A shocking home invasion took place early on the morning of November 15 when an armed robber broke into the home of Nana in Acheon-dong, Guri-si, Gyeonggi Province. The singer and actress, and her mother, bravely fought back and subdued the intruder until police arrived.
After the news came out, fans grew worried and wondered whether she had been hurt in any way. New statements from her agency have since revealed that both Nana and her mother suffered injuries during the incident.
Robber Breaks into Nana’s Home at Dawn
According to the Guri Police Department, the incident occurred around 6:00 AM. The suspect, a man in his 30s identified only as “Mr. A,” entered Nana’s residence while carrying a weapon. Police reported that he threatened the 34-year-old actress and her mother while demanding money. Both were at home at the time and immediately found themselves in a dangerous situation.
Instead of giving in, Nana and her mother resisted. The situation escalated into a physical fight inside the house. Despite the danger, the two managed to overpower the robber and restrain him. They then immediately contacted the police. Officers who responded to the scene arrested the suspect and confirmed that he had been injured during the confrontation. He was later taken to a hospital for treatment.
Initial police reports stated that Nana and her mother were not injured, but that information soon changed.
Nana’s Agency Confirms Serious Injuries
While police initially announced that Nana and her mother were not injured, her agency, Sublime Artist Agency, shared a more serious update. The agency revealed that her mother suffered significant injuries while fighting the intruder. She lost consciousness during the struggle, and the agency described her condition as serious. Nana was also injured while trying to escape the immediate danger.
The intruder entered the home with a weapon, putting Nana and her mother in a very dangerous situation where they could have suffered serious harm.
Due to the intruder’s physical attack, Nana’s mother suffered severe injuries and lost consciousness, and Nana also sustained physical injuries while escaping the dangerous situation.
Both of them are currently in need of medical treatment and complete rest.
As the case is under investigation, specific details cannot be disclosed at this time, and any further information will follow the announcements made by the authorities.
All facts related to the incident are being thoroughly investigated by the police, and our company is fully cooperating with the authorities.
As the safety and well-being of the victims and their family are the top priority, we ask that everyone refrain from reckless speculation, spreading false information, or sharing content that invades their privacy, as it may cause serious secondary harm.
Sublime explained that both Nana and her mother are now in need of treatment and stability. They stressed that the two victims require rest after going through a traumatic and violent incident inside their own home. Because of this, the agency asked the public and media to avoid speculation, false information, and content that could invade their privacy or cause further harm.
Police Continue Investigation Into Attempted Special Robbery
The Guri Police Station confirmed that they arrested Mr. A on charges of attempted special robbery. This charge is applied when robbery involves the use of a weapon or when the victim is put in significant danger. Police and fire officials who responded to the scene verified that Mr. A had visible injuries from the physical struggle and was taken to the hospital for treatment.
Authorities plan to continue questioning Mr. A once the medical staff clears him for further investigation. They will also complete additional interviews with Nana and her mother to build a clear timeline and understand how the intruder entered the home. Details such as his motive, whether the home was targeted, and how he approached the residence are still being reviewed.
