Song Ha Yoon's school bullying case: Alleged victim accuses actress of using 'malicious media tactics' to frame her
Song Ha Yoon's alleged victim of a school bullying case, referred to as Oh, is back with a third statement. On July 7, KST, Oh took to an online discussion portal and explained the entire incident from her point of view, as reported by Allkpop. She also blamed the actress for trying to use illicit means to force their side of the narrative around and make Oh look bad. Through this, Oh showed that she had no intentions of settlement outside court. Song Ha Yoon's accuser blames actress for using media to change the case narrative Oh's third public statement was titled "I am the victim of Song Ha Yoon' s school vi*lence." She claimed that "Song's side is using malicious media tactics to frame me as a criminal and shift the focus" and explained that "what the public truly wants to know is why Song Ha Yoon was transferred, and whether it was due to school vi*lence." The issue was primarily based on whether the Marry My Husband actress bullied Oh at school. However, as per Oh, the accused was trying to highlight whether or not the alleged victim was a wanted cr*minal in South Korea. Song Ha Yoon's accuser reveals possessing alleged evidence against her Oh said, "There is consistent testimony from numerous classmates and witnesses that Song was forcibly transferred from Banpo High School to Gujeong High School not voluntarily, but as a result of disciplinary action (Measure No. 8 – Forced Transfer) after being identified as a perpetrator in a group assault." The actress, however, denied the claims, calling them false. Song Ha Yoon's alleged victim to press charges of defamation against actress for spread of falsehood Oh once again stressed that her unavailability to attend police summons in South Korea was solely because of residing in the US, and the inconveniences it would cause her to travel to another nation for questioning. Claiming Song Ha Yoon's claims of Oh being on a wanted list as unfounded, she stated, "Equating a summons with being a fugitive is a malicious distortion of the facts intended to frame me as a criminal. Such claims constitute defamation, and I will pursue legal action."

Song Ha Yoon's accuser asks actress to stop 'manipulating public,' reveals reason for not answering police summons
A woman identified as Ms Oh has issued a lengthy rebuttal after Song Ha Yoon's legal team filed a complaint against her. She previously accused the actress of school bullying. Background of the controversy On July 2, actress Song Ha Yoon 's legal team revealed that the actress had officially filed a criminal complaint against Ms Oh. The legal representatives stated that Song had collected various forms of evidence in the past year to challenge the claims. The actress had submitted them to the police. The case, which first surfaced in 2024, gained renewed attention following this legal move. Ms Oh breaks silence Shortly after news of the complaint emerged, Ms Oh issued a detailed statement on an online community. This marks her first public response in over a year. Identifying herself as a U.S. citizen of Korean descent, she claimed that she had already submitted a written statement to Korean authorities along with a copy of her passport. Contrary to reports, she denied refusing to cooperate with police and clarified that she has not been placed on any wanted list. Clarifies her legal and citizenship status She also addressed the confusion over her nationality. Ms Oh explained that although she has acquired U.S. citizenship, her Korean citizenship remains intact for administrative convenience. It's because the process to renounce it is not automatic. She emphasized that this had no bearing on the legal dispute. Ms Oh also noted that she has been residing in the U.S. since 2017 and has not returned to Korea since. Explains refusal to appear in person She pushed back against criticism that she did not appear in Korea for questioning. According to Ms Oh, the expectation to travel abroad at her own expense, despite being the alleged victim, is 'excessive and unreasonable.' She said she has already provided sufficient written evidence and remains reachable for further communication. Forcing her to appear physically, she argued, would infringe on her legal rights. Denies reports of being 'Wanted' Ms Oh also took issue with claims that she had been designated as a 'wanted' individual. She stressed that no such official label had been communicated to her. She claimed that the investigation had only been temporarily suspended, not escalated to involve travel bans or warrants. 'Therefore, the claim that I am on such a list is exaggerated or inaccurate,' she stated. Questions Song Ha Yoon's school transfer One of the core arguments Ms Oh presented was regarding Song Ha Yoon 's school history. She explained, 'I would like to clarify that Banpo High School and Gujeong High School belong to the same school district, making a regular transfer between them impossible. If not for a disciplinary action such as school violence, such a transfer could not have taken place.' She said this supports her allegation that Song's transfer was a result of misconduct, not personal choice. Reasserts her claims are truthful Ms Oh reiterated that the events she described, specifically physical assaults by Song, had been shared publicly on JTBC's Crime Chief. The claims were verified by the program's producers. She argued that her statements were 'factual and truthful,' and fell within her right to defend herself publicly. Plans for legal action In conclusion, Ms Oh revealed she is currently in talks with a Korean law firm and preparing to take civil and criminal action if necessary. She criticized, 'I believe that Song Ha Yoon is using this case to cover up her own past misconduct and to shift the blame onto me.' 'I strongly urge Song Ha Yoon and her representatives to immediately stop making excessive legal threats and manipulating public opinion,' she stated. She vows to protect her rights and reveal more as the case progresses.
