As we all know, South Korean female celebrities are a high-risk profession, and South Korea is also a country where chaebols control the lifeblood of the people.
They cover the sky with their hands, even though the government has to be afraid of three points.
Having power means having money, status, and fame, and desire will grow larger and larger under the domination of money.
If some stars in the Korean entertainment industry are beautiful, but they have no money, no power and no background.
Therefore, it is easy to become a plaything in the hands of Korean chaebols, sleeping with you, X reception, etc.
All kinds of things you can't think of, they can all do.
There are not a few Korean actresses who are deeply tormented by this, such as the famous representatives Zhang Ziyan, Lee Eun-joo, and Zheng Duobin.
The closest to us are Cui Shirley and Gu Hola, but they committed suicide because of their original families and internet violence.
Although there is no direct evidence that the latter's death is related to South Korean chaebols.
But it is worth affirming that being a female star in the Korean entertainment industry is indeed a high-risk profession.
If you are not careful, your spirit will be affected and you will be forced to retreat from the circle, and if you are heavy, you will be overwhelmed and end your life.
All of the female stars mentioned above have a rather tragic ending, they are only in their 20s.
It is a pity that he had to ruin his great acting career.
Of course, there are another examples of this.
In front of these female stars who committed suicide, there is a female artist who can be called their predecessor, and she has also suffered more tragic encounters than ever before.
This person is The korean mid-70s and mid-80s popular female artist Jang Mei-ji, an actress who is also beautiful and powerful.
This time we will talk about it - Zhang Meiji.
01
In 1958, Zhang Meiji was born.
Zhang Meiji grew up beautiful, and at the age of 17, she was discovered by a star scout and joined TBC Television in South Korea as an actor trainee.
The scout's vision is very poisonous, zhang Meiji in addition to people look beautiful, but also really has a high talent as an actor.
In just one year, she beat nearly a thousand interviewers and won the opportunity to play the heroine of the movie "The Legend of Cheng Chunxiang".
"Into Spring and Summer" is similar to the storyline of "Dream of the Red Chamber", one of the four famous works in China, and it is all a novel adaptation of film and television works, and its popularity belongs to the degree of being well-known in South Korea.
Zhang Meiji, who was only 18 years old at the time, won the female lead color, which is definitely a rare situation for newcomer actors without any acting experience.
Indeed, "The Legend of Cheng Chun Xiang" was a great success once it was released.
Both the storyline and the image of Zhang Meiji are very restored to the original work, and she quickly has a place in the Korean entertainment industry.
At the time of rising popularity, Zhang Meiji's various resources were soft.
With this work, she has won many authoritative awards and become a well-known three-material film queen.
A movie made Jang Mei-ji red in the 70s and 80s of South Korea, and she became the highest-paid actress in Korean entertainment, living at the top.
And such a beautiful and acting woman, why not make men like it, women are jealous?
Since most of the role types that Jang Mei-hee took over after filming her debut were pure jade female figures, she became the dream lover of Korean men, including the heart of South Korean President Chun Doo-hwan at that time.
At that time, Chun Doo-hwan was a husband with a wife, and he could become the president of South Korea without the support of his wife's family.
But he did not have love for his wife Li Shunzi, and initially the woman came to pursue it unilaterally.
It is impossible to refuse to let Chun Doo-hwan look at the face of the background, and his career is indeed very important, and there is only one convenient way to climb up.
Chun Doo-hwan became president with the support of his wife's family, and it wasn't long before he met 23-year-old Jang Mi-hee.
At that time, one was the president of a country that had just taken office and had great power, and the other was a well-known popular actress.
They want to meet, and it's fairly easy to have some stories.
At a high-class dinner, the two met.
Quan Douhuan, who has long been coveting Zhang Meiji, has gradually used time to impress the woman's heart, Zhang Meiji is also a love brain, regardless of the situation that the other party has a family, resolutely threw herself into the gentle township of Quan Doohuan and became his lover.
Originally, I thought that the two were just playing, and they would get tired of each other over time.
Not to mention that the difference between the two is 26 years old, how to look at it will not feel that Zhang Meiji's identity will be willing to pay a good youth for an old man.
But with the passage of time, the two not only did not have a weakened relationship, but became more and more intimate.
02
Chun Doo-hwan and Jang Mi-hee don't care about the mood of the original match, and they also take her frequently in and out of various celebrity places.
