Actor Park Hye-soo (27) directly refuted the allegations of school violence (hereinafter referred to as school violence), and said that he was rather a victim.
On the 7th, Park Hye-soo posted a long post on her Instagram and said, “It took a very long time to post this post. I’m sorry that it took so long to talk like this. I wrote and erased the article many times and repeated it countless times.
While watching and believing that it would pass because it wasn’t true, the lie bit the tail of the lie, gave birth to new lie, and piled up like a mountain and kept getting higher and higher. One or two unrelated photos gained strength as a’certification’, and it was painful as I watched the process of creating prejudices that are difficult to erase by fake disclosures.”
“I knew that many people had been waiting for me to come and talk. But the reason I couldn’t come out for a long time was because I knew that my words would be powerless amid the prejudice that had already grown out of control. Even though a lot of evidence to add strength to the words was exposed, I saw that the facts were not accepted as the truth, so I wrote this.”
Park Hye-soo said, “I have already experienced once in the past that false rumors spread and they were imprinted on people as if they were true. That’s why I know how difficult it is to put the countless lies that come out of people’s mouths back into place one by one,” recalling the troubled school days.
He said, “When I was in my second year of middle school in 2008, I left for the US to study as an exchange student, but the following year, I came back to Korea. “I started school in a strange place where no one knows, and the scary things that I first experienced began to happen. I transferred from Gangbuk, I was one year older than my classmates, and I went to the US to study. “In fact,” he said, “the facts” were filled with false lies and rumors about me began to spread quickly.”
Then, “the rumors that’he said he went to the United States to have an abortion operation’,’that he had never been to the United States, and he was paid for because he was poor in the whole town’ began to follow me as if it were true. My number, which I had only given to me, was scattered all over the place, and every morning when I opened my eyes, I received text messages containing severe abusive language and sexual harassment.

It was an unbearably harsh time. About a week before going to the United States, I am happy that my homeroom teacher and classmates gathered together to hold a surprise farewell party even though it wasn’t the day I went to school. I didn’t know if I should blame it, it was so painful. It was really hard for the bullying for which the reason was unknown, but I couldn’t tell my parents who forced me to move for my education, so I couldn’t tell anyone and I was sick alone. “The bullying got worse and worse. There were things like going over the plate while eating and getting all the food in the school uniform, hitting it while passing the corridor, and spitting abusive language behind your back. I was called into the corridor of the 3rd grade because of’just annoying’ and hit my head in front of many students and heard the words’I want to hit you’ and’I would have hit it even if I was in the 3rd grade.’
Park Hye-soo said, “But the reason I was able to endure in such a situation is because there were some warm friends who reached out. Instead of rumors or prejudices about me, my friends look at me as I am, and thanks to my friends, I have been able to improve my school life. However, due to the still unhealed wounds, I received counseling at the counseling center for 3 years. By receiving regular counseling, I was able to clear a lot of my wounds. Starting with fake rumors, I was hated and harassed, and my resentment toward others turned to myself, and in the end, I was able to gradually appease my feelings of hating and hating myself,” he said.
In addition, Park Hye-soo said, “When I first transferred to school, the person who overturned my plate and spoke swear words when I passed by is the person who claims to be the current victim.” Even while we were together, even this year, when there was no interaction with each other, it has been considered that what we shared was our childhood friendship. “As long as the situation has gone so far, it will be inevitable that the moments legally cover all the discourses, but it really hurts when I think about why the relationship I used to be friends with should be like this.
In response to the recent suspicion of academia, Park Hye-soo said, “The child’s friends ran into my Instagram account in groups and posted falsely littered comments and sown the seeds of all these lies. Anonymous stories circulating on the Internet are also captured on Instagram account. Stories of unknown identity or source are all going around the Internet as if they were true. From Instagram comments to two interviews, I want to ask this child why the hell should he do that and what he gains through this, who tries to spoil me by falsely inciting me with an unreliable story that changes from moment to moment. Even with all of these actions I am hoping to break down and break, I will not be shaken, and even if it takes months, I will surely find out.”
Park Hye-soo said, “The victim meeting room, which was said to have dozens of people, seems to have no substance as in the stories above, and reports are coming from the inside of the room as well. At this time, it feels meaningless to put a stance on all the fake gossip streets floating around, so I will move on without further waiting or compromise. As I watched this event, I encountered myself as a young child who had been hurt by rumors and harassment, which I had hidden deep in my heart. May be. However, I would like you to remember that the false disclosure and the resulting reckless slander can also be the same violence against someone. There have been specific reports on the past mistakes of those who claim to be victims, but I don’t want to publicize the content because I think it is the same violence.”

Park Hye-soo said, “I am so grateful to the many who support and support me even while I haven’t been able to say anything for a few days. Thanks to this, I was able to get up even in agony, see the situation clearly, and prepare step by step. Even if it takes a long time, slowly, one by one, we uncover it, and we believe that all of this will eventually pass. I eagerly ask you to look at the facts as they are in the future,” he appealed.
Earlier, on the online community, on the bulletin board on the portal site, and on social media, there was a series of claims from Park Hye-soo that he had suffered school violence. In common, it is claimed that Park Hye-soo belongs to the so-called’Iljin’, a school violence circle, and extorted money or violence, such as stealing money from nearby middle school students or slapping them on the cheek.
As suspicion of abusing arose, KBS indefinitely delayed the first broadcast of the drama’Dear M,’ starring Park Hye-soo.
