'Tastefully Yours' Star Go Min-si Faces School Bullying Allegations — Agency Responds

South Korean actress 'Go Min-si' has strongly denied recent school bullying allegations circulating online and is preparing legal action in response.

On May 26, her agency Mystic Story issued an official statement calling the claims “clearly false and groundless.” The agency added, “We have appointed a legal representative today and have begun reviewing and proceeding with both civil and criminal legal measures.”

The controversy began earlier that day when a post titled “We are the victims of actress Go ○○’s school bullying” appeared on an online community. Though the post didn’t explicitly name the actress, it revealed details such as her former name and age, leading many netizens to speculate that the subject was Go Min-si.

The post accused the actress of bullying several classmates during her middle school years and quickly spread across various online communities and social media platforms.

This is not the first time 'Go Min-si' has faced controversy. In March 2021, a photo of her drinking alcohol as a minor resurfaced online. She apologized at the time via her personal social media, stating, “I recognize that my past behavior was wrong and take full responsibility for my actions.”

Mystic Story concluded their statement by urging the public to refrain from spreading unverified claims. “Speculative reports and indiscriminate sharing of false information can deeply hurt not only the actor but also their family,” they said.

Full Official Statement from Mystic Story:

Hello, this is Mystic Story.

We would like to address the recent claims made anonymously on certain online communities regarding our artist. The content in question is entirely false and groundless.
