Management company Hook Entertainment said: "In February 2023, Park Min Young was questioned by the prosecution as a witness regarding Mr. Kang Jong Hyun's use of the actress's account under a borrowed name. Through this, we have clearly stated that Park Min Young did not participate in any illegal activities, nor did she gain any illegal profits.

The 250 million won was used by Mr. Kang from Park Min Young's account and was not used for the actress's living expenses. She has been misunderstood for over a year but has accepted criticism and expressed regret.

Park Min Young is putting more effort into her career because she believes that showing good acting through good works is the only thing I can and should do as an actress."

Previously, the news site Dispatch reported that in September 2022, Park Min Young announced her breakup with businessman Kang Jong Hyun, who was arrested for embezzlement. They announced their breakup and admitted that they had dated. The actress' reason was: "I didn't know he was that kind of person."

At that time, Park Min Young denied receiving financial support from her boyfriend including money, cars, and luxury goods. "I have never received financial support."

However, Dispatch confirmed that Park Min Young received 250 million won in alimony while dating Kang Jong Hyun. The company money from Kang Jong Hyun's branches was deposited into the actress's personal account through a 3-step process.

Kang Jong Hyun withdrew money from the affiliated company as a loan and paid his "mistress" as "living expenses". This is completely contrary to the actress' previous statement.

Prosecutors indicted Kang Jong Hyun last year, charging: "He embezzled company funds to buy stocks, bonds and virtual currencies. He also decided to use company funds for personal purposes, such as purchasing luxury goods."

According to Dispatch, the actress's ex-boyfriend embezzled more than 60 billion won. So, if some of that money was spent on Park Min Young, she would be hard-pressed to avoid moral criticism.

Park Min Young was even investigated by the prosecution in February last year. Traces of name-borrowing transactions were discovered during the participation in convertible bonds of Kang Jong Hyun's affiliates. Hook Entertainment explained that it was "just a reference," but the suspicion of illegal profits has not been resolved.

Kang Jong Hyun was released on bail on December 12 last year. According to the source, Park Min Young's rumored boyfriend was released after 10 months of being arrested for violating the Capital Market Act with a bail of 300 million won.

Dispatch said that it had to wait 10 months to ask Kang Jong Hyun about the details of the money he provided to his girlfriend. In particular, the news site expressed deep suspicion about the purpose when Kang Jong Hyun stole 250 million won of the company's money and deposited it into Park Min Young's personal bank account.

However, Dispatch said that both the actress and her ex-boyfriend avoided and delayed giving an answer.

"I contacted him several times but there was no response. Park Min Young's side also delayed a response for three weeks. On December 26, 2023, I sent an inquiry to Hook Entertainment but have not received a response yet."

Meanwhile, Park Min Young is currently back as the female lead in tvN's "Marry My Husband." The drama is produced by Chorokbaem Media, the company that acquired 100% of Hook Entertainment's shares.

According to Dispatch: "The real owner of Chorokbaem is 'business hunter' Won Young Sik, who was arrested for disrupting the capital market."

Currently, the drama "Marry My Husband" is attracting a large domestic and international audience. Nielsen Korea recorded viewership ratings of 5.2% and 5.9% for the first two episodes, peaking at 7.4%.

According to FlixPatrol statistics, "You Go Marry My Husband" has risen to the top 3 Global TV Shows. was viewed on the Amazon Prime Video streaming platform on January 4, just three days after the film premiered.

The film also entered the top 10 of Amazon Prime Video in 59 countries such as Australia, Japan, India, etc., in the top 5 in 40 countries and top 3 in 37 other countries.

In addition, the film also reached No.1 on the daily chart on the Kinolights content community as of January 4.

However, netizens are worried that if Dispatch's accusations are true, Park Min Young's budding career will be at risk of dying out, making it difficult for her to return to the harsh market that values actor ethics like Kbiz in the future.