Earlier, Park Hye-soo’s management studio Santa Claus Entertainment said, “We have a firm confidence in the fact that the disclosures are false, and we plan to secure considerable evidence to prove such falsehood and submit it to the investigative agency.” Therefore, since the principle of zero tolerance and zero agreement will be fulfilled, we will take a broader and more powerful response, such as additional complaints regarding reckless speculation and posting of false posts.”
Hi. This is Park Hye-soo.
It took a really long time to post this post. I’m sorry it took so long to talk like this. I wrote, erased, and repeated countless times. While watching and believing that it would pass because it was not true, the lie bit the tail of the lie, gave birth to new lie, and piled up like a pile of lie and grew higher and higher. It was painful to see a photo or two unrelated to the facts gaining strength as’certification’, and the process of fake disclosures creating prejudices that are difficult to erase.
I knew that many people had been waiting for me to come and talk. Still, the reason I couldn’t come out for a long time was because I knew that my words would be powerless in the midst of my prejudices that grew out of control. Despite the fact that many evidences were exposed to add strength to the words, I saw that the facts were not taken as the truth, so I wrote this.
I’ve already experienced once in the past that false rumors spread and they were imprinted on people as if they were true. That is why we know how difficult it is to put the countless lies that have come out of people’s mouths one by one.
In 2008, when I was in my second year of middle school, I left for the US to study as an exchange student, and then returned to Korea the following year. When I returned to Korea, I left my hometown and transferred to school, and in July 2009, I returned to the second year of middle school at an unfamiliar school. When I started school in an unfamiliar place where no one knows, the scary things that I experienced for the first time began to happen.
I transferred from Gangbuk, and I was one year older than my classmates, and rumors about me began to spread quickly because of the’fact’ that I had been studying abroad in the United States. Rumors of’he went to the US to have an abortion’ and’that he had never been to the US and that he was paid for poor behavior in the whole town’ began to follow me as if it were true. My number, which I had given to only two or three people, was scattered everywhere, and every morning when I woke up, I received text messages containing severe abusive language and sexual harassment. As soon as I open my eyes in the morning, I remember the times when I checked my cell phone with my thumping heart and cried silently without my parents’ knowledge.
For me, as a very ordinary student in my previous school, loved by my friends and teachers and filled with only good memories, those times were unbearably harsh. About a week before going to the US, I was happy that my homeroom teacher and classmates all gathered and held a surprise farewell party even though it wasn’t the day I went to school. It was very painful not knowing if I should blame it. It was really hard because of the bullying for which the reason was unknown, but I couldn’t tell my parents who forced me to move for my education, so I couldn’t tell anyone and I was sick alone.
The bullying got worse. There were things like going over the plate while eating and getting all the food in the school uniform, hitting it while passing the corridor, and spitting abusive language behind your back. I was called into the corridor of the 3rd grade because it was’just annoying’, and I hit my head in front of many students and heard the words’I want to hit you’ and’I would have hit you even if I was in the 3rd grade’.
However, the reason I was able to endure in such a situation was nonetheless because I had a few warm friends who reached out. Instead of rumors or prejudices about me, I have been able to improve my school life more and more thanks to my friends who look and like me as I am. However, due to the still unhealed wounds, I received counseling at the counseling center for 3 years. By receiving regular consultations, I was able to clear a lot of my wounds. Starting with fake rumors, I was hated, harassed, and resentful towards others, and eventually I was able to soothe my feelings of hating and hating myself.
When I first transferred to school, I overturned my table, and when I passed by, the person who spoke swear words is the person who claims to be the current victim. After that, I got closer to the third grade. Even while we were together, even this year when there was no traffic, what we shared was the friendship of our childhood. As long as the situation has gone so far, it will be inevitable that the moments legally cover all the criticisms, but it really hurts when I think about why the relationship I used to be friends with had to be like this.
The child’s friends ran into my Instagram account in a crowd, posted falsely littered comments, and sowed the seeds of all these lies. Anonymous stories circulating on the Internet are also captured on Instagram account. Stories of unknown identity or origin are all circulating on the Internet as if they were true.
From Instagram comments to two interviews, I would like to ask this child why the hell should he do that and what he gains from it, who wants to spoil me by falsely agitating me with an unreliable story that changes from moment to moment. With all of these actions I’m hoping to break down and break, I won’t be shaken, and even if it takes months, I will surely find out.
The victims’ meeting room, where there were dozens of people, also appears to be insubstantial like the stories above, and reports are coming from inside the room about the number of people in it. At the moment, it feels meaningless to talk about all the fake gossip things that are floating around and make a statement, so I will move on without further waiting or compromise.
As I watched this, I encountered myself as a young child who had been hurt by rumors and harassment, which I had hidden deep in my heart. If I hadn’t chosen a job that reveals this, I might have wanted to appeal to someone about my terrible memories that are hard to recall. However, I would like you to remember that false disclosure and the resulting reckless slander can also be the same violence against someone. There have been specific reports on the past mistakes of those who claim to be victims, but I don’t want to publicize the content because I think it is the same violence.
KBS and DM officials, actors, and all staff who have been affected by the controversy about me…. I am very sorry to all of you.
I am so grateful to the many people who support and support me even while I haven’t been able to say anything for a few days. Thanks to this, I was able to get up in the midst of suffering, see the situation clearly, and prepare step by step.
Even if it takes a long time, slowly, we uncover one by one, and we believe that in the end all of this will pass. I sincerely hope that you will continue to look at the facts as they are. The article was really long. Thank you for reading.
