Actress Jeon Jong Seo's appearance on "SNK Korea" garnered widespread interest due to her bold performance as a guest star on the show. However, rumors of school bullying have overshadowed her acting prowess and cast a shadow over her professional trajectory.
Despite receiving acclaim for her acting skills, talks about previous accusations of bullying in school have emerged once again in discussions surrounding her performance.

Back in April, allegations surfaced on an online forum suggesting that Jeon had engaged in acts of school violence during her time in school.
The accuser alleged that Jeon would forcefully take or steal gym uniforms from her peers and verbally harass those who resisted complying with her demands.
During that period, Jeon's management company refuted the claims and revealed intentions to pursue legal recourse.
Jeon personally discussed the matter at a press conference for the show Queen Woo, saying,
"The allegations are false and even if they were true I wouldn't be standing here sharing my art with everyone."
Jeon Jongseo was embroiled in a school violence controversy before the release of Queen Woo. Her side denied this.

This has sparked rumors that maybe a private agreement was reached instead? People in the industry think that if there had been a transparent and firm reaction from Jeon's side earlier, it might have helped to clear up any doubts or negative associations sticking around.
