Actress Han Ye Ri is standing by her red carpet look after being named one of the “worst dressed” stars at the 62nd Baeksang Arts Awards.
On May 8, 2026 (KST), Han Ye Ri attended the prestigious award ceremony in a white dress with bold floral detailing. While some praised the look for being unique, others were less convinced, and the styling quickly became a hot topic online.
In particular, some netizens compared the dress’s chest detail to a “fried egg.” Posts naming Han Ye Ri as one of Baeksang’s “worst dressed” stars also began circulating across online communities and social media.

Rather than remain silent, Han Ye Ri responded directly on her personal social media account on May 15, making it clear that she had no regrets.
No matter what anyone says, my dress was the prettiest. I simply wore the dress I wanted to wear.
— Han Ye Ri
She continued by explaining that her current hairstyle also played a role in the overall styling, while defending the staff who worked on the event with her. “My staff did their very best, working with my currently very short hair,” she wrote.
Han Ye Ri then emphasized that red carpet fashion does not always have to be predictable or “safe.”
Just because it’s an awards ceremony doesn’t mean it has to be safe every time. I was beautiful enough that day!
— Han Ye Ri
Her response has since gained attention from netizens, many of whom praised her confidence. Comments included, “If it looks best to you, that’s all that matters,” “Who said anything? It suits you perfectly,” “It’s pretty,” “The design is pretty,” “I was surprised because it was new,” and “You were beautiful.”
