Singer and actress Sung Yu-ri was found to have received 3 billion won from Kang, Park Min-young's former lover, who is suspected of being the real owner of Bithumb on the virtual currency exchange. She had previously stated that she did not know Kang.

It was revealed on the 15th that Bucket Studio, represented by Kang's younger brother, invested 3 billion won in Sung Yu-ri's cosmetics company. According to the quarterly report, Bucket Studio invested 3 billion won in Yulia L on August 4th and acquired 4,615 shares (18.75% stake). Yulia L is a cosmetics manufacturer and seller represented by Sung Yu-ri. There are only two in-house directors, Sung Yu-ri and her husband, Ahn Sung-hyun.

Earlier, Bucket Studio invested 6 billion won in Bithumb Live since September last year and 5 billion won in Green Snake Media in November last year to diversify its business. This year, GI Holdings, Metacomus, Akara Korea, Vita Entertainment, and Sung Yu-ri, are worth a total of 30.9 billion won.

"Sung Yu-ri is the representative in charge of product design and marketing", a Yulia L official told Sport V News on the 15th. "We gave an investment proposal at the time when we wanted to confirm the business".

"It is true that she received 3 billion won in investment, but there was an article that she was involved with Kang after receiving the investment. At that time, we returned the investment because it didn't seem to fit the image with our company. That was probably when Park Min-young's article broke out in early October. We are just embarrassed to be involved with Bithumb in running a cosmetics company", the official said.

Sung Yu-ri has previously denied any connection with Kang. It was known that her husband, Ahn Sung-hyun, a standing coach of the national professional golf team, was close enough to share an expensive foreign car with Kang, but Sung Yu-ri has been unaware of it.

At the time, an official from Sung Yu-ri's agency continued to draw a line, saying, "It is true that Ahn Sung-hyun, Sung Yu-ri's husband, knows Kang personally, but Sung Yu-ri has no personal acquaintance".
