Shin Eun Kyung: From movie to real life evil girl, abandoning deformed son caused a storm

Shin Eun Kyung was once an A-list star on the Korean screen, but her miserable life and public criticism for abandoning her son due to cerebral palsy put Shin Eun's reputation and career in trouble, and Kyung returned to zero.

Shin Eun-kyung is a South Korean actress known since 2001 for the success of the movie "My Wife is a Gangster" which made her one of the leading actresses of South Korean cinema. With a beautiful and sharp personality, Shin Eun-kyung is often assigned roles of villains and conspiracies, so he is known as the "Korean screen girl". More recently, she made a comeback in the blockbuster "The Attic," which, though not the lead role, helped her regain her reputation after years of struggling with a child-abandonment scandal.


Shin Eun-kyung was born into a poor family and was forced to work in the entertainment industry by his biological parents since he was a child to help them change their lives. Shin Eun-kyung's young years are related to her parents' exhaustion. Although they are blood relatives, the two only regard their daughters as a tool to make money, and all their salaries are used to repay their parents' debts. After the debt was paid off, Shin Eun Kyung thought she could live alone, who knew that her parents would start a business and use her contract fees as capital investment.


During her career, Shin Eun-kyung has also faced a series of scandals that have hampered her career. The actress used to suffer from depression and alcoholism. She was even arrested for drunk driving. The scandal made her ostracized by the public, and the audience demanded that she be expelled from the entertainment industry.

In 2003, she announced her marriage to the richest man, Mr. Kim Jong-soo, chairman of Fantom Entertainment Group, to the attention of the media and the public. Due to the most extravagant luxury in the Korean entertainment industry at the time, Shin's wedding day cost a lot of ink. After marriage, she gave birth to a son for her husband's family. Baby Myung Joon was praised for being cute and lively. At that time, Shin Eun Kyung had everything a woman could dream of: beauty, career, family.


However, the marriage later became the biggest scandal of Shin Eun-kyung's career. The seemingly perfect marriage started a tragedy. The husband failed in business and borrowed money everywhere with her signature. After 4 years of marriage, he was forced to divorce.

She shared in a 2012 interview, "Finally, I decided to break up after living together for 4 years." Also in this interview, Shin Eun-kyung cried over his son's illness. "My life has been a series of miserable days. Son has hydrocephalus , 9 years old but only has the brain of a 2-3 year old boy. Every week, I take my son to the hospital for checkups. The hospital says he can't have surgery, can't Healed. But I will never give up and always protect my child," she cried.


At the time, Shin Eun-kyung surprised the public by revealing in an interview that her son had hydrocephalus. At age 9, the boy only had the same brain as a 2- or 3-year-old child. The actress revealed that the disease is incurable. After the divorce, she is also responsible for raising the children, which is extremely difficult financially. I don't know how many times TV dramas and movies have canceled Shin Eun Kyung's role just because a debt collector came to the set to look for her.


Shin Eun-kyung's sharing once made the audience burst into tears. But a few years later, Shin Eun-kyung's mother-in-law publicly exposed the lies of her ex-daughter-in-law and said in front of the media: "After their divorce, I raised my grandson alone. I'm 87 years old, and I don't have much energy. After my death, My son will continue to take care of him. Shin Eun-kyung has only visited her son twice in 8 years and ignored him at all.”


This revelation made the Korean people angry. They feel cheated by what Shin Eun Kyung shared before. She is not an unfortunate beauty, but a woman who is irresponsible for her own children. Although Shin Eun-kyung later denied her mother-in-law's accusations, public opinion criticized her, saying she was just a fake, and her film career was once again thrown into chaos. South Korean public opinion expressed anger: "Is she a woman with two faces? How can she be willing to give up her own children?", "It's a pity that the title of A-level star makes me cry.It’s just a lie”.


According to her ex-mother-in-law, her son Shin Eun-kyung plays the piano well, but his family can’t let him pursue his dreams. She revealed that her grandson is now 12 years old and has a brain of only 6 Years old. "He still looks normal, like any other normal baby, but his brain isn't developing. She likes to play the piano, but I'm too old to buy one for her. "

After that scandal, Shin Eun-kyung also gradually moved away from the audience, and she limited her artistic activities. A few years after the shock scandal, the up-and-coming actress starred in the SBS drama "The Last Queen", but It wasn't too successful and wasn't as popular with audiences as expected. Until recently, when she starred in the hit TV series "The Attic," although she wasn't the main character, the work helped her suffer for years after a child-abandonment scandal.