This not only delayed his national affairs, but also affected Zhang Meiji's filming progress, so that her TV series was suspended by the radio and almost banned.
What's even more fatal is that Li Shunzi, who is the original match of Quan Douhuan, is not a vegetarian woman.
She saw the infidelity of her husband in her eyes, and the emotions of anger and jealousy burned in her heart.
Li Shunzi naturally did not sit idly by, and since she could not do anything to her beloved husband, she turned her anger to Zhang Meiji.
Li Shunzi relied on the support of her mother's family behind her back, and immediately got a set of punishment methods that made her very satisfied.
According to the X-Yang incident, which has been widely circulated in South Korea in the early 1980s, Jang Mei-hee was forcibly kidnapped by people sent by Lee Soon-ko during filming.
After removing the uterus from her body, she stripped her of her clothes and was imprisoned with a man in a small dark room for 5 days before being released.
Rumors belong to rumors, after all, we still need to pay attention to evidence.
Afterwards, the Korean media has approached Zhang Meiji countless times for verification, and at first Zhang Meiji denied it, and then refused to answer the matter.
The replies were inconsistent and bizarre, which was a true rumor for the Korean citizens at the time.
Coincidentally, after the rumors flowed out that year, Zhang Meiji gave up her career and chose to study in the United States.
Later, she has been living in the United States under the name of studying abroad, which has further led some South Koreans to believe that Zhang Meiji was forced into exile in the United States because of the X Yang Incident.
Otherwise, if she continues to stay in South Korea, her situation will only be more difficult, and Lee Soon-ko may not be able to continue to retaliate against her in the future.
With the passage of time, the heat of the X-Yang event gradually subsided.
It wasn't until 7 years later, a movie called "Seoul Rainbow" rekindled the extinguished fire.
The storyline of the film is very similar to the love story of Jang Mi-hee and Chun Doo-hwan in real life, and once it was released, it quickly caused a heated discussion among the Korean people.
The voice of public opinion continued to rise, and Kim Ho-sun, who directed the film, also gained fame.
The outside world turned its attention to Zhang Meiji again, who was still living in the United States.
It was not until 2004 that Zhang Meiji, who had lived in the United States for nearly 20 years, returned to Korean entertainment.
Although her fame after her return was not as good as when she first debuted, she could only play supporting roles in film and television dramas, but 4 years later she won the KBS Acting Awards Popular Actress Award, after all, the heavens did not live up to her efforts because of her experience, so that she got the corresponding reward.
The key is that Zhang Meiji's life has gradually returned to normal, and under the washing of time, the outside world has long been uninterested in her.
The attention has declined, which is undoubtedly a good thing for Zhang Meiji.
Zhang Meiji can have a new beginning, her former lover Chun Doo-hwan is the opposite, after the two broke up, Chun Doo-hwan ushered in a series of changes in his life.

In 1996, Chun Doo-hwan was changed from death to life imprisonment for crimes such as rebellion and secret funds, and a fine of hundreds of billions of won was recovered.
The following year, he was released by the then President Kim Young-sam amnesty.
Originally thought that he would become a man again, but he did not expect to remain dead, not to mention that he could still enjoy the life of a king after he was released from prison, and he still had the face to try to return to politics.
The result is obvious, after many attempts, it still failed to achieve the desire.
Because the charges were still ongoing, he was even disqualified from being buried in a state cemetery.
Of course, the South Korean government has not stopped liquidating Chun Doo-hwan because of his release, especially on the issue of collecting fines, and Chun Doo-hwan has not been active.
On the surface, he said that he only had a family base of less than 300,000 won, but he and his wife frequently traveled, had a facelift, and never fell on their birthday every year.
He has also been witnessed attending his granddaughter's luxurious wedding, which has caused public indignation.
In 2013, South Korean courts extended the period for recovering Chun Doo-hwan's fine from three to ten years.
In November, he was brought back to court for issues left over from his criminal history and was eventually sentenced to eight months in prison, suspended for two years.
At this point, all the honors and humiliations of President Chun Doo-hwan, who had influenced a generation of South Koreans, came to an end.
In such a comparison, Zhang Meiji, who is now 63 years old, is both lucky and happy.
Although she is still single and has lost the confidence to pursue love and happiness, perhaps for her, the state of being alone is the most comfortable way to live.
