• “Are you kidding me?”— Song Ha Yoon's Agency Admits Forced Transfer Due to School Violence, Denies Connection to Slapping Accusations

    Song Ha Yoon's side has acknowledged that the actress was indeed forced to transfer schools due to a case related to school violence, but they denied any connection to the specific slapping incident reported by an informant.

    The actress, known for her role in the popular drama 'Marry My Husband', came under scrutiny after allegations of school bullying surfaced, prompting coverage by JTBC's 'Crime Chief'. The victim claimed to have been bullied by an actress referred to as actress S, alleging a prolonged slapping incident during their school years.

    Following the broadcast, reports emerged suggesting that Song Ha Yoon had undergone multiple school transfers due to incidents related to school violence.

    On April 2, her agency, King Kong by Starship, confirmed that she indeed transferred schools due to a case involving school violence at Banpo High School. However, they emphasized that it was unrelated to the specific slapping incident reported by the informant.

    The agency maintained that Song Ha Yoon had no acquaintance with the informant and did not provide further details about the nature of the school violence case that led to her forced transfer.

    Initially, the agency had denied all allegations, stating that they found no connection between Song Ha Yoon and the informant, and that none of the allegations were true.

    However, they later changed their stance, admitting to the forced school transfer but refraining from disclosing specific details about the incident.

    Song Ha Yoon graduated from Apgujeong High School after attending Joongwon High School and Banpo High School, indicating that she had transferred between three different high schools during her academic years.
