[All] “My past with him was a wound”… Triple Star, ex-wife and ex-girlfriend

“My past with him was a wound”… Triple Star, ex-wife and ex-girlfriend

“I’ve been hurt so many times…” (Mr. A)

Person A is the ex-wife of 'Chef' Triple Star (real name Kang Seung-won). She is the main character in the wedding photos at the Hyatt Hotel (2022).

“I have been hurt and betrayed countless times during my relationship and marriage. I thought I had erased it from my memory… but the past keeps coming back to haunt me.” (Mr. A)

Triple Star also admitted to his relationship with Mr. A. However, he protested to Dispatch, saying, "The divorce was a unilateral notification. I wanted to protect my family."

"There was no specific reason for the divorce. It was Mr. A who requested the divorce. I tried to protect my family. Honestly, I don't know what I did wrong." (Triple Star)

(Triple Star married Mr. A in May 2022. And they divorced three months later. At that time, the two did not register their marriage. They were in a common-law relationship, not a legal couple.)

Here is Mr. B. He was unilaterally 'disappeared' by Triple Star.

"One day, overnight, I was broken up with without any explanation. I tried to get an apology, but I didn't even get a call." (B)

Mr. B heard the news of Triple Star's marriage. He sent a DM (above) to 'Trid'. Mr. B found out later that Triple Star was a 'two-timing'.

Triple Star also admitted to his relationship with Mr. B. He said, "I didn't meet Mr. B for a long time," and "I met him for one or two months. It's true that we didn't contact each other after that."

Triple Star came into the (media) world. He became a star chef overnight through 'Black and White Chef'. Trid also rose to fame as a famous restaurant.

His appearance is welcome news in the culinary world. However, it is a nightmare for Mr. A and Mr. B. The two complained that "memories they wanted to forget have come back to life."

"There was a person I never wanted to see again. I don't care if he cooks in a restaurant. But I don't want to see his face on the media." (A·B)

A and B reported to 'Dispatch' about Triple Star's past. They raised issues such as private life controversies, (Michelin) employment lobbying, and verbal abuse and threats.

What does Triple Star think about this controversy? We have translated the claims of Mr. A and Mr. B and Triple Star's explanation into a Q&A format.

◆ Meeting with Mr. A

Mr. A and Triple Star first met in 2014. At the time, Mr. A was living in the United States on business, and Triple Star was an international student at Le Cordon Bleu.

Person A helped Triple Star in both material and spiritual ways. He revealed to Dispatch, "I lobbied Triple Star with Chanel bags and other things to get her hired."

Dispatch: Who did you give the Chanel bag to?

A: Triple Star was a student. I heard that the job of a chef is important in which restaurant you work. I was also in business at the time, so I had various connections. So I went around looking for people who could exert influence on the restaurant Triple Star wanted.

Dispatch: Dad Chance, or is it Ex-wife Chance?

A: I had a close friend (Ms. X) in the US. Her friend (Ms. Y) had connections with Atelier Creen and Benu. She asked me for help, saying, "I'm going to get married to a friend, but she's still a student. She has no work experience and can't get a job." She asked for help, saying, "I'll definitely repay your kindness."

Dispatch contacted Mr. X, who lives in the United States, to confirm the truth. He said, "Ms. A earnestly asked me to help her boyfriend get a job," and "I used my personal connections to find LINE."

"As it turned out, my friend Y was close with the head chef of 'Atelier Crean'. He contacted the chef and asked him again. Thanks to that, Triple Star was able to apply." (Mr. X)

Dispatch: You gave her a Chanel bag as a gift?

X: It was a limited edition with a gold chain in deep red. Mr. A asked me (her boyfriend) to take good care of it and bought two of them.

Dispatch: Did lobbying affect your job search?

X: Triple Star was just an international student at the time. There are a lot of culinary schools in the US. During graduation season, resumes pour in. A student with no experience gets into Michelin? That's not common.

Dispatch: So, what is the process for getting hired at ‘Benu’?

X: Mr. Y was a close friend of Benu's investors. He also knew Chef Corey Lee well. Triple Star got the opportunity to interview with Benu through our connections.

Mr. A's Chanel bag lobby also appears in the transcript of the conversation between the two people. (Blue)

“I’ve supported you so much. Since the US. I even bought Chanel bags (with my own money) for X and Y. I asked them, ‘Sister, please help her get a job.’” (Mr. A)
“My past with him was a wound”… Triple Star, ex-wife and ex-girlfriend
'Dispatch' checked with Triple Star to confirm the truth. He asked, "Is that (Michelin) restaurant a place where you can enter with a Chanel bag?" It's nonsense.

Triple Star: I know that A bought Chanel bags for two people (X and Y). But is it possible to get a job just by giving them a bag? A just gave them as gifts to her close friends.

Dispatch: Then what efforts did you make?

Triple Star: I sent an email. I worked at Atelier Creen as an extern. And the place I really wanted to work was Benu. I went to the US to work at Benu.

Dispatch: Mr. A's side says their request (lobbying) had a decisive influence on the hiring process?

Triple Star: I worked as an unpaid intern at 'Benu' for 3 months. I worked really hard and was hired as a full-time employee after just one month. Was it because of the Chanel bag? Because I was recognized by the head chef.

