The best defense is a good offense? Park Shi Hoo’s new lawyer seems to subscribe to that philosophy because this morning it was revealed that Park Shi Hoo has filed a lawsuit at the Seoul Seobu (Western) Police station against his alleged rape victim A for blackmail, against A’s supposed best friend B for defamation, and against the director of his former management agency Eyagi. Talk about hitting three birds with one very large stone. Apparently Park Shi Hoo was the one who fired his last lawyer (not the other way around), because of some advice given that Park Shi Hoo did not agree with. Hhhhmmm, wondering what that could be? I’m not sure why he’s filing a civil suit at the police station when it ought to be at the courthouse but this will surely throw more fuel into the fire. There have been rumors bandied about that the entire rape allegation was one big conspiracy orchestrated by Park Shi Hoo’s former agency Eyagi, which was pissed that he left them in January to start his own agency Hoo Factory. Once again, this is not an impossibility, but K-stars change agencies ALL THE TIME (most recently Hyun Bin and Shin Mina starting their own agency, as well as Kang Ji Hwan), so the chances that disgruntled agencies are out there trying to destroy the lives and careers of their departed stars strikes me as rather far-fetched but that’s just my 2 cents. The blackmail charge against A stems from the alleged text messages where B discusses A can get money from Park Shi Hoo, the defamation charge against B is for the interview given last week containing explicit details of the supposed rape, and I’m not sure what evidence bolsters his charge against Eyagi for conspiring to set him up for the rape charge.
There are now more specific details of the alleged rape contained in A’s police complaint. She claimed Park Shi Hoo raped her twice, and the rape kit sample taken from her has detected the presence of male semen. Both Park Shi Hoo and K were swabbed on Friday so that the police can determine if one or both of these men are the source of the male semen found on A. I’m not sure confirming Park Shi Hoo’s semen sample on A does anything since he already confirmed sleeping with A. It would be very telling if a sample of K’s semen was also found in A, since he’s not made any confession that he also slept with her. In fact, K claimed that he lived on the outskirts of Seoul so that is why he crashed at Park Shi Hoo’s place that night. I’m a little amused that if Park Shi Hoo is telling the truth that it was a consensual sexual encounter, that would mean he and A slept together in his room while K crashed on the sofa outside. How very titillating. K claimed that A’s allegation that he groped her the next morning was the result of him returning the bedding and linens back to Park Shi Hoo’s bedroom before leaving. LOL, please will someone tell me how a person can mistake “groping and molestation” as A claimed with K’s “excuse me while I put the comforter on the bed”. Also, hello where’s the bro code on this one? Why would K walk into the bedroom to return bed linen when there is a possibility Park Shi Hoo and A was inside doing god know’s what? Ever heard of folding it neatly on the sofa and leaving discreetly? This really is like a very poorly written episode of Law and Order: SVU (K-star edition).
So the most recent casting for this drama is now confirmed as the final selection…
So there is a popularity award in both the film and the television sections of…
I have such a soft spot for C-actress Yang Mi and it just makes me…
So Queen of Tears was filmed in 2023 and wrapped awhile ago so it's not…
I think viewers are being either honest or stingy with their votes but the latest…
Oh what a great surprise! This drama was announced two years ago and I've long…

This circus ride deserves bananas lol
Because this is nuts and made for monkeys
I agree that this surely throws more fuel into the fire.
But, is it supposed to control or stop that fire? Everyone involved gets burned pretty bad already. Somehow I see this rather suicidal. I don't think it's the time to open more battlefields and create more enemies.
I agree. I think he got the countersue charges wrong too lol. Should it be, A for defamation, B for conspiracy and old Agency for malicious intent/maybe emotional blackmail? I read somewhere(allkpop) though that his old agency was trying to intervene on his behalf why they got tangled on this mess. But really the incredulity of this mess is bananas.
Koala, you had me here: Law and Order: SVU (K-star edition). OMG HAHAHA.
I will withhold judgment, but this seriously is turning out to be a Kdrama all on it's own (except it's real!)
Hahahahaha I am cracking up with that sentence....law and order...buajajajajaha
I just hope the truth seeks its way out...
Ms Koala, please correct me if the following is wrong. I am seeking your legal expertise.
I read somewhere that in Korea the accuser is not permitted to reveal any details with regard to the case. If this is true, it explains why A has stayed quiet so far. But now she became the accused, therefore she is set free to release relevant information. Also, being the accused person, she is now entitled to a lawyer. So exactly what does PSH's side gain from suing her? They may gain one but lose two. Net-net, it's a loss.
I have to comment on this one: hahahahaha! I mean this really deserves a good laughter.
Well, I'm glad more detail is out but will wait for all detail on what really happened.
As far fetched as the whole agency set up thing is, i cant say id be too shocked. Kwon sang woo was threatened by a known mobster over agency madness. Even Kang ji hwan who u mentioned got sued for tons of money when he tried to leave. Of course framing someone for rape just cause they try to leave is beyond heinous but im learning that messing with what people think is their money can cause them to go nuts and cross lines waaaaaaay past the bounds of human decency
Anyhu, the whole situation is nuts. Even if justice is served, the victim (God knows who that is) will likely never be the same again
Whoa! really, never knew that. Korean mobster? Some people take anger to a new level, what a shame.
Yeah, I was thinking the same thing, didn't Kang Ji Hwan's previous agent sue him and prevent him from doing a drama (Faith?) ?
But I'm not saying the same thing happened here. PSH lawsuit does make the idea note probable. Or it could be a tactic to make it seem so.. showbiz is weird.
It happened to Kang Ji Hwan twice and the blast agency tried to ban him from taking anymore acting roles and claimed he owed them money.
I recently read that Lee Mi Sook was ordered to pay her old agency money when she left it in '02 (I think)
*last
I'm not saying it's impossible but I have some questions. Even his agency is acting as a child and wants to destroy him for revenge (what do they gain from it?), they would still wait until Alice in Ch.... being sold to China and Japan so they can get their share of the pie (worth 4 billion won) then crush him after. After all, they are in this business for the money.
Hope i'm wrong but somehow i feel this case wil resolved without any charges against all parties eventhough in the true judicial process of such cases should be the guilty one jailed. But things for sure is while their career damage also their lives will feel the same as in prison. Very unfortunate & disappointing due to one fault overnight pleasure their reputations also gone.
I know this is a serious matter, but "clowns piling into a mini police car" comes to mind with this one.
People do stupid stuff when they are angry. Thus in this case Park Shi Hoon did leave his old agency to start his own. I don't want to stereotype but the Korean Industry is Cut throat and they seem to have all the power when it comes to status. Thus I hope Park Shi Hoon Sue the heck out of that company along with that A and B person, or who else was involve in this rape case.
right, koala! i wrote the same thing (other words) somewhere, about kim
no way to believe that blanket story.
one more detail: with this story, k confirm (indirectly) that A was unconscious
but, long way till the end and the truth. let's wait the justice
i'm curios, k has the same lawyer as psh??
@keepcalm, How did "k confirm (indirectly) that A was unconscious"?
So is D,E,F,G etc going to join this lawsuit soon too?.
I guess so, if "good offendings" are the only means to defend him.
Then he needs to hire more lawyers to run this strategy.
