Nancy Lang reveals her current situation after four years.

On the October 1st broadcast of MBN's 'Special World,' pop artist Nancy Lang appeared and confessed that her debts have increased following a 'fraudulent marriage' incident.

During the show, Nancy Lang shared, "I was behind on my rent for up to five months, and the landlord asked me to leave. I broke down when my credit cards were cut off," she said. "I resorted to borrowing from first, second, and third-tier financial institutions, and even loan sharks. Eventually, my debt grew from 800 million to 1.5 billion won."

She continued, "Many people tried to take advantage of me. It felt like being surrounded by zombies," she recalled, expressing her difficult emotions at the time. "Going through such experiences made me dislike people."

Currently, she supplements her living expenses through second-hand sales. "Even if I achieve good results in solo exhibitions, the interest on my debt is too high, and I need basic living expenses. I sell everything from tables to expensive watches and antique furniture," she explained. "I've been enduring and sustaining myself like this for years. I've worked hard to move from third-tier to second-tier, and now to first-tier financial institutions."

In her quest for a new relationship, Nancy Lang visited a matchmaking agency, expressing her desire for a fresh start in both work and love. However, the agency expressed concerns, saying, "If it's revealed that Nancy Lang, a well-known pop artist in Korea, is carrying debt, there won't be many men willing to meet her courageously." In response, Nancy Lang firmly stated, "I will repay my debt myself. I'm willing to get it notarized."
