The investigation into the "Injection Aunt" case, which centers around allegations of illegal medical treatment provided to comedian Park Na-rae and others, is spreading to other celebrities, according to police reports. The controversy deepened after police reportedly questioned broadcaster Jun Hyun-moo, SHINee members Key and Onew, and YouTuber HAETNIM for their alleged connections to the case.
Between June and July, the Seoul Gangnam Police Station questioned the four individuals one after another, as part of an investigation into claims that they received medical procedures from an unlicensed practitioner. The person in question, identified as A and known by the nickname "Injection Aunt," is alleged to be unlicensed to practice medicine in Korea. She reportedly performed medical procedures at locations such as officetels and inside vehicles.
Police are now concentrating on determining if those questioned were aware beforehand that A was not a legitimate medical practitioner.
