Nana has drawn criticism for her lip shape in the Korean drama The Scandal. The actress and K-Pop idol has issued an apology. Some viewers felt that Nana's plump lips, which they claimed were the result of fillers, did not fit her character, a widow who renounces worldly pleasures to live a pure life.
The actress later apologized through a fan communication platform. She acknowledged that her personal choices may not have been appropriate for her role as an actress. "If my lips made viewers uncomfortable, that's my fault.
I think the personal choice I made may not have been the right one for me as an actress," Nana said, as quoted by The Korea Times , Wednesday, September 23, 2026. She also admitted to feeling guilty that her fans had to deal with the negative comments directed at him.
She also promised to work harder in the future. "I think it must be painful for the fans who love me to see the harsh criticism directed at me. It makes me feel even more guilty. From now on, I will work hard so that we can hear good things together," she said.
The Scandal itself tells the story of a conflicted love triangle involving Mrs. Cho (Son Ye Jin), Cho Won (Ji Chang Wook), and Hee Yeon, a widow (Nana). This marked Nana's first appearance in a sageuk drama since her debut as an actress.
She appeared quite different from her glamorous and modern image, wearing traditional Korean clothing and sporting a simpler style. However, after the series aired, viewers expressed mixed opinions about Nana's appearance on social media.
Some felt that Nana's modern and elegant image didn't suit Hee Yeon's character. Nana's lips became a major focus of discussion. Some viewers felt that her lips were too prominent, distracting and making it difficult to immerse themselves in the historical drama.
