One of the former managers who raised allegations of abuse against comedian Park Na-rae (41) has hired a lawyer.

Lawyer Jang Hyun-ho of Law Firm Kang Sim-ui (CEO) posted a video titled "I received contact from Park Na-rae's former manager" on his YouTube channel 'Jang Lawyer' on the 11th.

In the video, Lawyer Jang stated, "Recently, there is something I would like to announce. Around last year, I made a video about the dispute between Park Na-rae and her former manager. After watching that video, one of Park Na-rae's former managers contacted us recently expressing their desire to appoint our law firm as their representative. It has been decided that we will diligently handle the case on their behalf."

He continued, "As you know, this case involves conflicting claims from both sides and unclear evidence, leaving significant room for dispute. They are engaged in a fierce battle. For the one manager who trusted and entrusted me to represent them, I intend to fight with all my strength."

Lawyer Jang added, "Although the outcome is not yet determined, we prepared this video to clarify that we did not film content favoring this individual (Park Na-rae's former manager) simply because we are their representative and lawyer. We hope there will be no misunderstanding." He thus sought to dispel any suspicions.

Earlier, on January 14, Lawyer Jang had released a video with the thumbnail "In the end, the manager will win," legally analyzing the conflict between Park Na-rae and two former managers. In that 38-minute-43-second video, he analyzed issues such as "why Park Na-rae has not apologized" based on the former managers' revelations and media reports at the time.

In particular, Lawyer Jang said, "The path to reconciliation and settlement is growing increasingly distant, and the conflict is deepening. Considering the risk of actual imprisonment, this is by no means a good path for (Park Na-rae). A typical recent dangerous mistake is that a property seizure order has been filed against Park Na-rae's residence. I am worried about Park Na-rae. I really wonder why she is doing this," as he sighed.

He then added, "Currently, there are a total of seven lawsuits pending against Park Na-rae. Given the many things that need to be resolved, how much do you think she would have had to pay in lawyer fees?" In response, Lawyer Jang said, "I believe she must have paid at least 500 million won."

Lawyer Jang remarked, "That's just how it is. When people engage in battles of pride, only lawyers make money. Lawyers earn huge sums, managers might earn around 100 to 200 million won, and Park Na-rae could end up in prison or receive a suspended sentence. Watching this unfold, I wish she had made a more rational and reasonable choice. What is there about human pride? Since it's my profession, honestly, I'm not particularly surprised."

Meanwhile, according to police on the 10th, the Seoul Gangnam Police Station referred Park Na-rae without detention on charges of special assault and violation of the Act on Promotion of Information and Communications Network Utilization and Information Protection, among others. This comes approximately seven months after the former managers filed criminal complaints. Two of Park Na-rae's former managers filed lawsuits against her last December on charges including special injury, defamation by spreading false facts, and violation of the Information and Communications Network Act.

Former manager A submitted a medical certificate indicating a two-week treatment period to the police, claiming, "I was subjected to verbal abuse because I do not drink alcohol, suffered bruises on my face after being hit by a glass thrown by Park Na-rae, and injured my hand, requiring four stitches." Additionally, the former managers raised allegations of workplace harassment and unpaid wages.

In response, Park Na-rae has filed counter-criminal complaints against the former managers on charges including attempted extortion and embezzlement in the course of business.

Park Na-rae is also facing allegations of undergoing illegal medical procedures from a so-called "injection auntie" who does not hold a domestic medical license. Due to these various controversies, Park Na-rae withdrew from all variety shows she was regularly appearing on in December last year, including MBC's 'I Live Alone' and tvN's 'Amazing Saturday,' and has completely halted her activities.
