The endless fight continues.

As Fink member and musical actress Ok Ju-hyun has reignited the 'Ok Jang-pan controversy,' malicious comments are pouring into Kim Ho-young's SNS.

Kim Ho-young is currently traveling in New York, USA. Two days ago, she uploaded several selfies showing her recent activities on her personal SNS.

However, the post has been flooded with malicious comments such as: "We used to be like siblings, right? A lot of time has passed; I hope you apologize to Ok Ju-hyun and resolve this," "You got caught up with Ok Jang-pan," and "Let's not talk nonsense. Who is speaking rudely to whom? Stop being a singer and become a musical actress instead. Reflect on yourself."

On the 6th, Ok Ju-hyun stated on a fan communication platform: "I only heard from Kim Ho-young that she was grateful for my decision to drop the lawsuit, but I never received an apology," thereby referencing the 'Ok Jang-pan controversy' that erupted about four years ago.

The 'Ok Jang-pan controversy' refers to a case from about four years ago when allegations of nepotism in casting for the musical 'Elisabeth' arose, and Kim Ho-young posted on SNS saying, "Asari-pan is old news. Now it's Ok Jang-pan," which was interpreted as targeting Ok Ju-hyun.

With this controversy resurfacing after four years, Ok Ju-hyun issued another statement on her personal SNS on the 8th.

That day, Ok Ju-hyun said: "After hearing (Kim Ho-young's) explanation, I decided not to discuss this issue further. However, time has not made that frame disappear. Nevertheless, I remained silent because I did not want to harm the production company and my colleagues." She added, "The 'Ok Jang-pan' frame, which started from one person's words, became a nickname attached to my name, and since then, I have had to endure suspicions, mockery, and criticism created by that phrase for a long time."

She continued: "That remark did not end as a simple joke or incident. It actually affected my image, advertisements, and work activities. Even when deciding whether to accept or drop a project, I worried that the frame might become a burden to others," expressing her past pain.
