Some celebrities, may it be in Hollywood or Hallyu and get praised for their impressive performance, doing good deeds but others made headlines for having a bad attitude.
These four K-drama celebrities got involved in a controversy and were once criticized for being rude to fans, colleagues, production teams, and more.
Kim Seon Ho
Before Kim Seon Ho's scandal with his former girlfriend made headlines, the "Hometown Cha-Cha-Cha" star was engulfed in a rumor involving the director of the variety show "2 Days 1 Night."
It was during episode 66 of the show that the cast members had to experience wildlife and in order to survive, they had to set up tents and campfires by themselves.
For the first mission, the "2 Days 1 Night" cast did their best and was able to finish the task.
However, as the production team let the cast members leave the island, the PD mentioned that they have to build a canoe to depart from the island.

Unfortunately, viewers found it rude and criticized the star for his impolite gesture to the female PD.
However, some defended the actor claiming that the reason why he acted that way is because he is close to the director and it was his form of a joke.

The former child star turned sought-after leading lady harbors a clean and innocent image that often transcends her K-drama characters.
However, Kim Yoo Jung didn't escape the prying eyes of fans and media after she was accused of being rude to fans.
In 2016, the actress had to cancel her activities due to minor health issues. Unfortunately, an online post titled "Kim Yoo Jung's stage manners attitude" featured a clip where the actress reportedly showed disrespect to the crowd after she was seen leaning on one leg and looking at her nails.
At the time, netizens pointed out that it would be nice if she acted "a little more courteous" to fans who lined up to see her.
The actress' agency then issued an apology statement, saying that Kim Yoo Jung will "deeply reflect on her own attitude as a result of the controversy."
Kim Jung Hyun
In 2018, Kim Jung Hyun was at the press conference with co-star Seohyun for their K-drama "Time" where they both played lead stars.
However, the public noticed that he was emotionless as if he didn't want to appear at the event.
Due to this, fans accused him of being rude to his co-star but the actor defended that he was staying in character.
"Both on and off set, I'm trying to live my entire life like Cheon Soo Ho," he said, as obtained by an outlet, adding "No matter the situation, whether I'm sleeping, or in between activities in the car, I'm trying to keep the person named Kim Jung Hyun from coming out and making any decisions."
Apparently, this is in connection with his then-girlfriend Seo Ye Ji, who barred him from doing skinship with Seohyun.
Seo Ye Ji
Besides the gaslighting and manipulation issue with Kim Jung Hyun, Seo Ye Ji was also accused of abusing her staff.
Various reports noted an online post from anonymous staff claiming that the actress "verbally abused" them and would be asked to buy cigarettes for her.
