Ok Ju-hyun (46), a musical actress formerly of the group Finkle, has once again publicly targeted her junior colleague Kim Ho-young (43).

On the 17th, Ok Ju-hyun mentioned Kim Ho-young again on the fan platform Bubble, referring to past controversies surrounding the "Ok-jangpan" incident. Earlier, on the 6th, Ok Ju-hyun had already publicly demanded an explanation from Kim Ho-young, but Kim has remained silent.

In response, Ok Ju-hyun conveyed to fans that she is still waiting. Regarding Kim Ho-young, she pointedly stated, "It's time for you to either prove it by organizing a group purchase of the 'Ok-jangpan' with friends or do something with your mouth and hands."

Additionally, Ok Ju-hyun demanded an apology from Lee Ji-hye, who was double-cast alongside her at the time in the musical "Elisabeth." She expressed anger, saying, "It's quite deep karma to simply overlook cases where a junior colleague who joined after passing the audition and celebrating the 10th anniversary still couldn't overcome the difficult emotions, as well as the production company that has built a 10-year history, suffered defamation and further disgrace."

The "Ok-jangpan" incident dates back four years. Earlier, on June 14, 2022, Kim Ho-young posted on social media, "Asari-pan is old news. Now it's Ok-jangpan." Accompanying the "Ok-jangpan" photo was an image of a "performance hall." This led to speculation that Kim Ho-young had compared Ok Ju-hyun to "Ok-jangpan," raising suspicions of nepotism casting regarding Lee Ji-hye's recruitment for the musical "Elisabeth" at the time. In response, Ok Ju-hyun's side denied the nepotism casting allegations and filed a defamation lawsuit against Kim Ho-young. At that time, YouTuber Lee Jin-ho relayed through a representative of Kim Ho-young that the post had gone viral as an explanation stating it was not aimed at targeting Ok Ju-hyun but was originally intended to help a friend's father sell mattresses and carpets. As the conflict within the musical community escalated, Ok Ju-hyun eventually withdrew her lawsuit against Kim Ho-young, and it was reported that they reconciled.

However, on the 6th, Ok Ju-hyun reignited the "Ok-jangpan" incident by publicly summoning Kim Ho-young on Bubble, saying, "Oh, I can't help but laugh. I thought we had forgotten about 'Ok-jangpan'." In response to a fan's comment stating, "I thought your friend's father's promotion was based on incorrect news, but did you really say that? I'm flustered," Ok Ju-hyun retorted, "'Flustered'? That word doesn't fit in the container. What word could possibly contain it?"
