Actress Kim Hye-soo Denies Rumors



Actress Kim Hye-soo, 38, denied rumors concerning her relationships.

SidusHQ, Kim's agency, officially rejected rumors of Kim having relationships with a yakuza boss or trot singer Na Hoon-a on Thursday.

Kim is a popular actress who starred in the movies ``A Good Day to Have an Affair'' and ``11th Mother'' last year. She won the Best Actress award at Blue Dragon Awards for her role in ``Tazza: The High Rollers'' in 2006.

Na, 61, is a renowned trot singer who began his singing career in 1960s. He starred in movies in the 1980s and released many hit songs. But he disappeared after canceling a concert March 2007.

Rumor has it that Kim is the mistress of a yakuza boss in Korea and entered into an illicit relationship with Na, which resulted in the yakuzas harming Na.

The rumor spread like a wildfire through the Internet. Kim believed the rumor has damaged her reputation and decided to deny the misunderstandings.

According to the press release, Kim met Na only once when she was hosting a talk show named ``Kim Hye-soo Plus You.'' The program was cancelled in 2000.

Another actress involved in the rumor, Kim Sun-a, 33, also denied her relationship with the trot singer in a telephone interview with an Internet news agency.

The police secretly investigated the yakuza-related rumor and concluded that the rumor was groundless. However, Na's is confirmed to be in Korea.

The alleged "harming" was that the Yakuza sliced off his wang, resulting in his disappearance for the past year...he stood on a table during a press conference and unzipped his pants in defiance, telling the crowd that if they didn't believe him, he'd whip it out for all to see.

The rumours about dating the yakuza boss have been around for years. The first I heard of it was around 2001-ish.

when they say Yazuka they are tallking about japanese gangsters right?

why would kim hye soo be dating a gangster then want to have a fling with NA who is almost 70? doesnt make any sense... reporters in korea are notorious for making stuff up.. they need to sell papers and so they go after celebrities all the time and make stuff up.,..

But he didn't whip it out, did he? If he still has it why didn't he show it? He was bluffing, that's why.

Personally, I think the Yakuza whacked his PP, not that I really give a rip. Bottom line is don't mess with the mob, Japanese or otherwise.

Many yakuza are actually ethnic Koreans or Chinese.
