"I am not the person who blackmailed Son Heung-min!" Musical actress Jeong Min-hee expressed strong displeasure towards baseless malicious rumors.

On the 23rd, Jeong Min-hee revealed direct messages (DMs) sent by some netizens on her personal social media. The messages included inquiries towards Jeong Min-hee such as "Are you the person who blackmailed Son Heung-min?", "Are you really Son Heung-min's ex-girlfriend?", and "Someone posted on the internet that you are Son Heung-min's ex-girlfriend on Instagram. Is that true?", which caught attention.

In relation to this, Jeong Min-hee emphatically stated, "That is not me." She also added, "Who is it? Please stop the comments and follow requests," firmly countering the accusations. Her brief but clear message revealed her displeasure and sense of injustice.

The rumors mentioned by Jeong Min-hee are related to the recent blackmail incident involving Son Heung-min. Recently, Son Heung-min's former girlfriend, a woman in her 20s known as A, claimed she was pregnant and demanded money, while an accomplice, a man in his 40s known as B, allegedly extorted millions of won.

In fact, A was previously in a relationship with Son Heung-min and is reported to have received 300 million won from him before undergoing an abortion. However, it remains unverified whether the fetus was actually Son Heung-min's biological child. Additionally, no evidence has been found to support the alleged conspiracy between A and B. A and B are both currently in custody and have been transferred to the prosecution.

Amid this, various rumors have circulated about the identity of A, Son Heung-min's ex-girlfriend. During this time, Jeong Min-hee was identified as A and strongly denied the allegations through her personal social media. Nevertheless, some netizens have engaged in indiscriminate attacks on Jeong Min-hee's social media.

Jeong Min-hee is an actress who debuted in 2016 with the musical 'Aida.' She has been recognized for her skills in productions such as 'Mata Hari,' 'Excalibur,' and 'Mamma Mia.' This incident represents an unexpected secondary victimization for Jeong Min-hee, who has built her career solely on the performance stage.

In response, fans have shown support for Jeong Min-hee, saying, "I hope she doesn't get hurt outside of performances" and "It's too much to cross the line against an innocent person." There is a growing demand for awareness regarding irresponsible consumption of information.
