not tell the two streams of thought that are running? I didn't know that you were psychic? Get a grip and stay triggered. I am not pearline okay? Lastly it would be a huge waste of time posting under different aliases Thank you very much.

      • Go jack off to syj's dead eyed stare on twitter with the rest of her brain rotting followers weirdo
        Watching u defend her so pathetically is hilarious

      • Me defend her? No more like outing you lot over your insane comments. Nothing concrete is given just trivial pettiness full of malice and bitterness.Ewww now you're going the perverse way because you can't fathom the idea all you've got is really nothing. You've exhausted yourself.

  • I guess no one from this blog will be watching Eve in June then. No articles to fuel any commentary so problem solved.

    • I will try to watch as I said she is a talented actress and I like her since ?⭐. I just hope she will be in better behavior after this scandal and apology. Peace.

  • it's just so funny to me that the pics of her drama's script reading was released and here comes the half-assed apology nearly a year later LOL. girl, it's better if you just stayed silent instead of pretending to have a conscience.

    • jhdbksf yeah tbh the funny part about this is the timing, why not release the statement earlier? All apology statements in k-ent are dry and written by publicists but she waited until the last possible minute hahaha

  • No apology would have been better than this. Its just in response to yesterday's criticism that she didn't apologize lol Embarrassing.

  • Ugh! Too arrogant. With this “apology”, It is obvious that she don’t see anything wrong with what she had done. She apologized because she have to.

    I always thought that her role in IOTBO was acted so naturally. It turns out I was so right because that is how she is in real life, cold and selfish.

    • Shes so beautiful and talented. So everyone must stand up for the queen. Men go weak in her presence and women prostrate to her. Anyone who dares speak of a different opinion or experience will risk being hunted and cancelled. She has the power guns backing her. Even big networks cannot escape her charm and famous directors dream about casting her. No one touches the queen. SO BOW PEASANTS BOW. @mummabear

      • If this was the case that she is so beautiful(which I don’t see) and talented(never heard of her before IOTBO) she should have been a Big Star ages ago! But she was not and she still is not!

        The reality is , she only got the recognition and popularity because of her drama with KSH. So, SYJ fans stop dreaming. One hit wonder is what she is.

      • I guess I have been put on the naughty list because my posts are not being added. However the posts here show how much vitirol is aimed at her and that is okay. And seriously @Pearline that is so dry really 'No one touches the queen. SO BOW PEASANTS BOW.' Can always count on this blog to be the outlet for a let's have a digging party. Nothing surprises me at all. It is to be expected.

  • What a joke of an apology. Anyone with even ONE braincell intact can tell that she doesn't even mean it, she only made it worse if anything by being so insincere about it. At least for me this makes me dislike her even more and I will definitely not watch that drama when there's plenty of other dramas to watch and support. People can make mistakes and I totally believe in second chances if they truly repent, but the window for that passed 10 months ago when the scandal happened and she stayed silent and didn't apologize for her part in it.

  • The first photo doesn’t show the beauty that her fans are raving about. LOL! Koala must hate her so much to choose this one! ?

    • Kmedia also using that photo in several articles about her apology lmao someone must be really pissed at the timing of her statement

  • She should just keep quiet and acted like nothing happened. I don't blame her for her ex's behavior, dude is an adult tho. But this apology seems like a 'sorry not sorry' attitude. Probably some sponsors need her to do that.

  • Should have apologized right away. Doing this now means she was pressured to do so because she needs to promote and that scandal would always be the question that would top each reporters mind.

    If the ratings do well or bad it would always point back to her anyway.
