On August 16th, Han Ye Seul's agency,�sidusHQ, released an official explanation regarding the actress' refusal to appear on set for her KBS drama, 'Spy Myung Wol', in addition to her sudden departure for Los Angeles. They stated, "Before we begin, we would like to deeply bow our heads in apology for having to greet everyone in this unsavory situation. Both Han Ye Seul and sidusHQ are feeling a great sense of responsibility over this controversy." "At the time, Han Ye Seul was in an extremely exhausted condition, both mentally and physically, from the busy shooting schedule.�After being forced to continue filming in this state, her judgment became clouded and as a result, she's caused harm to many people.�We are truly apologetic for this." With regards to Han Ye Seul's return to the drama set, sidusHQ stated, "We will do our very best to get her to return as quickly as possible and complete filming for the drama. Once again, we would like to deeply bow our heads and ask for your apology." Meanwhile, KBS's Lee Kang Hyun EP made an official statement on behalf of the broadcasting company during a press conference on the same day. He said,�"We have not yet received any news that Han Ye Seul will be returning to the drama from America. Since Han Ye Seul is part of the original cast, there is no reason for us to reject her return." Lee continued, "However, until we see Han Ye Seul on the set, her return is not certain; thus for the time being, we went ahead and quickly appointed an alternate actress. Even if Han Ye Seul returns, what comes first is that she officially apologizes to her colleagues and drama staff, and promises that a relapse will not occur. Accepting her return will be heavily determined by whether or not next week's scheduled shootings for episodes 12 and 13 can still be carried on as planned without any disruptions."
