Parents who owe a large sum of money by selling their names because their children are celebrities. Stars who have done their best to solve the problem because they are children before celebrities, but have even brought out unwanted family history. Actor Kim Hye-soo, Han So-hee, Cha Ye-ryun, and Park Bo-gum were hit by image damage as they were cubicled by their parents' debt.
It was later announced that Han So-hee's mother was accused of fraud on July 7. So-hee apologized once for her mother's fraud two years ago. At the time, Han So-hee revealed that she grew up under her grandmother due to her parents' divorce as a child.
This time, it was known that Han So-hee's mother used a bankbook to open a bankbook when Han So-hee was a minor and to borrow money without knowing the bankbook. Han So-hee's mother was also caught up in a forgery of private documents following borrowing money from her daughter's bank account. A series of cases led to a civil trial, and the court ruled that it was irrelevant to Han So-hee.
"I am sorry for the inconvenience of personal affairs, and it is true that I can not break the life of my mother and daughter. I am sorry for those who have been harmed unintentionally," said Han So-hee. "There is no plan to be responsible for the related debt, to use the name of the daughter to borrow money, and to prevent a series of acts that try to exploit the daughter as a famous entertainer and get money."
Kim Hye-soo in 2019 had a similar controversy. His mother borrowed about 1.3 billion won from his acquaintances and did not pay it back. Kim Hye-soo, a legal representative, said, "My mother has caused a lot of money problems for decades. I have never been involved without knowing the contents, and I have not gained any benefits, but I have been responsible for the reimbursement instead. "
In 2012, Kim Hye-soo's mother was already in debt to all of her assets, which she had suffered and failed to reconcile. Kim Hye-soo's mother, who had cut off the relationship but had not seen it for nearly eight years, caused financial problems again, making Kim Hye-soo difficult. Kim Hye-soo said, "The responsibility of the problem is to the mother, and the party should be covered to the end." Kim Hye-soo explained that there is no basis for legal responsibility on behalf of the mother.
Jang Yun-jeong also flew his entire fortune because of his mother. Jang Yun-jeong has left all the money he has earned to his mother, but his mother has spent all of it on his son's business. The father was shocked by a stroke and Jang Yun-jeong owed 1 billion won.
When Jang Yun-jeong did not pay, Jang Yun-jeong's mother and About Her Brother slandered Jang Yun-jeong. Jang Yun-jeong had a tough time with his debt-related workshop with his biological mother, About Her Brother and the lawsuit to return the loan.
Cha Ye-ryun was known even as a private death due to his father's debt; it was reported in 2018 that Cha Ye-ryun's father was a criminal who was sentenced for land transaction fraud.
His father was sentenced to three years in prison for fraud under the Severe Economic Crime Punishment Act of 2015, and was reported to the media as a "famous female Actor father" at the time. Cha Ye-ryun revealed that he had not been in and out of his father for 15 years after his 19-year-old father's bankruptcy, as well as had been paying his father's debts instead.
Cha Ye-ryun said, "I felt responsible for the debtors believing in their own name as an entertainer and lending money to my father, and I paid my debts and used all the fees to pay my debts." Cha Ye-ryun reimbursed about 1 billion won in debt.
Park Bo-gum filed for bankruptcy because of his father's debt. Park Bo-gum's father borrowed 300 million won from The Godfather company in 2008 and set up his son, Park Bo-gum, a 15-year-old minor, as a solidarity guarantor.
The debts were raised to 800 million as Park Bo-gum's father failed to pay off his debts, and The Godfather company demanded that Park Bo-gum pay off his debts instead. In 2014, Park Bo-gum filed for bankruptcy, saying, "I was a middle school student at the time of the solidarity guarantee, and I did not know about the loan."
In addition to the mentioned stars, Jang Yun-jeong, Hgo Eun, and Cho Ji-jung have been constantly under pressure to repay instead of being named because they were disowned from their parents. In addition, he was in a harsh situation where he had to reveal his dark personal history.
The fraud Victims are unfair and frustrating. They would have believed that they would not have cheated because they were entertainers' parents. But those who are in a situation where they are in debt because they are entertainers are also Victims, who were forced to pay their debts with their children. I tried to pay for it, but it was another debt that came back. I am sorry for those who have been hurt by their parents.
