Seo Ye Ji was acquitted by a South Korean Court in an alleged bullying and gaslighting case
In 2021, actress Seo Ye Ji encountered a string of controversies involving her past relationship with Kim Jung Hyun and allegations of involvement in school violence. Amidst these issues, a brand previously associated with Seo Ye Ji for endorsing their nutritional supplements took legal action after the scandals surfaced.
The brand, having initiated a contract with Seo Ye Ji to be their model and spokesperson, paid her agency a substantial fee of 450 million KRW (around 347,670 USD) for her services in mid-2020. However, following the controversies that tarnished her public image, the brand moved to terminate the contract, citing clauses that demanded ad models avoid actions detrimental to their public reputation.
In response, the brand filed a lawsuit against Seo Ye Ji and her agency, alleging a breach of contract and seeking compensation totaling 1.275 billion KRW (approximately 983,030 USD) in penalties. However, on November 16, the Seoul Central District Court acquitted the actress of the charges. Nevertheless, the court-mandated Seo Ye Ji's agency, GOLDMEDALIST, to reimburse the brand sponsor with an amount of KRW 225 million (approximately USD 172,000). This legal verdict brought a conclusion to this aspect of the controversy, though the public scrutiny around Seo Ye Ji's past actions continued to impact her career and public perception.
