Broadcaster Park Na-rae, who suspended activities amid allegations of power abuse and controversy over illegal medical procedures involving an "injection aunt," is engaged in a battle of truths with her former managers, and another exposé has surfaced, spreading the controversy.
On the 13th, Dispatch obtained former manager A's medical visit confirmation and messenger conversations and reported various errands said to have been requested during past work processes.
According to the report, Park Na-rae is alleged to have requested that a manager waiting at the airport retrieve a luxury bag from her Itaewon residence even though she had already cleared immigration for filming the I Live Alone Taiwan episode. The manager is said to have exited the airport through a so-called "reverse immigration" procedure that canceled the exit screening, taken the bag that had been placed in front of the master bedroom bathroom in the residence, and then returned to the airport.
The part former managers particularly criticized was the claim of "proxy prescriptions at the obstetrics and gynecology clinic." They claimed that at Park Na-rae's request they obtained medication prescribed for someone else and released the messenger conversations and medical visit confirmation from that time.
In the released messages, manager A told colleague manager B, "They asked me to buy medication at the obstetrics and gynecology clinic. It has to be taken before the recording," and B replied, "So I have to receive the medical consultation, right?" expressing discomfort about leaving her medical record. A reportedly answered, "Ask them to make sure no record remains. I'm sorry I should have gone," according to the report. The former managers say such proxy prescriptions were actually carried out and that there were later transfers from Park Na-rae to cover the cost of the medicine.
If true, such acts could be punishable as violations of the Medical Service Act. When asked why they disclosed the matter despite this, the former managers explained, "There was great pressure to protect the entertainer," and "It wasn't easy to refuse because of the employment relationship." In particular, an unmarried manager said, "I was afraid of leaving medical records that could affect my private life in the future."
The former managers also claim they handled other tasks such as booking a health checkup for Park Na-rae's younger brother, scheduling plastic surgery for an acquaintance of her mother, and running errands for snacks and alcohol at private drinking gatherings.
This exposé came as legal disputes between Park Na-rae and her former managers were becoming full-scale, prompting interpretations from some quarters about "why this story was brought up now." The former managers responded, "There are things only the parties involved would know," and "Please don't speak as if you know everything just because someone cried during a call."
Meanwhile, Park Na-rae's side is known to be pursuing legal measures regarding the related allegations, and attention is focused on whether they will make any additional statements about the latest claims.
