Park Na Rae Announces Temporary Hiatus
On December 8, Park Na Rae addressed the controversy on her personal social media account. The actress first revealed that, in early November, two managers who were once “like family” to her suddenly resigned. She said that because she couldn’t speak directly with them due to circumstances, misunderstandings between both parties reportedly deepened.
In a note posted on Instagram, Park Na Rae revealed that, with the help of mutual acquaintances, she had recently met the former managers and cleared up the situation. Although some misunderstandings were resolved, she expressed deep remorse and said she believes the situation ultimately stemmed from her own shortcomings.

She added that as a public figure whose role is to bring laughter and positivity to others, she could no longer continue her broadcasting activities while surrounded by controversy. Thus, she decided to step away from all programs until the matter is fully settled. Park also issued a public apology to the fans and colleagues who had supported her.
About The Controversy
Earlier, on December 3, Park Na Rae’s former managers filed for a provisional seizure of real estate at the Seoul Western District Court. They claimed that while working for her one-person agency, they were subjected to verbal abuse, physical assault, forced personal errands, proxy medical prescriptions, and non-payment of hosting fees.

On December 5, Park’s agency released a statement denying all allegations. Her side claimed that the ex-managers had worked for about one year and three months, and their severance pay was given accordingly. However, after they quit, they allegedly demanded an additional 10 per cent of the annual revenue of the company. The demand was refused, and they reportedly began to make what Park described as false accusations, prompting her to consider legal actions.
