Further reveals from informants have emerged regarding the school violence allegations of actress Song Ha-yoon.
On the afternoon of April 2, JTBC’s “Crime Chief” further addressed Song Ha-yoon’s school violence allegations.
Earlier on the 1st, the program raised allegations of school violence against S, an actress loved for her villain role in a recent popular K-drama. At the time, Informant A claimed that during their high school days, S beat them for an hour and a half without any reason, and S was allegedly forced to transfer schools due to the violence.
In the midst of this, Song Ha-yoon, who skyrocketed to fame with her chilling villain performance in the recent tvN drama “Marry My Husband”, was identified as ‘Actress S.’ In response, her agency stated that Song Ha-yoon claimed to have no acquaintance with the information, denying all allegations of school violence.
Meanwhile, in the new episode of “Crime Chief”, the informant revealed additional anecdotes about Song Ha-yoon’s school violence allegation.
In particular, the informant stated, “You don’t know who I am? It’s impossible not to know,” adding, “How can they offer to cover all the expenses if I come to Korea from the United States without even knowing who I am? It doesn’t make sense”.
Furthermore, they said, “If this (school violence scandal) explodes, related stories will also come out. My friends all know about it, but only one person (Song Ha-yoon) doesn’t know. People have been holding back, but from now, everything will be revealed”
In response to Song Ha-yoon’s claims, the informant rebutted, “I didn’t know about her activities while living in the United States. What I wanted was not to avoid meeting (Song Ha-yoon), but to receive an apology and understand why she bullied me. Because that didn’t happen, I decided to reveal everything.”
In the meantime, “Crime Chief” stated that before the broadcast, Song Ha-yoon agreed to directly participate in an interview regarding the school violence claims, but for reasons unknown, she suddenly canceled her appearance.
The program also added that the informant said they would give one last chance, that if Song Ha-yoon admits her mistake and apologizes, they would stop.
Meanwhile, on the afternoon of the 2nd, King Kong by Starship, Song Ha-yoon’s agency, insisted that the content of the broadcast on JTBC’s “Crime Chief” and subsequent reports related to Song Ha-yoon are not true.
“In the future, through confirming the facts of this matter and legal review through a law firm, we are considering all necessary measures, including civil and criminal actions against the informant and the imposition of a broadcast ban on JTBC’s ‘Crime Chief,’” the company also stated.
