Park Na-rae Files Countercomplaint Against Ex-Managers as Police Open Abuse Probe

Her agency says the former staff demanded 10 percent of last year’s revenue.

Overview

  • Park’s agency said it filed an extortion countercomplaint with Yongsan Police, denied embezzlement claims, and is preparing a separate filing against at least one ex-manager for suspected embezzlement.
  • Gangnam Police confirmed an active investigation following a complaint alleging aggravated assault and violations of the Medical Service Act and the Popular Culture and Arts Industry Development Act, naming Park, her mother, a medical professional and a former manager.
  • Two former managers previously sought a provisional seizure of Park’s real estate and said they will pursue damages of 100 million won each.
  • The ex-managers allege workplace bullying, verbal and physical assault, forced personal errands including proxy medical tasks, and unpaid business expenses, with additional claims that company funds were misused.
  • Production fallout includes MBC canceling a recording for a new variety program featuring Park, while other scheduled broadcasts proceeded without announced changes.
