Seo Min Jae is embroiled in a harsh legal battle after her explosive pregnancy announcement turned into a full-blown defamation fight.
The Heart Signal star, also known as Seo Eun Woo, revealed in May 2025 on Instagram that she was pregnant by boyfriend Jung Rae Sung. She claimed he ghosted her, making the announcement a public “callout.”
Jung, son of a major corporate executive, pushed back with a legal statement on August 8, denying claims he ghosted Seo and insisting he plans to legally support the baby.
His legal team accused Seo of spreading false info, issuing threats, unlawful confinement, and stalking violations. Prosecutors are reportedly moving to indict Seo. A protective order is active against her.
Seo fired back on Instagram, denying she spread false information:
“I have never spread false information. I’ve been blocked and have no way to contact him, and I haven’t received any messages either.”

She also posted a cryptic apology to her family and a message implying deep pain and hopelessness:
“I’m sorry, mom, dad, siblings. I’m sorry, baby. If there’s a next life, let’s meet again. I’ll make you happy then. This is so cruel. One day, it’ll all come back around.”

Fans are expressing concern over Seo’s fragile mental state after her public breakdown and pleas for support on social media.
Jung’s side blames Seo for repeatedly posting private details despite police warnings. The ongoing legal battle now centers on serious criminal allegations against Seo, marking a dramatic fall from grace for the troubled reality star.
The saga continues as authorities prepare charges and the public watches the drama unfold.
