She was at the center of multiple controversies.

A well-known actress, who had previously stepped back from the spotlight due to a series of controversies, is making her return to the entertainment industry after nearly two years.

The controversial star is none other than Seo Ye Ji, with previous reports having already hinted that her attempted return was near.

The actress paused her career after facing severe public backlash over several allegations, including claims that she manipulated her former partner, fabricated her academic background, and was involved in school violence. Despite her agency’s firm denial of the school violence accusations, public sentiment remained largely unchanged, and she withdrew from public view.

In an attempt to reclaim her career, Ye Ji made a return in 2022 through a role in a tvN drama. However, the drama did not perform well, and the actress received a lukewarm response from the audience. Adding to her challenges, her exclusive contract with her previous agency ended in November last year, leaving her future uncertain.

Earlier this year, the actress began signaling her return to the industry by resuming her activity on social media in May. By June, she announced that she had signed a new contract with a different agency, hinting at a fresh start and a renewed commitment to her career.
