The woman known online as “Injection Aunt,” identified as Ms. A and suspected of performing unlicensed medical procedures on celebrities, including comedian Park Na Rae, has broken her silence. She spoke out through social media, sharing her thoughts and expressing frustration over media coverage of the case.
On March 10, Ms. A posted a lengthy message on her personal account reflecting on her past. She began by recalling the difficulties she faced when the COVID-19 pandemic began in December 2019.
“When COVID-19 started in December 2019, I could no longer travel to Inner Mongolia for hospital business trips, and all overseas branch operations came to a halt,” she wrote. “It was truly a time when my mental state collapsed.”
She went on to explain how she began helping with her husband’s cosmetics business through social media and eventually built her own brand. Ms. A described the platform as a place where she introduced products used in overseas hospitals and communicated with followers.
“It was my little playground where I introduced products used in overseas hospitals and interacted with people,” she wrote, highlighting the bond she formed with fans who nicknamed her someone who “gives generously.”
Ms. A also referred to the wave of news articles about her that appeared earlier that morning. “I became teary-eyed after reading a message from a fan who bravely sent me a DM,” she said.
She appeared to push back against the allegations, adding, “I don’t think I need to live my life feeling wronged and explaining myself because of what the media is saying. I’ll just live the way I always have.”
However, the hashtags she included at the bottom of the post drew particular attention. Among them were “I wanted to live after reading the brave DM sent to me” and “#IAmAshamedOfMyselfForTryingToEndMyLifeEvenForAMoment,” suggesting that the emotional distress she experienced during the investigation had been severe enough for her to contemplate an extreme choice.
Ms. A is currently under police investigation on suspicion of violating the Medical Service Act, Pharmaceutical Affairs Act, and the Narcotics Control Act. She is accused of administering IV drips to celebrities and prescribing antidepressants without a medical license.
Police have accelerated their investigation, reportedly placing a travel ban on Ms. A in January and conducting a search and seizure of her residence.
After undergoing a nine-hour police questioning session last month, Ms. A previously stated, “I said what wasn’t true wasn’t true, and I admitted where I fell short.”
Notably, immediately after the questioning, she posted - and later deleted - a message on social media targeting a specific individual that read, “Now it’s your turn. Especially one man.” As a result, attention is now focused on whether her latest statement could lead to further revelations or developments in the investigation.
