The "Sunflower" members were seen greeting the audience during a special stage event and sharing their excitement for their long-awaited reunion. The video drew attention as Yi Jae made his comeback after claiming to retire from the entertainment industry.
Reappearing in front of the camera after a long time, Yi Jae's facial changes are almost unrecognizable. He even made Hae Sook confirm repeatedly by saying, "Is that you, Yi Jae? Oh my gosh, Yi Jae. I almost didn't recognize you."
It is known that Yi Jae is famous for her roles in films such as "Sunflower" & "A Dirty Carnival" and dramas such as "Prince Hours" & "Single Dad in Love". In 2011, the actress married Lee Seung Woo , a singer-turned-entrepreneur who is 7 years her senior.
After getting married, Yi Jae temporarily stopped her acting career. She and her husband were finally blessed with two sons. However, Yi Jae's household could not be saved and they announced their divorce after five years of marriage.
After his divorce, Yi Jae briefly returned to acting with projects such as the film "Woo-joo's Christmas" and the SBS drama "You Are a Gift". However, he did not continue his career after that, leaving fans curious about his whereabouts. In 2021, Yi Jae appeared on the YouTube channel “WayLand.
He made a splash by sharing, “The reason I decided to retire is because of a married actor who is now living happily.” He revealed that the actor was a senior in one of his past projects and had verbally and emotionally abused him, even demanding a one-night stand. As speculation about the actor's identity grew, Yi Jae finally clarified.
"I did not make this comment to target or attack anyone, so I ask that you do not hunt down the witch. I have personally contacted the actor who was falsely accused and apologized. This will be the last time I mention or discuss anything related to that person," he said.
Meanwhile, the film "Sunflower", starring Yi Jae, tells the story of Oh Tae Sik, a man who lives in the shadows without ever having a dream. He finds hope when he embraces the concept of family for the first time. The film attracted 1.3 million viewers when it was released in 2006.
