'Marry My Husband' star Park Min Young faces controversy once again for alleged business ties to ex-boyfriend Kang Jong Hyun

AKP STAFF

'Marry My Husband' star Park Min Young is facing controversy once again for alleged business ties to her ex-boyfriend Kang Jong Hyun.

The actress previously denied she gained any illegal benefits in connection to her former boyfriend, businessman Kang Jong Hyun, who stands accused of embezzling over 60 billion won ($44,948,874.00 USD) in funding from the company Bithumb and its affiliates. According to reports on February 21, Park Min Young still has alleged ties to the controversial businessman.

Business records say Park Min Young is listed on the board of directors on a construction company named One Stone. The business has its offices in Gangdong-gu, Seoul, and it's reportedly in the same building as a cellphone store associated with Kang Jong Hyun as it's managed by a Bithumb affiliate company named IT. Furthermore, One Stone has allegedly changed its name 3 times from Jijoong Tour to Bizz Mall Tour to Hao Soft, and it's alleged the construction company started out as a travel agency in 2013.

In response, Park Min Young's label Hook Entertainment denied the speculation about shady business dealings. The label stated, "One Stone, where Park Min Young is listed as an executive director, is not a small to medium sized construction company, but a company run by Park Min Young's family. It's a commercial real estate company, and Park Min Young is not involved in any other businesses at One Stone."

As for associations with a Bithumb affiliate company in the same building as One Stone's headquarters, Hook Entertainment explained, "The lease contract with the mobile shop directly managed by IT expired this past January, and One Stone has nothing to do with Kang Jong Hyun."

Stay tuned for updates on Park Min Young.

Allkpop and Germaine- the above article should NOT have been published. Why?? The article have already been debunked by Soompi- 2 hours ago. This shows that your journalists are not so smart and ought to have checked their facts prior to publication of a story that is already a non story; 2 hours late!! Editorial integrity here is zero, sadly!!

She must be cursing the day when she decided to date that scammer. Her whole life is messed up now they aren't letting her breathe, coming up with allegations every other month.
