[Asia Economy Intern Reporter Kim Seong-yeol] Actress and broadcaster Ibon (48) spoke out about rumors related to her.

On the afternoon of the 6th, SBS Plus entertainment program 'Do You Eat?' featured broadcaster Ibon, comedian Shim Hyun-seop, and National Assembly member Lee Cheol-hee.

In the broadcast, Ibon shared stories about being kidnapped in the past and the 'rude celebrity blacklist.'

Ibon explained the situation, saying, "At that time, my manager went ahead to warm up the car, and I was finishing up the shoot and heading to the car. But that's all I remember." She continued, "When I woke up in the morning, it wasn't my room. I heard voices outside saying, 'Why are you making her suffer after bringing her here?'"

She said, "It seems it was a kidnapping, but I didn't think the man would harm me." She added, "I opened the door and asked, and he explained, 'I'm such a big fan that my younger brothers brought you here.'"

She continued, "So I asked them to show me around, and we drank makgeolli together." She revealed, "When I returned home, there was a yellow supercar in front of my house the next day, and there was a letter inside."

Ibon said, "That was his proposal," and "After rejecting it several times, it ended as a happening," revealing the full story of the kidnapping incident.

She also mentioned the 'rude celebrity blacklist.'

She said, "I ranked high in the entertainment industry for being arrogant and rude," and added, "I have a habit of making eye contact when talking, but others misunderstood it as staring."

She also explained why she quit being a DJ for a long-running program.

Ibon said, "I quit to take care of my mother's illness," and "I thought if it wasn't me, my mother wouldn't be stressed. If the illness was caused because of me, I thought it was right for me to take care of her."

She added, "But I didn't know it would last this long," and explained, "Seven years passed like that," referring to her hiatus.
