honey u r sweet i like your good acting in Couple of Fantasy
August 16th, 2011 at 6:40 pm
The filming of KDs has always been hard work in demanding conditions. Stars much much bigger than you have to endure them. What makes you so special that you can walk off a production set and leave the co-stars, crew, viewers and TV station hanging?
To say that working conditions will change for the better after your walk-off is arrogance of the utmost degree. I despise that kind of lack of professionalism.

These are cute pictures. She shows sexiness but class. She’s a good actress too. I wish more American young actresses had these qualities.

I really really really love Han Ye Seul!!
Just finished watching Couple of Fantasy and men,, SHE IS REALLY GREAT!! <3!
love her accent in english! 😉
Will watch more of her movies and dramas! :))
January 29th, 2013 at 1:28 am
well, i think an actress is a human too,,,they works hard and have to be always look perfect in front of the fans…their lose their mind…
many director and producer like to push and “use” the actress, actors or singer to work more than other human being can afford…
but to leave the shooting its not a right act to do…
i support you always myong wol 😉 you are pretty and your english is perfect

Han Ye Seul, I miss you in KDrama so much. I can’t wait to see your new project, I’ll definitely watch it. Ignore all negative comments, they’re just bunch of ignorant people who think they know it all. Fighting!
May 19th, 2013 at 4:35 pm
not recognized u in Myung wol.. but in fantasy couple u’r great !!
June 14th, 2013 at 12:45 pm
what happened to han ye sul, after the incident in MWTS, she haven’t had any KDrama… lol.. maybe her attitude affected the casting of her …
September 13th, 2013 at 12:14 am
I guess the industry has shunned her as a result of the MWTS incident. A pity cos she’s a sweetie and one of South Korea’s beauties.
April 8th, 2014 at 7:05 am
Yea, it’s sad that her peers didn’t stand up and fight in her defence when those with the power in the industry obviously blacklisted her. It isn’t like the audience cares about all that, and it isn’t like insurance would not have covered the loss in production costs.
It’s abuse of power.
And it says something about the industry over there. If you piss-off a director, a manager or a Network suit, you can be blacklisted till you’ve lost your good looks. Such savagery!
One might infer from that all kinds awful things that’d befall a young actress trying to make it in her field. The stories about the couch in the director/producer’s office seem even more plausible.
August 27th, 2014 at 6:08 pm
She’s one of the amazing Korean actresses. I have been looking forward for her next drama however, there is none coming. She must have a valid reason why she walked out of the shoot. Perhaps the directors and scriptwriters have stood up against her. They should realize what they are losing…I am not Korean but I like watching Kdramas as I could easily relate with the story –light yet deep. This actress is my favourite. Too sad, it seems everyone has shunt her.
October 15th, 2014 at 9:10 pm
welcome back…. happy to see you unni. gud luck for the new drama.
October 24th, 2014 at 8:03 pm
She’s back!!!!!!! Oh yeah, she is. At least, one of the best looking and talented actresses is on the red carpet again:) GL to u!
November 24th, 2014 at 6:43 pm
Wow she looks so different in Birth of a Beauty drama, so much plastic surgery
December 31st, 2014 at 9:29 am
Seeing her pictures here, it’s no doubt that she’s had some plastic surgery–and not for the better. She looked better before surgery. Her smile now is so tight and unnatural. Still would love to see her in other dramas, but she has to increase her acting skills. They are not quite there.

Hi Han Ye Seul, great performance in Fantasy Couple. i love Na Sang Shil’s attitude the most. its just that whenever i’m watching that drama i felt really sad because of the thought that there is no way im gonna meet you in person… all I can do is pray that you and teddy will have a long lasting relationship…
