Lee Da Hae apologized to Filipino fans after an episode of the variety show Sweet Night emerged on YouTube in which the actress appeared to imitate her idea of a Filipino English instructor’s accent. The video has angered some Filipinos, who called Lee‘s performance racist.

She also implied that since her conversation was meant to be light-hearted, viewers should not have taken offense. You can see the offending clip here.
