TWICE's Nayeon dragged into a debt dispute accused of owing over 600 million in 12 years! Court ruling revealed!
Mr. A, a former boyfriend of Nayeon's mother from the girl group TWICE, filed a lawsuit in court, claiming that he had supported Nayeon with more than 600 million Korean won over 12 years. He demanded repayment from Nayeon but ultimately lost the case in the trial.
According to legal insiders, Mr. A has filed a loan lawsuit against Na Lan and her mother at the Eastern District Court of Seoul. While the court acknowledged that Mr. A transferred more than 500 million Korean Won to Na Lan over 12 years, it did not consider there to be enough evidence to establish it as a loan.
According to the judgment, Mr. A had remitted 5,359,082,750 Won to Nayeon from August 2004 to June 2016 over a period of 12 years. In addition, Nayeon and her mother used a credit card under Mr. A's name to charge 1,156,120,930 Won from March 2009 to February 2015, over six years. Nayeon later made her debut as a member of TWICE in October 2015.
In January of last year, Mr. A filed a lawsuit against Nayeon and her mother, "At the request of Nayeon's mother, I lent her living expenses. She promised to repay me once Nayeon debuted as a singer, but Nayeon broke the agreement." Two of Mr. A's friends also testified, "Mr. A said that Nayeon would repay him after her debut."
Although the court acknowledged that Mr. A has provided 600 million KRW to Nayeon during the past 12 years, it believes, "There's no evidence to prove that this is a loan. Given the frequency, duration, amount, and process of the monetary transactions, it's hard to recognize a promise of repayment between Mr. A and Nayeon. Mr. A and Nayeon's mother were in a romantic relationship at the time, it's impossible to determine this as a loan. From a nominal perspective, it looks like rent, phone bill, loan, tuition, etc., thus it can just be considered as everyday living expense support."
