Korean Actress Han So Hee Called Rude For Shouting “Please Keep Quiet!” At Event Crowd

Is South Korean actress Han So Hee okay?

A video of the 29-year-old star at an event hosted by jewelry brand Boucheron at Paris Fashion Week has netizens thinking otherwise.

In the clip, So Hee was preparing to have her photos snapped by a photographer as the crowd surrounding her got increasingly rowdy.

So Hee was visibly annoyed by the noise and she shouted, “Please be quiet!” to someone out of frame and then giving them the mother of all side-eyes.

So Hee then went back to posing for her photo.

Netizens were pretty confused by what happened, with many quipping that she “looked drunk”.

So Hee was also criticised for being rude.

In response to the backlash, So Hee’s agency 9ATO Entertainment told the media that there has been a misunderstanding.

“The video only shows a single moment within the whole context,” they said. “[So Hee] was not shouting at a specific person. The event was getting overcrowded and even the staff on-site thought that it was a matter of concern and were cautiously taking the appropriate measures.”

The agency also explained that the other staff at the event were also shushing people as the room was getting too loud.

“Han So Hee only said ‘Please be quiet!’ after the efforts to communicate [to the crowd] went unheard,” the agency asserted, emphasising that the party “ended on a good note”.
