It has been revealed that Moonwon, Shinji's fiancé from the group Koyote, exchanged DMs (direct messages) with transgender creator Sarah, and it has been confirmed to be a simple misunderstanding.
Transgender BJ Kkotja stated on her personal broadcast on the 16th, “It is true that Moonwon and Sarah have known each other for a long time, but they did not meet after her transition.”
Recently, Sarah, who appeared on Kkotja's live broadcast, drew attention by mentioning the fact that she and Moonwon follow each other on social media. When a netizen asked if she could reveal the messages for 100 million won, Sarah jokingly replied, “If you give me 500 million won, I can also reveal KakaoTalk messages,” sparking curiosity.
In response, Kkotja emphasized, “Moonwon did not know that Sarah was a transgender person or that she had transitioned, and upon checking, there were no problematic conversations.”
The connection between Sarah and Moonwon began when Sarah was preparing to be a trot singer during her male days, starting from a meeting at a gathering. It is reported that they exchanged numbers and maintained a close brother-sister relationship.
Later, it was revealed that Sarah did not realize that Moonwon, who changed his stage name from Park Sang-moon to ‘Moonwon’, was the same person. Moonwon also did not know about Sarah's transgender status and reportedly asked through DM, “Was my girlfriend joking?”
Upon learning of this fact, it is reported that Moonwon unfollowed Sarah.
Meanwhile, Moonwon is set to marry Shinji in the first half of next year. In this context, he has been embroiled in various allegations, including “bullying juniors during school and military service,” “premarital pregnancy with his ex-wife and suspicions of cheating,” “changing his name three times,” and “real estate business fraud.” In response, Moonwon admitted, “It is true that I worked in real estate without a license. It was my fault,” but denied the other allegations.
Moonwon is scheduled to have a wedding with Shinji next year.
