Actress Cha Young-ok, who has been with the company for 31 years, has lost all her assets and is living in seclusion.

On the 30th, on the MBN educational program ‘Special World’, Cha Young-ok was helping out at her younger brother‘s store.

Her younger brother said, “Why are you suffering like this? If you had thought about what I said when I told you to stop, you wouldn’t have caused such a big deal.”

She continued, “You should think about your age. If you can‘t make your own judgment, shouldn’t you have listened to me, your younger brother? In a way, it‘s your own fault. You should live wisely from now on. If I ever meet that guy, I want to beat him to death.”

Cha Young-ok then blamed herself, saying, “I’m crazy because I‘m blinded by love,” and confessed that she had a late-blooming love with a man she met at a gathering 7 years ago. Despite his siblings’ opposition, he loved her enough to promise to marry her, but he betrayed him greatly.

He said, “I was so obsessed that I couldn‘t get out of it. That person was really sweet-talking me. He said he was the CEO of a construction company and sent me a picture of his bankbook with 30 billion won in it.” He said, “If I lend him 60 million won, he’ll increase it from 100 million to 120 million won in a month, and he told me to put it in someone else‘s bankbook. If it were someone else, I would have thought, ’Why would someone with that much money ask to borrow money?‘ I didn’t suspect anything and just thought, ‘I’m going to get married anyway.‘” He explained the situation at the time, losing all his assets and living in seclusion. “It’s been five years since I started suing in October 2019. My apartment and real estate are all gone. If you take interest into account, it‘s over 500 million won. It’s about 600 million won,” he said.

Cha Young-ok said, “This is the first time in my life that I‘ve felt so betrayed by someone. It’s not just that they deceived me. They ruined my body and mind, and even my property. It‘s so embarrassing to think about it,” shedding tears.

Cha Young-ok appeared in the dramas ‘Temptation of a Wife’, ‘Fairy of the King’, and the movies ‘7 Princesses Designated Driver’, ‘Clump Sugar’, ‘Family’s Honor’.
