Following the release of the meeting video with Koyote members, Mun Won has personally addressed the negative comments and rumors that flooded in, and it has been confirmed that he divorced his ex-wife amicably.
According to OSEN's report on the 3rd, Mun Won has smoothly concluded his marital life with his ex-spouse through a mutually agreed divorce. Currently, the custody of their daughter is held by his ex-wife, and Mun Won continues to communicate with his daughter consistently as a responsible father.
Recently, after revealing that he is a divorced man with a daughter, an anonymous internet user claiming to be a 'friend of the ex-wife' appeared online and wrote, "Please request to view the divorce case records. You will be truly surprised," raising controversy by claiming that the reasons for the divorce stemmed from unilateral fault.
The post baselessly suggested accessing divorce case records and fueled a negative image of Mun Won, with unverified suspicious comments flooding Shin Ji's YouTube videos and social media.
However, since Mun Won and his ex-wife divorced amicably, there is no record specifying the reasons for the divorce, as specific reasons were not documented due to mutual agreement.
This controversy arose after unverified stories about Mun Won's past rapidly spread following the announcement of his marriage to Shin Ji. Various rumors emerged, including those related to 'double relationships and premarital pregnancy,' 'military violence,' and 'illegal brokerage practices'; some were confirmed to be untrue, while Mun Won himself clarified them.
On the 3rd, Mun Won posted a lengthy message on his social media, saying, "After the news of my marriage was shared, I have come across many stories about myself, and I was concerned that the facts I recall might have been distorted, so I needed time to confirm the exact facts, and I ask for your understanding."
He acknowledged, "It is true that I engaged in real estate sales without a real estate agent license while surrounded by controversy. During my unknown days, I started due to a friend's suggestion to maintain my livelihood, but I did not recognize that engaging in brokerage activities without a license was wrong. I will not make any excuses. I sincerely apologize to all those disappointed by this and will take full responsibility for what I should be responsible for."
However, he stated, "I want to make it clear that some of them are not true. The claims that I bullied friends or juniors during my school and military service are completely false, and if necessary, I am willing to secure objective evidence to prove this." He also added regarding his relationship with his ex-wife, "It is true that I married due to a premarital pregnancy with my ex-wife, but I want to clearly state that the claim of having a double relationship during that process is also not true." He further addressed the name change controversy, saying, "Park Sang-moon is my real name, and I only changed my stage name from Gi-ryeon to Mun Won, and I have never changed my real name. I sincerely ask that you refrain from making unverified speculative statements and spreading false information." Finally, he concluded, "Once again, I apologize for causing concern. I will reflect on my shortcomings and strive to be a more responsible person in my life with Shin Ji. I bow my head in apology once again."
Meanwhile, Shin Ji announced her marriage to singer Mun Won, who is 7 years younger, last month. The two met through the MBC radio show 'Lee Yun-seok and Shin Ji's Single-Bonggeul Show' and recently conducted their wedding shoot ahead of their marriage in the first half of next year.
