Nancy Lang is opening up about falling victim to a fraudulent marriage that left her drowning in debt.
The Korean pop artist and New York-based entrepreneur revealed the trauma during a recent YouTube appearance with Korean actress and divorcee Seo Yuri.
Lang admitted she was too traumatized to date for years.
Nancy Lang:
"I couldn’t date properly for a while, but last September, I finally got over my trauma and started asking everyone to set me up on blind dates. I was fine with divorcees, even preferred singles. I thought maybe I could feel more comfortable with someone who’s divorced."
Seo Yuri shared how she paid off massive debt inherited from her ex-husband. Lang revealed a similar story — her ex left her with crippling debt that kept growing for seven years.
Nancy Lang:
"In my case, too, he made me sign papers, and what started as ₩800 million KRW (about $590,000 USD) ballooned over seven years to ₩1.40 billion KRW (about $1.03 million USD) to ₩1.50 billion KRW (about $1.11 million USD)."
Lang added that monthly interest on the debt hit ₩13.0 million KRW (about $9,580 USD).
"Starting from seven years ago, from a mix of first, second, and third-tier lenders."
Despite promises from her ex to fix the paperwork, nothing was done. Lang said she hadn’t even touched the principal amount yet, praising Seo Yuri’s progress on her own debt.
Nancy Lang got married to Wang Jinjin in 2017, but his real name turned out to be Jun Junjoo. Jun had a criminal past tied to the late actress Jang Ja Yeon’s case, including forgery, rape, robbery, fraud, and embezzlement.
Lang announced her divorce in October 2018 after a three-year battle. The fallout left her with over ₩1.5 billion KRW in debt linked to her ex-husband’s fraud.
Lang advised others to be extremely cautious before marriage.
Nancy Lang:
"Check their health, look into how much debt the partner has, and check whether their family is real, if the older or younger sibling, mother, and father a real."
The singer said she never expected to be caught in such a situation but stressed the importance of caution.
As the situation gains traction, fans are rallying behind Nancy Lang’s story of survival and warning others.
Stay tuned for updates on this ongoing personal and legal battle.
