That’s what Korean netizens are trying to figure out. According to her profile, Lee Jia studied design at Pasadena Art Center before she went over to Korea to film her first drama, “The Legend” but that was never been confirmed, which made many to question the authenticity of her profile.
This is not the first time Lee Jia received fair amount of skepticism due to ambiguous information on her profile and again, the newbie actress is not even blinking an eye. The composed actress responded by saying, “you’ll know with time. I’m not in a hurry to reveal more about myself than necessary.”
I know that this is part of her “image making” but shouidn’t a new comer actress be at least honest with her profile? Shady shady, just like her managerment company CEO, Bae Yong Joon.

whether she graduated or not she isn’t talentless. Christina Aguilera didn’t even finish High School.
netizens hunt her more than media = a sign of fear for $$BYJ$$?
she does not give a damn! ROFL…
netizens got owned big time!
her management company does not really reveal much of their stars. i think they don’t want much publicity on their talents and wants to keep their privacy ‘private’ didn’t you notice that they don’t even much have interviews or media exposure? that’s i think is their style and it works well. because fans clamor for them and media tends to get excited about them when they have new projects. just check so ji sub, lee na young and choi kang hee. these are the artists that belong to BOF. but take note also that if they do have projects, they have lots of photos and interviews.
I dont think any of that stuff matters. As long as they do their job well then who cares? Actor = act well, Singer = sing your heart out. The onlytime I ever care about someones scandalous past is if they are talentless and only got where they are cuz of stupid reasons (I.E Sohee, WTF?)
only thing I would freak out about is if BYJ is a woman and she is actually a man now that is an eye brow raiser. People should not be classified by their education. I work in the healthcare field and wonder hmmmmmm, did you find your MD license in a cereal box , or was there a raffle going on at Harvard and you won .
People would care less if she was more upfront about it.
SunYe didn’t even get into uni, did she. People still like her. Including me.
Wow why are people bringing up WG on totally un-related post?
Sunye didn’t get into her first choice, which apparently is the school she really wants considering she re-applied for it instead of just picking another school.
Now answer this, WTF does this actress have to do with WG?
LOL jesus christ. morons.
This chick is ugly as hell.
^LMAO
She does look like a man doesn’t she.
AHHHH IT’S A TRANNY MONSTER.
BURN IT!
She looks like an ugly chinese broad.
No way she can be korean and be this ugly, korean girls are the prettiest asian girls in the world.
^
@ EWCHINK
Have you ever been to Korea? Have you ever been to China? You do realize that all the Korean girls on TV were picked specifically for their looks, right?
Go to any country and you’ll find out that the attractive to normal ratio is pretty consistent around the world.
Korean girls are prettier, I have been to Korea more than 20 times fool. Korean girls are the BEST looking asian girls.
chinese girls look like ugly rat faced skanks, even their celebs are ugly and try to copy Koreans LMAO japanese and chinese girls envy korean girls.
This blog is for your info, not to trash people. Please respect yourself by using kind words.
she’s kinda pretty…
but for some reason when you stare at her for a long time she tends to look like a guy… kinda looks like he had one to many surgeries too…
Wow, wth is with all the hate on this particular article lmao.
Im so confused. I think she looks pretty.. can someone help explain?
The issue here isn’t where she graduated from college or not but whether she’s deceiving people or not.
is not flattering. i loved her in the legend, she has such a clean beauty and unlike some well-loved korean actresses, she was not over-acting.
deceit is something very common in k-entertainment. lies about height and weight are ordinary, most glaring however are lies about talent. lol
to all those girls who think she is ugly, please send a link to your personal page…example myspace, facebook. and for the guy out there please send a link to your gf page. we need to do a comparison. remember you can lie to us but not to yourself.
i never seen or heard of her before
it doesn’t take a vagina to see how fugly this man is.
she does look like a damn tranny.
Again ? Korea’s media is too bored perhaps.
If I had a decent career, decent pays, and I eat well, live well, I wouldn’t spent all those money on tuition just to have a paper says that you’re graduated from college.
College’s degree is not everything. Steven Jobs dropped out of college, and someone said it above Christina Aguilera didn’t even finish high school.
WHAT A BIG FAT LIAR~ IS SHE RETARDED? DOESN’T SHE KNOW KOREAN NETIZENS CAN UNEARTH JUST ABOUT ANYTHING???
her profile states that she studied not graduated, so it’s not really lying…
Who in the heck cares?????? It’s entertainment, people! As long as she’s doing her job, I don’t see why it matters. It’s not like she’s holding a friggin’ civil servant or something!
Geez!
Geez wth. Just because she has an adrogynous fae doesn’t mean that Lee Jia is ugly. I happen to think that she has one of the “cleanest” faces in the industry.
Who cares if she hasn’t graduated, this girl has inscrutable artistic talents. Check out her homepage she created for her fans. She designed it.
It’s not about an artist finish high school or have a college/university degree. The uproar here is obviously about whether or not Lee Jia deceive people about her education background.
It’s wrong if a person tells untruth facts of themselves. That’s lying.
okay u know what, the reporter who called the Art Center asked if there were any students named LEE during specific years, and the person on the other line said THERE WERENT ANY.
dOES THAT MAKE ANY SENSE?
How can there be NO LEES at an art college?
I know like 5 people right now who are at art center with the last name lee…
The person the phone probably said that not to reveal any confidential information and the korean reporters just butchered it up.
so freaking ridiculous
I have seen her act in The Four Gods with Bae Yong Joon and she is pretty good folks! she could have an award! she got the looks and does it matter whether she finish University or not? the main thing is whether the person keep gaining knowledge which could be done by reading, travelling, talking to professionals and improving one’s self.
She is pretty, young, talented and got charisma!
lmao BYJ isnt the CEO
check your infos :3
Ever since Beethoven VIrus, i’ve always thought she is kinda ugly.
and sort of chubby too…and the stuff she wore in the drama didn’t help much either.
