Amid news that actress Han So-hee's mother was arrested for opening and operating more than 10 illegal gambling centers, Han So-hee's family history is also being re-examined.

According to TV Chosun on the 2nd, prosecutors arrested Han So-hee's mother, a woman in her 50s, on charges of opening an illegal gambling center.

Shin is accused of operating 12 game halls in Ulsan and Wonju from 2021 to the end of last month with the so-called 「Baji Boss」. Users reportedly accessed the gambling site where Shin was the distributor, charged game money, and played baccarat-like gambling. Shin is said to have a history of paying fines once on the same charges.



Shin is also known to have gone into hiding in 2020 with cash, and has also been embroiled in a so-called 'debt controversy'. In 2022, Shin borrowed a total of 85 million won from February 2018 to September of the same year, saying he would give 2 million won per month to his acquaintance, but news broke that he was sued for not paying back.

Whenever there is a related story with her mother, Han So-hee's family history is also mentioned. At the time of the 2020 'Debt Too Controversy', Han So-hee said "My parents got divorced around the age of five, so my grandmother raised me" and "I've lived with my grandmother ever since I transferred to Ulsan, where my mother is as soon as I entered high school."



At the same time, "I learned about my mother's debt after the age of 20, and since I was a daughter of a grandmother who raised me and a child, I paid off my mother's debt even before my debut."

In 2022, when news broke that Shin was sued for default, his agency 9 Aoto Entertainment explained that his mother used a bank account in the name of Han So-hee in the process of borrowing money. 9Ato Entertainment said, "My mother opened a bank account arbitrarily when Han So-hee was a minor and used the bank account to borrow money (without Han So-hee's knowledge)." he said.



"Han So-hee reveals that she has no plans to take responsibility for related debts at all," he said, stressing that "I feel sorry for those who unintentionally suffered damage, but I hope this will not be repeated anymore due to a strong response."
