Not every K-drama story ends when filming stops. For some actors, the roles followed them home—turning into nightmares, trauma, and consequences that lasted far beyond the screen.
In this video, we uncover how certain K-drama characters went far beyond acting—leaving scars that haunted the stars long after the cameras stopped rolling. From Jung Hae-in’s haunting journey in D.P. and Heo Sung-tae’s struggles after Squid Game, to Shin Ye-eun’s nightmares following The Glory, these stories reveal the hidden cost of fame.
We also revisit other cases—Choi Min-sik, Lee Dong-wook, Seo Ye-ji, and Kim Jae-wook—actors who admitted that disturbing roles blurred the line between fiction and reality. And in one of the most tragic stories of all, we examine how Kim Soo-hyun’s movie Real left a lasting impact on Sulli, fueling controversy and heartbreak that still sparks discussion years later.
These aren’t just roles. They’re reminders of how dangerous it can be when reality and acting collide.
