Go Min-si Faces New Controversy Amid School Violence Allegations
Actress Go Min-si has found herself at the center of controversy once again, this time regarding shocking allegations of school violence. While she previously acknowledged and apologized for her underage drinking incident during her school years, she has firmly denied the recent claims of bullying, stating they are "completely unfounded," suggesting a potential battle over the truth.
In May 2021, Go Min-si was embroiled in a scandal when a photo surfaced online showing her posing with a bottle and glass of alcohol during her teenage years. At that time, she took to social media to express her remorse, saying, "I sincerely apologize for causing concern regarding my underage drinking photos."
Go Min-si admitted, "There is no denying that the person in the photo is me," acknowledging her past actions and taking responsibility for them. She expressed her regret to those affected by her behavior and promised to pursue a more mature and correct path moving forward.
Fast forward to 2025, individuals claiming to be her middle school classmates posted a message on an online community titled "Victims of Actor Go OO's School Violence." They alleged that Go OO (presumed to be Go Min-si) engaged in physical assaults, extortion, and verbal abuse against multiple peers, including specific and shocking claims of mocking disabled students, theft, and leading bullying.
The alleged victims stated they do not seek any apology or compensation from Go OO but are demanding that she permanently cease her activities to prevent further harm.
Netizens speculated that the actor in question is Go Min-si based on the name change, past photos, and her previous underage drinking controversy.
In response, Go Min-si's agency, Mystic Story, acknowledged the allegations on the 26th, stating, "We are aware of the claims made in the online community. However, after confirming with the actress, we strongly deny the allegations of school violence as unfounded." The agency emphasized that they will protect the actress's reputation through an official statement.
Having previously apologized for her underage drinking, Go Min-si now faces more serious allegations of school violence, which could significantly impact her positive public image. Currently, she is active in the Genie TV drama 'Your Taste' and has upcoming projects like the Netflix series 'Honey Job,' making the repercussions of this controversy even more pronounced.
The school violence allegations present a stark contrast to the agency's strong denial, with the specific details provided by the alleged victims clashing with the claims of Go Min-si's agency. While her positive image may be at risk due to these controversies, many voices are urging caution against hasty judgments, as the truth remains unclear.
