[theqoo] HA YOUNG'S REP, APOLOGIZES AFTER INITIALLY DENYING ALLEGATIONS THAT HER GREAT-GRANDFATHER COLLABORATED WITH JAPAN... "WE FEEL DEEPLY SORRY"


Actress Ha Young’s agency has issued a statement regarding allegations that her great-grandfather was a pro-Japanese collaborator.

On the 11th, BISTUS Entertainment released an official statement saying, “We have confirmed that an actual record exists showing that Ha Young’s great-grandfather, Ahn Sang-ho, was listed as a council member of the Daejeong Friendship Association in 1916.” The agency continued, “We sincerely apologize for causing confusion by hastily responding that the allegations were ‘completely unfounded’ without conducting sufficient verification.”

Full statement from BISTUS Entertainment

Hello, this is BISTUS Entertainment.

We would like to share our position regarding the recent reports concerning actress Ha Young’s family history.

First, we would like to address our previous statement in which we said the allegations were “completely unfounded.” After conducting additional checks, we have confirmed that an actual record exists showing that Ha Young’s great-grandfather, Ahn Sang-ho, was listed as a council member of the Daejeong Friendship Association in 1916. We sincerely apologize for causing confusion by hastily responding that the allegations were “completely unfounded” without sufficient verification.

Recently, while answering questions on a television program, actress Ha Young mentioned her family’s four-generation medical legacy. She is currently feeling deeply troubled that this unintentionally led to controversy.

Through this incident, we have come to deeply understand how careful and thorough the verification process must be when presenting historical facts and an individual’s personal history to the public.

Actress Ha Toung also takes this incident seriously and will approach her work with greater caution and humility going forward.

Thank you.

1. Retire

2. That family needs to get their history education straight. How did they end up living their lives patting themselves on the back, only to have their ancestors' graves desecrated because she went and bragged about it? Tsk tsk

3. Thanks to her, I learned that a family of pro-Japanese collaborators is still living comfortably, with generations of doctors in the family^^

4. It's not like she's irreplaceable, so I wonder if there's any reason to cast her in anything anymore

5. I never thought I’d actually see a royal traitor in person. I thought she was living off the money she'd secretly stashed away, but she's so brazen it makes my head spin

6. She was so proud of him, so why doesn't she say she's even prouder?

7. "She is currently feeling deeply troubled".. it doesn't seem like this is something that can just end with "I'm sorry";; This is way too severe

8. Exterminate three generations

9. And only now does her heat feel "troubled?"?ã…‹ã…‹ã…‹ã…‹ã…‹ã…‹ã…‹ã…‹ã…‹ã…‹ã…‹ã…‹ã…‹ã…‹ã…‹ã…‹ã…‹ã…‹ã…‹ã…‹ã…‹ã…‹ã…‹ã…‹ã…‹ã…‹ã…‹ã…‹ã…‹ã…‹ã…‹ She's actually perfect for TV

10. Crazy... sigh, just leave

11. She was doing forced virality using her family and she said it was unfounded

12. This post is so unbelievable that it’s hard to believe it’s an official statement

13. Even if she was a commoner living the high life, it would be ridiculous, let alone be an actressã…‹ã…‹....

14. Not just those who collaborated with Japan, but anyone who betrays the nation should be condemned by the entire nation

15. I don't want to see her on TV anymore. She's rich anyways, so she'll live well regardless
