Something feels very wrong.
But since this is how the law works, it’s a reality I have no choice but to follow.
I’ll be fine, though. I know many of you are worried, but please don’t worry. I’ll do well.
I swear to tell only the truth, exactly as it is.
And I’ll be watching closely to see just how good your acting is.

In November 2025, Nana experienced a home invasion while staying with her mother. A man in his 30s, identified as Man A, is accused of breaking into Nana’s residence in Acheon-dong, Guri, Gyeonggi Province, and attempting to commit robbery. It was reported that Man A threatened Nana and her mother—allegedly choking them and demanding money—causing injuries during the process.
However, he was subdued at the scene, and the crime ultimately remained an attempted offense. The case was later sent to trial, but during the first hearing in January 2026, Man A denied most of the charges. His legal representative claimed, “He entered believing the home was empty and only intended to steal valuables. There was no intent to commit robbery. He was not carrying a weapon and was instead unilaterally assaulted.”
Police Make Decision On Attempted Murder Charges Against Nana
I encountered Nana’s mother in the living room. When she screamed, I only held her by wrapping my arm around her shoulder—I did not choke her. When I let go, thinking things had calmed down, Nana came out of the room and rushed at me, swinging a weapon.
The bag I brought only contained tools and a shopping bag. The weapon was from Nana’s house.
— Man A
The court has identified whether Man A possessed a weapon and whether assault occurred as key issues, and has called Nana and her mother as witnesses. The idol, who had previously postponed her court appearance due to official schedules, has now coordinated her attendance and will take the stand as a witness on April 21.
That all said, netizens are rallying behind Nana who now has to confront Man A in court when she and her mom were victimized of his actions. Comments slammed the Korean law for being written for the perpetrators and not protecting the victims.
- Why are they forcing the victim to attend in the first place? Why assume the victim would be mentally okay? This is basically forcing someone to act like they’re fine.
- “If this were the U.S., he would’ve been shot.”
- “Wow.”
- “Are the judges calling Nana in just because they want to see a celebrity IRL?”
- “Seriously, change the law.”
- “This is a real problem. HE broke into someone’s home to harm them. He doesn’t get to complain. He should be glad he didn’t die on the spot.”
- “These outdated laws need to be revised.”
- “Feels like the judge is just calling her in because he wants to see his favorite celebrity.”
- “She’s going through so much…”
- “The law is BS…”
- “Because of ‘criminals’ rights,’ the victims are the ones who end up feeling like criminals.”
