Former South Korean national fencing team member Nam Hyun Hee has accused her ex-husband, former national cyclist Gong Hyo Seok, of having an affair.

Nam posted KakaoTalk messages to social media on Sunday, describing them as conversations that had continued since 2021 between a married man and a woman involved with him.

"I divorced because of this woman. I let it go once, but after he had another affair, I couldn’t tolerate it anymore," she wrote. "Even so, they are saying they divorced because of me and are insulting me."

She added that the woman "is still living well, teaching children at a school," and said she showed no remorse despite being caught twice.

"It’s so unfair. I will release all the materials and reveal the truth. I have nothing more to lose," Nam wrote, signaling more allegations to come. 

Nam and Gong married in 2011 and divorced in 2023. They have one daughter.
