Dispatch has released additional material contradicting comedian Park Na-rae’s legal team, who recently stated that “there is nothing illegal about Park Na-rae’s medical treatment.”
According to the outlet, photographs, chat logs, location details, and prescription-related messages all point to clear violations of medical law involving an unlicensed individual known online as the “injection aunt.”
Photos and Messages Suggest Unlicensed Treatment
Among the materials reviewed by Dispatch are:
- Photos of intravenous drips administered inside a private home
- Chat logs showing Park Na-rae stating she would “go to unni’s house for an injection”
- Images of medical equipment stored in a non-medical residential space
Dispatch argues these alone undermine the legal statement claiming “no illegal issues whatsoever.”
Legal Framework: Non-Medical Locations and Unlicensed Procedures
Under Korean Medical Law Article 33, it is illegal to administer medical treatments for payment outside an authorized medical facility. Dispatch notes that:
- The location where Park Na-rae allegedly received injections was an apartment in Ilsan, not a clinic
- The individual known as “injection aunt” is not a licensed physician or nurse, despite listing herself online as a “visiting professor” at a foreign medical school
If the defense attempts to claim “telemedicine,” Article 34 requires the use of approved devices and systems—none of which appear in the images, which instead show a standard carry-on suitcase filled with IV supplies.
Prescription Medication Was Circulated Illegally
The investigation also includes alleged evidence of proxy prescription collecting, including messages such as: “I’m gathering prescriptions so I can prepare a lot.”
One image shows prescription-only psychiatric medication—classified by the MFDS as a psychoneurological agent—referred to as Park Na-rae’s “sleeping pill.” Dispatch stresses that such medication:
- Requires a doctor’s prescription
- Cannot be shared or redistributed
- Must never be given by an unlicensed third party
Mobile IV Drips and Overseas Travel Raise Further Questions
Dispatch claims Park Na-rae even received treatment inside a moving Carnival van, with IV lines visible behind privacy curtains.
Another cited case: after returning from overseas filming in November 2023, Park Na-rae allegedly requested the injection aunt’s presence at the airport, receiving an IV drip in the vehicle en route to MBC.
Under the Waste Control Act, used medical waste must be disposed of through certified channels. If discarded improperly, penalties can include up to two years in prison or ₩20 million in fines.
Not “Common Medical Services,” Says Dispatch
Park Na-rae’s legal team argued that this was simply a standard home-visit service used by many busy patients. Dispatch counters this by pointing to evidence of:
- Injections delivered on-call (“delivery injections”)
- Medication bags hung on doorknobs
- “Delivery complete” photos
- The injection aunt accompanying Park Na-rae overseas during I Live Alone’s Taiwan shoot
A message shown in the report states: “Bring the injection unni. I’m dying. My hangover is so bad!”
The report fully disputes five points made by Park Na-rae’s legal representatives, concluding:
- The treatment was NOT administered by hospital staff
- The injection aunt operated without a license
- The location was NOT a medical facility
- Prescription medication was circulated illegally
- Home-visit injections of this nature are NOT a common or legal service
Dispatch also calls for a criminal investigation into the injection aunt’s activities, including drug sourcing, prescription acquisition, medical waste handling, and alleged cash payments.
Further reporting is expected.
