Actress Go Min-si, who’s currently riding high thanks to her role in Tastefully Yours, is suddenly caught up in a pretty serious controversy. She’s being linked to school bullying claims, and while her agency’s strongly denying everything, the issue just keeps gaining traction online.
On May 26th, a post titled “We are victims of actress Go OO’s school bullying” popped up in an online community. The writer, claiming to be a middle school classmate, accused “Go OO” of all kinds of stuff—like school violence, stealing, verbal abuse, and even mocking disabled students. The post said she “used her group of delinquent friends and outsiders to commit violence, habitually stealing classmates’ belongings and money, then bragging and mocking them.” It also said, “Despite this, she continues her activities without remorse, romanticizing her past as a simple mistake. We hope she ceases her activities to prevent further harm.”
Even though the post didn’t directly say a name, it gave some pretty telling clues—like “born early 1995” and “formerly named Go Hye-ji.” That led a lot of netizens to believe the post was about Go Min-si, and from there, it just exploded. People even started bringing up her school background and speculating about her political views, which stirred up more harsh comments.
But not everyone’s jumping to conclusions. Some peoples are saying things like, “It’s dangerous to speculate on real names without clear evidence,” and urging caution until more facts come out.
Mystic Story, her agency, responded quickly with an official statement: “The allegations are clearly false and baseless.” They added, “We believe the actress, and we have no idea who the post’s author is.” They also said, “After confirming with the actress herself, we have determined that the school bullying is not true, and we are already preparing civil and criminal legal action by appointing legal representatives.”
Still, just denying it might not be enough. With specifics like her old name and school years mentioned, it’s totally possible someone else who actually knew her might come forward. And if the claims aren’t true, her side’s gotta provide solid proof—fast—if they wanna change public opinion.
Making things trickier, people have started bringing up her 2021 controversy again—when a photo of her drinking as a minor went viral. Back then, she owned up to it, saying on social media, “I reflect on my wrongful actions.” That moment is now being reexamined in light of this current situation.
With Tastefully Yours doing really well, this scandal could seriously impact her career if it keeps growing. Either way, a clear and quick response feels more important now than ever.
