This is the explanation from her company
In the show, the MC asks her, "What did you study in Spain?". To which Seo Yeji replies, "After I took my SAT and prepared to enroll in university, I was really fascinated by the Spanish language. The way they talk is very passionate. Most Spain people have a very low voice, which is very similar to mine. I started to gain interest and begged my parents so I could leave for Spain without any plans". The MC continues to ask her, "You went to a university there? A Spain university? Alone?". Seo Yeji nods and responds, "Yeah".
Regarding this matter, her company has released a statement saying, "She was starring in a variety program which she feels unfamiliar in. She was nervous and made mistake as she received unexpected questions. However, she tried to make it up in the following interviews"
In October the same year, she was interviewed by a media, in which she says, "I don't know why people are so obsessed with my past. There are people saying that I studied abroad in Spain to become an announcer, and some other people say I graduated from a university in Spain. It is true that I studied abroad, but I didn't enroll in a university, I never even dreamed of being an announcer. I have never said anything like that"
They said she made a mistake because she was nervous
But if you take a look at the episode she guested in
Yeji: 'It was during a term break, I was sleeping'
Term break?
Okay, let's conclude that she attended a language institute and it was a term break
'You went and lived abroad in Spain for 3 years'
She kept responding 'Yeah' to these statements
'You look like you were quite famous in Spain?'
And then she carried out the conversation naturally
Does that mean Kang Hodong guessed '3 years' and happened to be true?ㅋㅋ
She attended a language institute for 3 years?
It's either her company gave materials to the script-writers beforehand or the script-writer looked it up on Internet themselves
She looked and sounded just fine as she responded to each question, she didn't look nervous at all.
Her company makes it look like she only responded to one question because she was too nervous

-It's all just lies...ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ
-Anyone can tell that she wasn't feeling nervous at all...ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ
-Yeah, that bikini story totally sounded like a lieㅠㅠ
-They should've just accepted that she was telling lies and apologized for it...
-So what if she didn't attend a university in Spain?ㅋㅋ She's an actress, all that matters is whether she does her job or not. You guys are totally bringing her down just because she lied a little bit. It looks like you guys never lie, not even once, in your whole life?
ㄴYeji-ya, just go to sleep...
-I think it would've been better if they admitted she lied and just apologize for it...
-They're trying to cover up lies with other lies, that's how it becomes this big...ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ
-It was very immature of her. I knew it sounded strange since the moment she said she decided to study abroad in Spain because she loved how the language sounds like...
-Does that mean she actually lived in Spain before...? I can't trust her anymore now...ㅋㅋㅋ
-Telling lies seems to become her daily routine...
-She seems to not know when to stop telling lies. She tries to cover up the lies she told previously by telling another lie. It's not worth it.
-Why the heck would she lie about that...
-What is this...? So, gaslighting her ex is not her only problem...
