I’ve been getting into more Korean media over the past year or so, watching Kdramas and being more interested in Kpop, and I’ve noticed that so many of their celebrities get involved in scandals or controversies. There are some that I’ve found out about that are upsetting because they’re false, but seemingly derail careers.
Seo Soo-jin from I-dle, she was in the group for a few years, but got hit with bullying accusations that led to her leaving the group. I-dle would then come back with their biggest hits ever in Tomboy and Queencard, whilst Soo-Jin’s accusations were proven false. She came back as a soloist, but under a company that seems to have either no idea, or no interest in actually promoting her. She had her once promising career halted by fake accusations.
Ahn Jae-hyun is an actor that had a highly publicised divorce, in said divorce his wife slandered his name and bled him dry of all his money, even leaving him in debt. Eventually he was proven to be innocent from all the wild stuff his ex wife accused him of, but his career has been pretty much over, at least acting wise. He’s only been in one project since 2019, and at this point instead of continuing his once promising acting career, he’s just trying to make sure he has enough money for when he retires.
Seo Ye-ji is another actress that suffered from bullying accusations along with stuff to do with her abusing her ex boyfriend. The bullying stuff has mostly been proven false, and whilst her relationship with her ex was toxic, it was toxic from both sides, she wasn’t solely in the wrong. The last 5 years of her career have been halted because of nothing serious, and she’s only recently signed with a new company that can hopefully jump start her career again.
