Busted Bar Bimbo and Former A-Hole Behind Bars for Milking the Late, Great Lee Sun-kyun
Lee Sun-kyun, a renowned actor who sadly passed away, was swindled out of a whopping ₩300 million (roughly $230,000 USD) by a slimy bar hostess and an ex-acting buddy of his. This sleazy duo allegedly used some dirty tricks to pressure Lee, threatening to leak years-old, embarrassing information if he didn't cough up the cash[1][2]. Prosecutors wanted a hefty 7-year sentence for the bar hostess for her role in the blackmail scheme[1][2].
This story got some major attention because it involved a well-known celebrity and was linked to Lee Sun-kyun's demise. Real suspicious, considering he was caught up in some drug-related investigations just before his passing[1].
