The reporter shared, "An insider told me a shocking story...It is about a stop star, A. The person is someone who owns a jewelry store. The owner said that A exchanged a jewelry gift she got for cash at his store." 

The reporter added, "The jewelry was 80,000,000 KRW (~$68,000 USD)... The reason the store employees were shocked was because a famous politician came by the day before and bought the jewelry... We thought he was buying it for his wife."

When asked if that top star A was in a difficult financial situation, the reporter said, "No, she is a 'CF goddess.' She works a lot, but I think there are unknown family difficulties." 

The reporter also added, "The politician is famous for playing around with a lot of female celebrities. One hotel employee said that after the politician stays in a room, it's very hard to clean the room up because he plays so disgustingly with rookie female singers and actors."
