Seo Ye Ji and Kim Jung Hyun have been swept up in an attitude and skinship controversy after alleged text messages between the two have been revealed by Dispatch. According to the news agency, the two actors were previously in a romantic relationship after working together on Stay With Me back in early 2018. Later that year, Kim Jung Hyun began working on a new drama called The Time. He worked alongside Girls’ Generation member Seohyun, but his hostile attitude towards her during their production made its way into the spotlight due to his cold behaviors.

According to Dispatch and the alleged text messages, it was revealed that Kim Jung Hyun acted cold towards Seohyun at the request of Seo Ye Ji. She demanded that he edit scenes with any physical touch and that he act sternly towards to not only Seohyun, but all the female staff on set. Seo Ye Ji allegedly texted Kim Jung Hyun to “edit it so there’s no romance. No skinship, no romance.” Due to this, Kim Jung Hyun has been photographed looking cold and uninterested numerous times, causing backlash for the actor.
During this same time period, however, Seo Ye Ji was filming for her own drama and her skinship scenes in the series are making their way into headlines due to the hypocrisy.

Seo Ye Ji filmed for her tvN drama, Lawless Lawyer in 2018, which was the same year as Kim Jung Hyun’s The Time. However, while the actress asked for her then boyfriend to omit all skinship scenes, Seo Ye Ji filmed all of her intimate scenes as scripted. There were numerous scenes of the actress being embraced in bed by her male lead counterpart, Lee Joon Ki. They also shared deep kisses and continual touch throughout the duration of the series.

If the Dispatch reports are true, this would mean that while Seo Ye Ji opposed Kim Jung Hyun’s skinship and interactions with other women, the actress had no problem with it when it came to herself.
