Han So Hee Continues to Lose Advertisement Deals

Han So Hee has reportedly lost another advertisement contract following the previous controversies surrounding the actress.

After the South Korean actress faced public disapproval due to her relationship, the "My Name" star's contract deals with brands continue to drop.

In a report, the second hand car platform Hey Dealer just introduced Bae Suzy and Lee Jung Eun as the new endorsers.

As for Han So Hee, she had been with Hey Dealer since 2023 and appeared in a vlog-style advertising video where the actress garnered positive feedback from the public.

Unfortunately, this was not the first time that a brand didn't renew the actress for a deal.

Back in March, two companies decided not to renew their contract with the "Nevertheless" star.

Beverage company Lotte Chilsung and Korea's Nonghyup Bank have terminated their advertising deals with Han So Hee amid the controversy surrounding the actress' relationship with Ryu Jun Yeol.

At the time, an official from Lotte confirmed that the company's contract with the actress ended due to other reasons.

"Our contract with Han ended at the beginning of this month, which was before her romance scandal broke out."

On the other hand, a PR industry official explained why a celebrity's image is crucial in brand deals.

"A celebrity's involvement in a public scandal can indeed raise concerns, particularly when they serve as an advertising model.

Hiring a celebrity embroiled in a scandal can lead to rumors and bad publicity for the companies that employ them."

Meanwhile, Han So Hee broke her silence and confirmed her relationship with the "Reply 1988" star.
