Controversy Looms Over Han So Hee’s Alleged Age Falsification
On October 31, the South Korean entertainment scene became embroiled in controversy regarding actress Han So Hee, following revelations about her birth year. Reports surfaced that she was born in 1993, contrary to the previously stated 1994. Han’s management company clarified that the discrepancy was unintentional. Due to family circumstances, she took a year off from school, ultimately graduating with the 1994 class.
Additional Allegations Following Age Controversy
In a new twist, critics have discovered further allegations concerning Han So Hee’s honesty. In 2021, the actress appeared in the Netflix series My Name, co-starring with Ahn Bo Hyun. During an interview, Han mentioned that she only became aware of an intimate scene while on set. She stated, “I discovered there was a bed scene while we were shooting. At first, I wondered if this was okay. I questioned whether it would hinder Ji Woo’s revenge goals…”Han explained that the scene represented a pivotal moment for her character, Ji Woo, depicting her emotional vulnerability rather than romantic affection.
Backlash Against the Film Crew
Her comments ignited a storm of criticism directed at the film’s crew and director. Many netizens have accused the director of having manipulated Han So Hee into participating in the controversial scene. The backlash was significant enough that her agency, 9Ato Entertainment, felt prompted to issue a statement clarifying the situation.
Clarifications and Misunderstandings
The management’s clarification indicated that Han So Hee’s phrase, “I discovered this while we were shooting,” led to considerable misunderstandings. The intimate scene was, in fact, discussed during pre-production. Though the script was unfinished at that time, both Han and the production team agreed to film it based on Ji Woo’s emotional trajectory, with the specific filming date to be confirmed later. Detailed conversations took place among the director, screenwriter, and the actress regarding the portrayal of the scene. Thus, while Han So Hee was aware of the bed scene, she did not know when it would be filmed, resulting in her misleading comments.
Public Reaction and Loss of Trust
The resurfacing of this controversy, alongside the age falsification issue, has severely impacted public trust in Han So Hee. Numerous netizens expressed their skepticism, sharing sentiments like:
- “I’m starting to doubt anything Han So Hee says from now on.”
- “Maybe her story about studying abroad in France is also a lie.”
- “It seems like she lies every time she opens her mouth.”
- “Why are you like this? Do you enjoy making others suffer?”
- “I didn’t know about the company’s clarification, so I still think that director is trash.”
The trust erosion is palpable, as audiences grapple with the implications of these unfolding narratives involving Han So Hee.
