Cha Ga-won, chairwoman of real estate service company Park Group, has spoken out regarding infidelity rumors involving singer MC Mong.

The the 2nd broadcast of MBC's 'PD Notebook' revealed the episode titled 'MC Mong and the Chairwoman's K-pop Trade Secrets,' which investigated the exclusive contract disputes as singers who were once part of the agency One Hundred Label left one after another, as well as allegations of overseas gambling and embezzlement related to the company's fund management.

On that day, Cha Ga-won met directly with the 'PD Notebook' production team for an interview. "I was exhausted because everything was finished after preventing an accident. If I speak out, I will be severely hurt. The entertainment industry might be turned upside down," said Cha Ga-won, who added, "I am still someone who feels awkward when my name appears in the media. I do not consider myself a celebrity who appears on broadcasts, nor a public figure," before cautiously opening up.

When asked what work Cha Ga-won had done before entering the entertainment industry, she replied, "I mainly developed high-end villas and was also involved in construction. In addition, our group company undertook many other projects." In fact, a high-end villa built by Cha Ga-won's company in Hannam-dong, the four-story The Penthouse, was once listed for sale at 20 billion won.

So, what was the reason Cha Ga-won entered the entertainment business? She explained, "There was no grand reason. I simply got to know MC Mong as an acquaintance. He told me that the previous investor was leaving the company and that we needed help, and at that time, he spoke very optimistically."

Furthermore, Cha Ga-won stated, "After observing the characteristics of the entertainment industry for a few months, I thought from an investor's perspective that we needed to increase our IP, build a company system, and that it would not be easy to build up this company with just a few artists currently in place."

However, in June last year, MC Mong suddenly left the company. Regarding the background, Cha Ga-won said, "At that time, we had been receiving reports of MC Mong's prostitution since early 2025. The situation we had anticipated occurred."

Subsequently, MC Mong stated via an SNS live broadcast, "'Mr. MC Mong will be excluded from all BPM-related duties starting today.' I feel an indescribable sense of betrayal. And I am quitting and just leaving."

Half a year later, an infidelity scandal erupted between Cha Ga-won and MC Mong. Cha Ga-won revealed, "In fact, when MC Mong caused trouble and left, he colluded with my uncle, Cha XX, and if they had not caused any problems, the company would not have ended up in this situation." Cha Ga-won claimed that her uncle, a representative of a well-known development company, and MC Mong spread false reports to steal the company, causing the company to fall into difficulty.

Cha Ga-won lamented, "I had no power to defend myself. As a result, the company's deficit worsened, and the situation of owner risk arose, bringing the company to a point where it was out of control."
