Actor Lee Joo-been revealed that she was caught up in an investment fraud and even had to appear in court.
Recently, a video titled "With Lee Joo-been" was posted on the YouTube channel "Life 84." The two met at Seoul Land and spent time together.
Lee Joo-been confessed that she worked as a fitting part-timer and said, "It was one of the things a college student could do. Almost 4.5 million won a month. I filmed twice a week. It was 450,000 won each time. If you film twice a week, wouldn't you shoot about four to five times a month? At first it was 30,000 won an hour. There were places that paid 15,000 won, and if you filmed three hours a day it was 90,000 won. I did my own hair and makeup, and I lived alone from age 21, so I used the money I earned from part-time jobs for tuition, living expenses and rent until I started earning money at the company," she said, drawing attention.
Later while eating, the conversation turned to an ID photo Lee Joo-been took in 2017. Lee Joo-been said, "This photo became somewhat famous."
Kian84 laughed and said, "Looking at her face, she doesn't seem like someone who would lie. If this person told me to buy something, I think I would buy it."
Lee Joo-been said, "Someone used my photo for things like pretending to be a counselor and used it in crimes, and they actually committed fraud, so I was contacted by the court. They asked whether I had done investment fraud. They made a fake ID like a resident registration card using this photo."
She added, "They took a photo and sent it saying, 'Trust me and invest.' But the company contacted me. They asked if I knew my photo was being used like this. They said they needed to verify facts and told me to appear, so I had to go to court. It wasn't just one or two people using this photo. It even showed up as a used car dealer's photo," she said, drawing surprise.
