• 4 Female Stars Who Rebuilt Their Careers Following Serious Scandals

    Unfortunately, because they were embroiled in a scandal, these Korean celebrities struggled to find a way to hide.

    For a long time, these celebrities avoided attending events and rarely posted on social media. As a result, their return always draws a lot of attention.

    Several of them made a strong impression in it due to their spectacular comeback.

    Song Jia

    Although she is not a Korean idol, Song Jia (also known as FreeZia) is a well-known and popular figure. Her recent return continues to garner attention, despite the numerous criticisms she has received for allegedly using counterfeit goods.

    In May of last year, Song Jia volunteered again. In June, Song Jia's series of "comeback" photos received numerous compliments from netizens. After the event, it is widely known that the famous model and YouTuber has lost quite a bit of weight.

    The 26-year-old woman stands out for her lean, toned abdominal muscles and lack of excess fat. In addition, the facial contours are becoming increasingly elegant and harmonious.

    Before Song Jia's luxurious style and error-correcting personality, people "turned the car" immediately.

    IU

    IU, also known as the "national little sister," has a large fan base both inside and outside of South Korea.

    Her career has experienced many ups and downs after many years in the industry, despite being extremely successful. The release of the album containing track number 23 is regarded as one of IU's biggest scandals.

    In particular, in 2015, people noticed the similarities between the songs 23 and Gimme More by Britney Spears.

    IU received "stones" from the audience despite the fact that she played only the role of lyricist and did not participate in the production. Later, she issued a public apology.

    Seo Ye Ji

    After starring as the female lead in "It's Okay Not to Be Okay," Seo Ye Ji became a well-liked public figure.

    However, when she was at the height of her fame, she faced a number of controversies. Then she chooses to remain hidden for a moment.

    After a year of silence, Seo Ye Ji officially announced her return with the female lead role in the new drama "Eve."

    Seo Ye Ji did not reclaim her position until after the first episodes aired. Her visuals have significantly improved, and her acting has left a lasting impression on the audience.

    Red Velvet's Irene

    Irene also had difficulty due to a string of "unfortunate" scandals. On October 22, 2020, Irene was accused of being rude and disrespectful.

    The public was then made aware of the controversies surrounding Red Velvet's eldest sister. After only a few hours, Irene expressed her regret.

    Despite receiving severe criticism, Irene's reputation was quickly restored. In her recent comeback with the song "Feel My Rhythm," the female idol's magnificent and regal appearance caused a frenzy. Red Velvet's monumental comeback aids in the gradual forgetting of past controversy.

    Experiencing a difficult time because of the scandal, Korean beauties have successfully revived their careers. In a tight time, they gradually improve themselves from appearance and personality.

  • Choi Si Hoon dragged into queer dating show drama—netizens claim he’s the shady CEO, fans beg Ailee to check

    Choi Si Hoon, known from Single’s Inferno and newlywed husband of singer Ailee, is facing backlash after being linked to a controversy from Wavve’s queer reality show ToGetHer.

    Fans discovered that Choi is allegedly the CEO of the influencer agency representing Ri Won, a cast member now at the center of a growing scandal.

    The situation started when castmate Han Gyeol spoke up, claiming Ri Won once suggested an overseas trip that felt more like a shady meeting than a casual hangout.

    “I thought it was a fun vacation invite at first,” Han Gyeol said, “but when they started talking about meals and date-like things, I realized something was wrong. It felt like an inappropriate setup.”
    Han Gyeol added, “Using someone’s sexuality as a shield for suspicious actions is not okay in this industry.”

    Ri Won responded by saying it was all a misunderstanding and that the trip was mentioned casually during a conversation about food. “We joked about going to that country after talking about food,” Ri Won said.

    However, things got more intense when Ri Won admitted to having a past as a 'beotbang' (adult streaming) BJ. “I know I’m not trustworthy right now, and I appeared on TV while hiding my past. That’s why I shared some proof—I was desperate,” Ri Won explained.

    Ri Won also shared a blurred message from another cast member that accused them of fake dating and lying about knowing someone from Billboard. “You said you’d introduce me to a Billboard contact. Then give me their name and title,” the message read. “You just keep switching your targets.”

    Ri Won replied, “He’s the team leader at Billboard Korea and also my influencer agency CEO.”
    This comment led online users to dig deeper—and some claimed the CEO Ri Won mentioned is none other than Choi Si Hoon, Ailee’s husband.

    Currently on his honeymoon with Ailee, Choi is now getting unwanted attention. Some netizens brought up his alleged past as an adult BJ and now, his possible involvement in this controversy.

    On Ailee’s Instagram post from April 30, one fan wrote, “Unnie, sorry to bother you during your honeymoon, but please search Choi Si Hoon’s name. A female BJ said she’s signed to his company, and he supposedly arranged a meeting for her with a just-turned 19-year-old girl.”

    As the issue grew, Ri Won spoke out again on May 1 to calm things down. “The person I mentioned in the messages was just someone who gave me advice,” Ri Won clarified. “He’s not my agency CEO, like some people assumed. I thought he could help with music, but he never made any business offer.”

    Ri Won ended by saying, “I’m sorry for causing any confusion and discomfort to others with my personal remarks.”

    So far, Choi Si Hoon and Ailee have not made public statements about the situation.