Dispatch: Then, when you spoke to Mr. A, why didn't you deny the Chanel bag lobby part?

Triple Star: That's my personality. When Mr. A said, "I gave you a Chanel bag," I didn't want to fight over whether it was true or not.

Love and Reflection

Mr. A and Triple Star repeated Love and War (2014-2022). They recorded a love story of love, breakup, reunion, divorce, and war.

Triple Star wrote letters every time. He sent about 40 letters to Mr. A. Dispatch confirmed about 10 of them.

17,500 characters. The letter contained numerous reflections, apologies, pledges, and determinations. For example…

"A female guest wearing revealing clothes was sitting alone (at the table) when I secretly watched her through CCTV footage from a dark warehouse." (From the apology)

"I am trash. I love women, I am dirty and greedy, and I did things I shouldn't have done to someone who loved me so much." (From a reflection)

"With the idea that we will spend our lives together, we trust each other as lifelong companions and show through our actions that we can think that way." (Resolve)

The relationship between the two was not smooth. In addition, they had a long-distance relationship for a year. A returned to Korea first in 2016. Triple Star returned in 2017.

Dispatch: What problems did you have during your long-distance relationship (2016)?

A: Actually, even when we were dating, there were always problems with women. But when we were apart, I couldn't handle it. Then, something critical happened.

Dispatch: The decisive incident?

A: With another man… (Dispatch heard Mr. A’s response, but decided not to relay the claim as is. It will be replaced with a letter of reflection written by Triple Star.)

Related questions were also asked to Triple Star.

Dispatch: Is Mr. A's claim true?

Triple Star: No, absolutely not.

Dispatch: There is a reflection on that content in the 10th reflection paper.

Triple Star:   I don’t have the reflection paper with me right now… so I don’t remember what I wrote.


Another Mr. B

Mr. A was an investor in 'Trid' at the time. He invested 150 million won in the establishment of Triple Star (restaurant). Mr. A was then in charge of marketing and other areas.

'Trid' Instagram management is also A's job. In April 2022, A received an unidentified message from the official account. It was a DM from his ex-girlfriend, B.

Dispatch: Did you check with Triple Star?

A: He made excuses, saying that he only met me briefly to forget about me. Then he started finding fault with Mr. B.

'Dispatch' had a hard time contacting Mr. B. According to Mr. B, he dated Triple Star for about 4 months. Then, one day, they 'broke up'.

Mr. B asked Dispatch not to use his interview. He said he did not want to be linked to the past anymore. Instead, he sent his own statement.

"I heard rumors about his girlfriend problems, but I never thought I would be one of them. There wasn't even a fight. We dated like any normal couple, and then one day, without any explanation or reason, we broke up.

Later I found out that he was two-timing another woman at that time. I tried to contact him to get an apology, but I didn't hear anything. Not long after, I suddenly heard rumors that he was getting married and opening a store. I was deeply hurt by the sense of betrayal.

I buried it in my heart as a wound and tried to forget about it and live on. Then I watched 'Black and White Chef' and there was a person I didn't want to see again. When people around me say that I look good just by watching the show, the image making of the show...

I hope that one day, the true nature of those two faces will be revealed. I hope that he realizes how many women he has fooled and played with while pretending to be good. I hope that he realizes through this opportunity how wrong he has lived. I really want to stop seeing that fake face in the media." (B)


Wife and War

I was curious about Triple Star's position.

Dispatch: They are claiming that they broke up.

Triple Star: I didn't date Mr. B for long. We only met for about 1~2 months. We had different ideas. So we didn't keep in touch anymore.

Dispatch: (Dispatch) Since the investigation began, have you ever contacted Mr. B?

Triple Star: No. I won't do it. There is a party involved, so you can hear it from the party involved.

When Triple Star broke up with Mr. B, he chose to 'go into hiding'. He didn't contact her and didn't answer her calls either.

However, as the interview progressed, I sent a text message (to Mr. B) first. It was the first contact since the disappearance. Triple Star requested a call, saying there was an 'important matter'.


'Dispatch' did not ask any more questions about Mr. B. (That was also Mr. B's intention.) However, Mr. A's claims needed to be confirmed. Especially the part about the threat.

Dispatch: In August 2023, Ms. A got a boyfriend. He threatened her, saying, 'I want to stab you to death'?

Triple Star: Didn't you only see part of it?

Dispatch: I saw the KakaoTalk conversation I had with Mr. A.

Triple Star: Isn't it a patchwork?

Dispatch: This is not a patchwork, this is a capture of only the part where the threat was made.

Triple Star: I don't know what KakaoTalk message you saw. It's hard to answer. However, if you got angry, there must be a reason. I'm not that type of person, but I think Mr. A was surprised.


Triple Star did not respond to further questions. His lawyer justified the controversial remarks by saying, "There must be some context ahead."

Nevertheless, (the chef's) words, "I want to tear you to pieces" cannot help but sound threatening. That's why Mr. A is considering suing for extortion.

Finally, I asked about the countless letters I had written and sent. Triple Star's lawyer answered on my behalf.

"I heard roughly what kind of woman she was. It seems like Triple Star gave her a lot of credit. I also heard that she lived by giving in." (Lawyer)

Triple Star downplayed the meaning of the letter. Was it intended to appease Mr. A's anger? In other words, the content of the letter was not 100% true.
