Considering their controversial statuses in Korea, the article asks industry reps in China how the three are viewed in China.
One Chinese media outlet journalist said, "Yoon Eun Hye and Song Hye Gyo have been in dramas that were popular in China so they are quite famous. Compared to them, Jessica falls behind in terms of public recognition." Regarding Yoon Eun Hye's plagiarism controversy, "It wasn't in the news much in China and people didn't take an interest in it. We, too, thought her agency's response was ridiculous. Her fans on SNS are half in doubt as well but Chinese fans aren't that aware of Korean sentiment so they believe what they see."
A rookie Chinese director said about the three, "I don't know who any of them are." Another movie industry rep said, "Song Hye Gyo is beautiful. To the Chinese, she has a look that they consider beautiful. As for Yoon Eun Hye, she may be popular through 'Goong' but we haven't heard good talks about her because of her plagiarism controversy. As for Jessica, I don't think she is that popular in China."
Another journalist said, "The Chinese movie industry changes quickly. It's no longer a generation where a huge piece of work is born or a huge star is emerging. Song Hye Gyo's movie did not fare that well, she doesn't have the influence she did in the past. Same for Yoon Eun Hye. I have read articles about her though but it wasn't that controversial because she isn't that big of a figure."
When asked who they considered to have influence in China, they listed, "EXO, Kim Soo Hyun, Lee Jong Suk, and Park Shin Hye."

1. [+2,860, -358] The three are definitely disliked in Korea. I see the three of them and just see all this greed, like they'll do anything for money without thinking. They need mentors.
2. [+2,419, -227] I don't know how they're viewed in the Chinese media but they're pretty much over in the Korean media
3. [+2,228, -561] Add Loli-U to that list
4. [+1,571, -85] So Yoon Eun Hye and Jessica aren't even that popular in China but were media playing as if they were ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ
5. [+590, -46] Summarized: The real top stars in China are Kim Soo Hyun, Jun Ji Hyun, Lee Jong Suk, Park Shin Hye... all of whom are humbly promoting in Korea still. It's the ones without any status in China who think they can get away with putting down the Korean public.
6. [+443, -38] My friend lives in China and she said so herself that the real popular stars are Kim Soo Hyun, Lee Min Ho, Big Bang, EXO, Soshi, and Victoria. Jessica and Yoon Eun Hye aren't that popular.
7. [+451, -153] I still don't think Song Hye Gyo's status has dropped to the point where she's included in lists like this..
8. [+317, -28] Kim Soo Hyun and Jun Ji Hyun are working in China because China wants them... Song Hye Gyo and Yoon Eun Hye are in China because Korea doesn't want them anymore.
