Singer MC Mong is continuing his heated exposure war for the third day, addressing various allegations surrounding him, including illegal gambling, prostitution, and affairs. He has now gone as far as naming specific media personnel.
During a live broadcast on his personal account on the 20th, MC Mong appeared wearing a mask due to severe mouth sores. He expressed his frustration, saying, “If I don’t do this, my entire life will be gone. I’d have to hide, and I don’t want to do that.”
MC Mong claimed that a group collaborated with malicious criminals to create a negative frame around him. He named specific PDs and reporters, stating, “MBC PDs went to Las Vegas to cover me. They ate at a Chinese restaurant with an associate of Cha Jun-young and conspired.” He emphasized that this is a clear violation of the Anti-Graft Act.
He also expressed outrage regarding a TV Chosun reporter, claiming he received threatening messages suggesting the reporter had gambling receipts. He lamented, “They are trying to make me out to be a prostitution and drug offender.”
He firmly denied allegations that he squandered performance advance payments on gambling debts. “How could a person gamble with kids’ performance fees?” he asked in disgust. He emphasized, “During the Million Market days, I didn’t even use the corporate card and sold my copyrights to pay company salaries. I never missed a single employee’s paycheck.”
Furthermore, he claimed to have captured evidence of women being contacted and offered money to provide false testimony, insisting that all rumors surrounding him are organized fabrications. Regarding his previous mention of famous celebrities, including Kim Min-jong, in relation to illegal gambling circles, he explained, “It was because I saw them acting as connectors during the process of reporting on me.”
While the individuals named have announced strong legal action, claiming the statements are false, MC Mong remains firm. In an interview, he stated, “I only spoke the truth, so if it’s different from the facts, they can take legal action.” He hinted that he possesses concrete evidence, adding that this is “not just a matter of words.”
Recalling the pain of being stigmatized during his past military service controversy despite being found not guilty, he lamented, “They are trying to kill a person again, just like during the military service scandal.” He drew a clear line, stating he has no intention of rehabilitating his image or returning to broadcasting. “I just wanted to explain and refute with my own mouth that what is not true is not true,” he said, signaling a fierce legal battle ahead depending on the other party’s response.
