Actress Seo Ye-ji is set to make her screen comeback after five years, overcoming controversies surrounding her private life, while continuing to boast a stunning appearance.
Recently, Seo posted everyday photos on her personal account. In the revealed images, Seo is wearing headphones and gazing into the distance. Her small face, large eyes, and veil-like nose bridge capture attention. Seo remains beautiful as ever.
Previously, Seo's agency, BeWave Entertainment, announced that she would return to the screen after five years with the film "Geumwol Island."
"Geumwol Island" is a work inspired by actual records of cannibalism left in the Annals of the Joseon Dynasty. Set against the backdrop of a remote island and a closed community in Korea, it features a new genre attempt described as a "Korean-style vampire." The film is directed by Baek Dong-hoon, who helmed "The Chef: Kimchi War." Seo plays the role of Kim Ji-hoo, who defies her fate. She is expected to heighten the immersion of the drama by unraveling mysterious incidents unfolding on Geumwol Island, a remote island she reaches after receiving a message from her mother.
News of Seo's screen comeback marks approximately five years since "Memory of Tomorrow," which was released in April 2021. Seo faced various controversies, starting with allegations that she gaslit her ex-boyfriend, actor Kim Jung-hyun, followed by issues such as school bullying and academic fraud, leading to ups and downs in her activities. She took a break from work for a period after the tvN drama "Eve," which aired in 2022. Seo began her comeback with her first fan meeting at the end of 2024, followed by an appearance on the Coupang Play variety show "SNL Korea" in April 2025, and recently challenged herself to her first stage performance through the play "Praise of Death."
