Model Begs For Her Life In Now-Deleted Updates In Apparent Drug Frenzy
What’s happening to MAXIM model Kim Na Jung? Her latest Instagram updates from the Philippines have caused confusion and concern among netizens.
Kim—a 2019 MAXIM contest winner turned “weather forecaster” for the adult content brand whose rise to public fame came with her appearances in No Back Tak Jae Hoon and The Community—took to Instagram Stories in a panic, revealing that she was at the Conrad Hotel in Manila, Philippines, facing immediate danger.
Left: I’m at the Conrad Hotel in Manila. My life is being threatened right now. I’m so scared that I can’t get in a cab to go to the airport. Please help.
Right: (Over the background image of a screenshot showing international text messages asking for a call to be picked up) Please call the Korean embassy for me.
Then, a string of chaotic (and somewhat incomprehensible) updates followed…
(Over the background image of a screenshot showing a ticket for a flight leaving Manila for Incheon at 12:05 PM on November 12) I feel like I’m going to die if I get on this flight. I’m going to die if I leave Manila. The airport is not safe. I’m at the airport in Manila. Please help me…

…in one of which she admitted to having used drugs while in Manila, leading to “delusions.”
Last night, the 11 o’clock Korean Air flight from Manila to Incheon was delayed to depart at 12:05. It was late at night, and the airport crew, passengers, and immigration officers were all filming me. It was like the Truman Show. To make sure I’m not roped into a drug trafficking scheme, I abandoned all of my bags and luggages and left without getting on the Korean Air flight. I know I’m going to die if I get on a plane. South Korea, please help me. I admit to having used drugs in the Philippines. Because of that, I’m having delusions. I have a feeling that I’m going to die one way or another, so I can’t get on a flight.

Her final update hinted at her boarding a flight to Korea.
I want to go back to Korea…

I’m boarding the flight now…

Kim’s Stories were then deleted, while her followers remain concerned for her well-being. Kim has not shared updates since.
Meanwhile, Star News reported that a Korean Air flight from Manila to Incheon scheduled to depart at 11:20 PM on November 11, 2024 was, in fact, delayed—though it was only delayed by about 30 minutes due to “aircraft connection issues” and took off at 11:54 PM. Kim’s ticket, as shown in one of the screenshots, was for a flight departing on November 12, 2024 in the afternoon.
