Jang Dong-min, Park Hye-kyung, 'sparks' in the controversy of fellow celebrities

Controversy over allegations of celebrity participation in crime sparked even the wrong place. Lim Chang-jung, who was caught up in a stock price manipulation case, and Hyun-young, who was suspected of being involved in the mom cafe fraud case, were summoned from Park Hye-kyung, Mimi Rose, and Jang Dong-min and suffered hardship.

Hyun-young is suspected of being involved with Mr. A, the operator of Mom Cafe, who caused damages of 60 billion won. Mr. A committed a 'Ponzi scheme' in which members were tricked into paying the proceeds by deceiving members with gift certificate investment techniques and high-yielding interest.

Hyun-young also lent 500 million won to Mr. A and received 35 million won in interest equivalent to 7% for 5 months, but it is known that he sued Mr. A in her husband's name, saying that he did not get back the principal amount of 325 million won.

The controversy triggered by Hyun-young moved to Jang Dong-min. Suspicions arose that Jang Dong-min was acquainted with Mr. A, the suspect in the Mom Cafe fraud case. It is known that Jang Dong-min held a wedding ceremony in the penthouse known to be owned by Mr. A, and took pictures with Hyun-young at Mr. A's house in April of last year.

In response, Jang Dong-min immediately started to explain. His agency explained, “Mr. A, whom we met by chance at live commerce, rented a wedding venue to Jang Dong-min for free,” and “later, we found out that the wedding venue was not owned by Mr. A.” ", he drew a line.

While Jang Dong-min actively denied the allegations of involvement, Hyun-young, who kept silent, belatedly said that he was also a victim and emphasized, "I have never joined the mom cafe, interacted with the cafe members, or recommended investment." However, unlike Jang Dong-min, suspicions about the financial situation are not going away.

In April last year, Lim Chang-jung was embroiled in suspicion of stock price manipulation, and Park Hye-kyung and Mimi Rose suffered a lot of damage. Lim Chang-jung, who was known to have invested 3 billion won in principle in stock manipulation forces, claimed that he was also a victim, saying that he also owed 6 billion won. However, he handed over his ID card and a cell phone under his name, and was suspected of participating in stock price manipulation by attending a party held to commemorate the group's overrun of 1 trillion won in operating funds.

Park Hye-kyung was also involved in gossip because she was at the party. In response, Park Hye-kyung explained that she only attended the event because there was a clause in the exclusive contract with the agency that she would perform 20 times at the event. He emphasized that he did not talk about investment at all. Afterwards, Park Hye-kyung notified her agency, Channel Sum, of the termination of her exclusive contract.

The spark of Lim Chang-jung's investment failure was intact in the girl group he produced, Mimi Rose. Lim Chang-jung has revealed on the air that Mimi Rose spent more than 20 billion won, but when the incident broke out, she used Mimi Rose as a shield, saying that she had no money to promote the girl group. In the end, Mimi Rose's comeback, which was scheduled for July, has been postponed to September. In the end, Lim Chang-jung's hasty investment and wrong marketing methods became an obstacle to Mimi Rose's dream.

Hyun-Young and Lim Chang-Jung may also be victims of excessive greed, not suspects. However, it is regrettable that even the most innocent people are involved and suffer damage due to their greed. You have to realize that a small spark can explode and become a big fire.
