Fed-Up Actress Snaps At Korean Press Calling Her “Peak Luxury”
Has actress Han Ga In had enough? Her latest Instagram Stories update hinted at uncontainable frustration at the Korean press picking her apart over her fashion.
On February 28, 2025 (KST), Tenasia reported on what the actress wore on the set of You Quiz On The Block. The Korean article listed the brands of her clothes and accessories and the price of each item, bringing attention to the total cost of her fashion. Because such articles about celeb fashion aren’t unusual, the Tenasia article in question also came across as harmless at first glance.
However, the headline carried a certain tone…
From ₩19.0 million KRW (about $13,000 USD) Earrings To ₩6.30 million KRW (about $4,310 USD) Necklace… Actress Han Ga In Drapes Herself In Tens of Millions, Peak Luxury
— Tenasia
…one that could be interpreted as malicious and almost ridiculing the actress for how expensive her outfit was. Given the slight backlash that Han Ga In had faced for one of her now-deleted YouTube videos (in which she highlighted her life as an affluent mom who could afford to put her children through a lot of extracurricular activities), Korean readers could tell the “stab” at her rich-and-famous-ness.
In response, the actress shared a screenshot of the headline and addressed it head-on. With a frustrated sigh, Han Ga In snapped at the press and clarified that her outfit was sponsored and that she didn’t own any of the accessories mentioned.
Sigh…… All of these things were sponsored for me… I don’t actually own any of them…
— Han Ga In
Meanwhile, Han Ga In revealed on the said You Quiz On The Block episode that she suffered three miscarriages in one year. Read more about her harrowing experience here:
