Actress Go MinSi and Lee Do Hyun's appearance in the next film due to ”bullying allegations” ended in failure... Shin Sia takes over

Actress Go MinSi, who has been embroiled in allegations of school violence (bullying), ultimately failed to secure a role in 'Grand Galaxy Hotel'.

The new drama 'Grand Galaxy Hotel' is a romantic fantasy that depicts a special story unfolding after the president of a hotel that has maintained the top customer satisfaction rating for decades among memorial hotels around the world selected by the Grim Reapers goes missing.

　Initially, actors Lee Do-hyun and Go MinSi were considered for the lead roles, but Lee Do-hyun and actress Shin Si-a were ultimately cast.

Earlier this year in May, a post titled “Actor Go XX, the victims of bullying” was uploaded to an online community.

The author of the post, A, stated, "Go has been bullying numerous friends since middle school, extorting money and valuables, verbal abuse, and mocking and threatening students with disabilities as a daily routine.“ They further claimed, ”She mobilized both the bullying group within the school and external bullying groups to make bullying a daily routine, habitually taking classmates' belongings and money, and boasting about it or mocking them, demonstrating severe ethical flaws."

　A did not mention Go's real name, but speculation arose that it was Go MinSi, who became embroiled in bullying allegations.

　In response, Go MinSi's agency, MYSTIC STORY, stated, “The claims (of bullying) raised in some online communities under the premise of anonymity are clear falsehoods and have no basis in fact.” They added, “We express deep concern and regret over the damage to the reputation of our affiliated actor caused by malicious posts based on false facts.”

　They further stated, “We have appointed legal counsel today and are proceeding with the consideration and implementation of civil and criminal legal measures.” They also requested, “Unverified speculative reports and the dissemination of such information can cause deep emotional harm not only to the actor but also to their family. We kindly ask that you refrain from reckless dissemination and sharing of such information.”

　Meanwhile, attention immediately turned to Go MinSi's withdrawal from 'Grand Galaxy Hotel'. The agency explained, “We decided that it would be better to first resolve the current issue rather than force the filming to continue while the bullying issue remains unresolved. After amicable discussions with the production team, we decided to withdraw from the project.”

　Meanwhile, 'Grand Galaxy Hotel' is a work that continues the worldview of the Hong sisters, who wrote 'My Girlfriend Is a Nine-Tailed Fox', 'The Sun of the Lord', 'Flower Journey', and 'Hotel Deluna', with filming scheduled to begin in the second half of 2025.
