Seo Ye-ji has announced return to the entertainment industry after 7 months of controversy.

According to reports, her new tvN "chaebol" drama 'Eve's Scandal' began filming in earnest on the 21st with Seo Ye-ji scheduled to start filming on the 24th. 

'Eve's Scandal' is a romantic melodrama that deals with the story of a chaebol's 2 trillion won divorce lawsuit that turned Korea upside down. Seo Ye-ji will be filming alongside actors Lee Sang Yeop, Yoo Seon and Park Byung-eun. 

Seo Ye-ji will take on role of 'Lee Ra El', a female protagonist who was born to genius father and a beautiful mother, but turns into a character with fatal charm after going through an unfortunate past.

Seo Ye-ji gained popularity last year with the successful tvN drama 'Psycho But It's Okay' however, had to drop out of OCN drama 'Ireland' and announced hiatus after various controversies over alleged gaslighting, bullying, forgery of her academic background and 'gapjil [staff abuse].'

Despite the scandals, Seo Ye-ji showed off her power winning 'Popularity Award' at Baeksang Awards.

In June, two months after series of scandals and without any clarifications or apology, Seo Ye-ji shared a post on fancafe writing, "it must be great to have someone you trust" drawing attention. 

Meanwhile, there is growing interest whether her new drama will succeed despite her many scandals.

1. [+3,379, -62] Trash people like her need to be weeded out of the industry. With how trash her character is, it's only a matter of time until she pulls another 'gapjil' 
2. [+1,892, -13] It's more amazing that there are producers and writers still willing to cast her.
3. [+1,120, -6] Was it really necessary? When there are so many other actresses..?
4. [+886, -11] I don't want to see that trash anymore. Kick her out!
5. [+769, -10] I just don't understand broadcasters that continue to cast people like her
6. [+235, -3] The world is getting more and more scarier...she's a public figure but she lacks morals to this level and yet she's standing in front of the public like nothing happened. Just goes to show the kind of person she is..
7. [+167, -4] Not even the slightest courtesy or consideration for the viewers...is there really such a lack of actresses to replace her?
8. [+135, -1] Is tvN kidding right now??
9. [+118, -2] She never not once clarified any of her scandals but they still casted her? The producers behind this are more suspicious..
10. [+61, -11] Even Kim Seon-ho got kicked from his dramas until Dispatch clarified his scandal but she's crawling out without clarifying anything?? Is this a comedy?
