Comedian Park Na-rae is currently facing serious allegations of mistreating her managers, with no official statement released a day after the controversy emerged. Reports indicate that her scheduled activities for today, December 5th, have been canceled.

On December 5th, it was reported by a media outlet that Park Na-rae was supposed to participate in the filming of MBC's 'Nado Shinna.'(나도 신나) However, following the emergence of allegations on December 4th, the production team informed the cast that the filming scheduled for the 5th was canceled.

'Nado Shinna' is a reality travel variety show featuring Park Na-rae, Jang Do-yeon, Shin Ki-ru, and Heo An-na, who are known to be close friends in the entertainment industry. The show, which involves spontaneous and unplanned adventures, is set to air in January next year and has been filming multiple episodes. The recording planned for the 5th has been canceled.

Previously, two of Na-rae Park's former managers filed a provisional seizure of real estate at the Seoul Western District Court on December 3rd. They claim to have suffered workplace harassment, special assault, proxy prescriptions, and unpaid expenses during their tenure, and have announced plans to file a lawsuit seeking damages of approximately 100 million won.

The former managers allege that Na-rae Park forced them to run errands, clean up after parties, and accompany her to drinking sessions, effectively keeping them on call 24/7.

One manager alleges verbal abuse for not drinking alcohol and claims to have been injured by a glass thrown by an angry Na-rae Park.

A representative for Na-rae Park stated, "We have completed an internal review regarding the lawsuit and are preparing an official statement with our legal representatives, which will be released as a press release." However, no official announcement has been made yet.
