[Asia Economy Reporter Kang Hyesoo] Actress Han Sohee's mother has become a hot topic among netizens amid allegations of a 'debt controversy.'
Earlier on the 18th, a post titled "The Celebrity Mom from The World of the Married Involved in Fraud" was uploaded on an online community board. The post began with, "Hello. I am writing to inform you that the mother of the person who suddenly became famous from The World of the Married is a fraudster," and claimed, "From October 2015 to August 2016, I participated in a savings club run by that celebrity's mother. On the day to collect the money in September 2016, that celebrity's mother disappeared," stating that they did not receive the money from the celebrity's mother in question.
Additionally, the post said, "Even though I said I only wanted to get back the principal, she did not pay it back. When her daughter became successful, she said she would pay in one lump sum. At that time, I even went to her daughter's entertainment company in Seoul. I really had dreams with that money, but everything was ruined. Now, I just want that person to be punished, regardless of the money. Honestly, every time I see that celebrity on TV, I get so angry and wonder if she became famous with my money. I was ruined like this, but that celebrity is doing well even though her mother committed fraud. I just think, since she is doing so well, why can't she settle my money?"
The post continued, "Even though I asked for monthly repayments, for four years she only paid 300,000 won or 100,000 won every few months. Recently, when that celebrity appeared in The World of the Married and I tried to contact her, she had changed her contact information. After finding her contact through others and reaching out, she said she no longer communicates with her daughter and then ignored me while promising to pay again," the post added.
In response, netizens speculated that the celebrity mentioned by the poster is actress Han Sohee, who played the role of Yeo Da-kyung in The World of the Married, expressing sympathy. Neither the agency nor Han Sohee herself has issued any official statements regarding the matter.
Meanwhile, actress Han Sohee debuted in 2017 with the SBS drama Reunited Worlds and recently became a rising star with her role as Yeo Da-kyung in The World of the Married. It is known that she lived with her grandparents after her parents divorced during her childhood.
