The local press event for the upcoming tvN television series “Eve” was canceled and the airing of the series has been delayed for a week.

According to staff Friday, the shooting schedule of the series starring actor Seo Yea-ji has fallen behind. The series will begin airing on June 1.

Within the local broadcasting industry, it is considered standard for the cast and directors to promote their series before it starts airing.

The public has yet to see Seo in person since she was embroiled in controversy last April, when she was accused of being abusive in her previous relationship with actor Kim Jung-hyun in 2018. After claims of her manipulative behavior gained online traction, Seo has kept a low profile.

Before her return to the small screen in "Eve," the actor released an apology in February regarding her past behavior, saying that she has “taken some time off to reflect” and promised to be “more mindful and mature” in the future.

In the series, Seo will portray Lee Ra-el, who seduces the CEO of a powerful conglomerate, Kang Yoon-kyum (played by Park Byung-eun), causing him to go through a divorce costing 2 trillion won ($1.7 billion). This is all part of a revenge plan she has been working on for the past 13 years to get payback for her father’s death.
