An anonymous post was made online titled, "We are the school bullying victims of Actress Go OO." The author claimed that they attended the same middle school in Daejeon as the actress and made allegations that the actress bullied several students, committed extortion around money and belongings, verbal abuse, and mocked students with disabilities.
The post continued with the author stating, "The actress is promoting in the entertainment industry with no reflection and glamorizing their past as a 'simple mistake.' We do not want an apology or compensation from the actress. We want her to permanently stop promoting so that no further harm occurs." You can read more about the allegations here.
While the post did not specifically name an actress, commenters are deducing that the context clues lead to actress Go Min Si, who is currently starring in the drama 'Tastefully Yours.' Back in 2021, Go Min Si made a public apology after a photo of her drinking while underage was revealed, and acknowledged that it was her in the pictures.
Her agency, MYSTIC STORY, is denying the allegations and shared that they will be taking legal action.

t/n: The post claimed that her name before she changed it to "Go Min Si" was actually "Go Hye Ji."
1. [+1634 / -223] I don't know why this actress rose to fame
2. [+1223 / -153] Would there be smoke if there were no fire...?
3. [+246 / -3] When Go Min Si's Korean age was 17, there was a picture going around of her and her friends with a table filled with alcohol so she uploaded an apology on her Instagram. Seeing that past, I don't think I can rule it out completely ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ
4. [+232 / -3] There were so many rumors, but I was wondering why it was being brushed under the rug. It's now time to get punished
5. [+191 / -9] She went to Yale Beauty Arts High School in Chungbuk ㅎㅎ (t/n: the comment is basically looking down on Go Min Si for attending a trade school)
6. [+179 / -5] If this ends up being true, I hope she doesn't make any more appearances (on screen)
Original Source (X Sports News via Nate): Go Min Si suspected of school bullying...Agency, "Untrue"
1. [+1484 / -33] A few years ago, there was a controversy when pictures of her smoking and drinking came out. They probably got rid of it all
2. [+1370 / -33] Weren't there suspicions of her partaking in school bullying in the past too?
3. [+1193 / -37] I don't trust celebrities ㅋㅋㅋㅋ
4. [+190 / -7] The way she talks and behaves was a bit off
5. [+182 / -4] She also went to a weird high school
ㄴ Why is a beauty trade school weird?
ㄴㄴ A beauty trade school isn't a typical school
6. [+173 / -3] They were hella hyping her up lately
7. [+168 / -5] If the allegations are true, farewell... No wonder her acting seemed realistic....
8. [+158 / -7] The fact that she went to a beauty trade school says it all
9. [+144 / -3] She was well-known. They would call her "hyungsoo-nim." (t/n: hyungsoo-nim is a term used toward the wife of an older brother or older brother figure. It also means "sister-in-law." The comment is essentially indicating that she may have been associated with someone who had a lot of power at the school. Again, all allegations.)
10. [+141 / -5] She went to a weird high school ㅋ
Original Source (TV Report via Nate): "Recognizes wrongdoing" Go Min Si suspected of 'school bullying' → Past underage drinking exposed
1. [+554 / -5] School bullying is unforgivable...
2. [+453 / -5] If there was school bullying, then she's kicked out [of the industry]. For now, I'm going to monitor the situation to see if it's true or false
3. [+303 / -15] ㅜㅜ I liked her. Farewell
4. [+60 / -0] She was well known in Daejeon but the things about school bullying is now coming out?
5. [+48 / -2] Drinking and smoking during your school days is where we draw the line but if it's school bullying, where do you think you're crawling out from?
6. [+46 / -0] I don't know about the rest, but seeing that she went to a beauty trade school, I really thought that she must not have studied at all
7. [+42 / -0] If this ends up being true, don't reflect on it but rather retire
8. [+39 / -0] What is Song Ha Yoon up to lately?.. (t/n: Song Ha Yoon is another actress who was accused of school bullying during the height of her fame from 'Marry My Husband.')
Original Source (Maeil Business via Naver): Rising actress caught up in 'school bullying suspicions'...Agency promptly denies allegations
1. [+1104 / -16] Look up her beauty trade high school days.... she wasn't a student... she's currently cleaning up her identity... it was bound to be exposed one day....
ㄴ [+62 / -2] I've never seen a put together, model student attending a beauty trade school
ㄴ [+21 / -0] Beauty trade high school exists??
ㄴ [+58 / -2] Are people who attend beauty trade high schools students? ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ it's a place where you unwillingly collect a high school diploma
2. [+616 / -9] If this is true, the answer is to kick her out of the entertainment industry. I wonder if she is reflecting on how much harm she caused to the people who suffered from school bullying. She needs to realize how much the past can affect someone's future
3. [+599 / -73] The standard fitting of a leftist celebrity (t/n: this is a political comment and it is criticizing her because she supported impeachment when martial law was declared back in December 2024)
4. [+448 / -4] In the drama, I found her likable because of her gentle image, but if the allegations end up being true, it's very disappointing. We'll have to wait and see what's right or wrong, but school bullying is a serious crime that is unforgivable. If she's in a position where she is living and receiving love from the public, she should remember her wrongdoings even more and I hope it remains with her like a scarlet letter
5. [+333 / -7] The victims are smart. They held off until Go Min Si became popular. Because you're truly ruined when you fall from the highest point.
