Comedian Park Na-rae has been referred to the Prosecution Service over allegations of operating an unregistered one-person agency.

According to police on the 14th, the Seoul Gangnam Police Station transferred Park Na-rae to the Seoul Central District Prosecutors' Office on the 9th on suspicion of violating the Act on the Promotion of the Arts and Culture Industry. Additionally, Park's mother and the agency corporation were also referred on the same charges.

Park Na-rae and her mother are suspected of establishing and operating a one-person agency under the name Mo Chin-eul (CEO) without registering it with the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism starting in 2024.

Article 26 of the current Act on the Promotion of the Arts and Culture Industry stipulates that registration is required to operate entertainment agencies or other arts and culture planning businesses. Violating this provision may result in a prison sentence of up to two years or a fine of up to 20 million won.

Earlier, on the 10th, Park Na-rae was also referred to the Prosecution Service on suspicion of violating the Special Act on Violence and the Act on the Promotion of Information and Communications Network Utilization and Information Protection, among others, over allegations of abusing and assaulting former managers.
