The long-running controversy surrounding actress Song Ha Yoon’s alleged involvement in school bullying is set to be explored on the investigative program 'Curious Stories Y.'
On September 3, the production team released a teaser on its official social media channels with the caption, “A confession after 21 years. What is the truth behind Song Ha Yoon’s bullying scandal?”
The preview includes pointed questions such as “Is the villainous character she plays in dramas her true self?” and features interviews with individuals believed to be whistleblowers. One interviewee claims, “She’s a devil. She said ‘I won’t hit you anymore,’ and then hit again. She never once said sorry.” Another person says, “If a senior hits you, you just have to take it,” while another mentions receiving a medical diagnosis requiring three weeks of recovery, adding to the shock.
Song Ha Yoon’s legal representative reportedly declined to participate in the interview, telling producers, “We’re unable to respond. Please leave.” The teaser ends with the same caption about the 21-year-old confession, leaving viewers wondering whether the truth will finally come to light.
The controversy first surfaced publicly in April 2024 when a man identified as 'A' appeared on JTBC’s 'Crime Chief,' alleging that Song Ha Yoon slapped him repeatedly for 90 minutes during their high school years. Song’s agency denied the claims, stating they were groundless and that she had no acquaintance with the accuser.
Despite the denial, 'A' continued to assert his claims. In response, Song Ha Yoon’s team filed a criminal complaint on August 18, 2025, accusing him of defamation and obstruction of business under Korea’s Information and Communications Network Act. A second complaint followed on August 22, citing further charges including intimidation.
With 'Curious Stories Y' now investigating the case, public attention is focused on whether new evidence or testimonies will emerge to shift the narrative.
