In a candid revelation, popular South Korean actress Go Joon Hee has shared a disturbing experience with a toxic co-star, shedding light on the hidden 'workplace villains' within the entertainment industry. The actress, renowned for her roles in hit dramas like 'She Was Pretty' and 'The Slave Hunters', detailed how she was unfairly targeted and blamed for on-set mistakes.
Go Joon Hee's Shocking Allegations Against a Co-Star
During a recent appearance on the show 'Gangnam Unnie', Go Joon Hee discussed the concept of workplace villains. She recounted a specific incident from a past project where a fellow actress consistently refused to admit her own errors. "She made it seem like I was the one who messed up," Joon Hee revealed, expressing her frustration.
The veteran actress explained that this co-star would frequently criticise her pronunciation and other aspects during filming retakes, even when the fault lay elsewhere. This pattern of behaviour created a hostile and unjust working environment, where Joon Hee was made the scapegoat for professional mishaps.
A Confrontation That Led Nowhere
Go Joon Hee further shared that she attempted to address the issue directly. At the project's wrap-up party, she confronted the co-star about her behaviour. However, the attempt at resolution failed. The individual in question deflected the conversation, shifted to vague topics, and ultimately did not accept any responsibility for her actions.
The actress also disclosed that she was not the only victim. Other actors who worked with the same co-star received similar negative comments, which left them deeply unsettled. "Some of the actors who heard such comments were so flustered, they started thinking, 'Am I really bad at acting?'" Joon Hee stated, highlighting the damaging impact of such toxicity on an artist's confidence.
