He shared his past experience with scams.
Actress Will In Na recently shared an intriguing story about how she became the face of an online scam in the past.
On December 10, Yoo posted a video about her YouTube channel where he interviewed the actor Jung Min Park. During their conversation, the actress brought up an anecdote from when she was in her twenties when she was involved in a romance scam.
At the time, the actress worked part-time in a bar. She recalled that one day a man came into the bar looking for her, calling her Hye Young. When Yoo explained that it wasn’t her name, the man took out his phone to show her photos of Hye Young, but they were all actually photos of Yoo.
“What happened was that an unknown woman had tricked that man with my Cyworld photos,” Yoo explained. But the woman didn’t just catfish, she also swindled the man out of his money. Yoo In Na said she can’t remember the details very well now, but “the amount of damage was approximately 1-2 million KRW.” Given that the incident occurred more than ten years ago, then ₩1 KRW (approximately $0.00 USD) was a significantly larger sum of money.
Yoo In Na recalled that the man was enraged after realizing he had been scammed and immediately contacted the perpetrator. When he threatened to report her to the authorities, the woman panicked and gave him the money back.
Reflecting on the incident, the actress concluded that, although it was not a good experience, it became one of the most unique stories from her past.
