The netizen squad has done it again, and this time they’ve discovered a celebrity that did charity work overseas with a rotten attitude.
On the 5th, Chosun Journal released a special article titled “he Lights and Shadows of Celebrity Charity Wor and reported that a female actress named ‘A’ went on a 5-night, 6-day relief effort overseas in central Asia earlier this year by suggestion of a magazine company.
She flew in on business class and stayed inside a hotel upon arrival, only going out to visit the poverty-stricken children when cameras were rolling. An associate of someone at the scene revealed, “A-ssi brought her manager, stylist, as well as makeup and hair artists, who also arrived on business seats. She refused to come out of her hotel and ate only food that she brought from Korea, separate from everyone else. On the last day, her manager came down and asked us to find sashimi sushi for her.”
One of the scheduled plans was to create a meal for the children herself. Unfortunately, she cut her finger in the middle of cooking, forcing her stylists to step forward and heat up instant rice packages. They ended up feeding the children instant rice with curry on top.
‘A’ also smoked around the kids frequently. “Someone at the scene had to ask her to smoke elsewhere, that’s how bad it got. I think that she mistook the charity work for some kind of fashion photoshoot.”
The actress soon returned home to Korea and the segment was released the next month in the magazine with her statement, “I shared the pain of the children as we fed each other.” Pictures of ‘A’ caressing the children were on the next page.
Netizens immediately set out to find the name of the actress in question by searching key phrases and criticizing the journal for not releasing the actress’s name. The keys that the netizens used to unlock the mystery were the time frame, the schedule, the fact that she has an upcoming drama, and a photoshoot by a famous photographer named B.
Netizens quickly narrowed it down to one actress that released a photo spread in a famous fashion magazine of her charity work in central Asia earlier this year. The actress in question? Netizens believe that she is Lee Mi Yeon, of ‘Addicted‘ fame.
The netizens have proven once again that nothing can be hidden from them. They concluded the search by expressing their disappointment with Lee in ruining the heartfelt images of charity work that other stars worked so hard to build up.

Date: 2010-09-05 03:02 pm (UTC)I'm not angry at the netizens, but that someone would do that. Seriously, so what if you are famous, when you do charity work it helps if you are actually charitable

I'm disgusted. Poverty isn't a trend, nor is it cool to do charity work half-assed. If you're gonna do it, at least try to help, jfc D8
