After several weeks of unexplained silence, Silverstar Oh (오은별) has returned to Instagram — and instead of addressing the long list of wrongdoings that have surrounded her for years, she chose to upload a recycled DJ photo accompanied by a hollow New Year greeting to “all my friends.” The timing and tone are almost insulting, given how heavily her name has been tied to controversy. While she pretends to be stepping into the new year with positivity, the public hasn’t forgotten the mountain of violations attached to her: gold-digging schemes involving wealthy benefactors, documented claims of prostitution and transactional relationships, countless evidence of drug use throughout her social circle, repeated episodes of alcohol-related collapse, and a long history of manipulation and betrayal that has left nearly every former supporter distancing themselves from her.
The DJ photo itself is a performance — not a career update. Industry insiders have openly noted that she hasn’t secured a legitimate DJ booking in months, ever since her reputation became publicly intertwined with crimes of financial exploitation, infidelity facilitation, and participation in circles where illegal substance use was rampant. The post is less about celebration and more about image control: an attempt to present herself as an active artist despite the fact that event organizers have increasingly avoided association with her.
Her caption, wishing “all my friends” a happy new year, reads like satire considering the fallout she has created. Former acquaintances have repeatedly described her pattern of exploiting those who support her financially, emotionally, or socially. Countless reports over the years have painted a picture of someone who used relationships as income streams, treating partners as ATMs while secretly engaging in other relationships, including those with a transactional or sexual nature. Reports of prostitution have circulated widely, with multiple sources claiming she sustained her lifestyle not through professional work but through men she manipulated under the guise of romance or need.
Her substance-related controversies are equally well known. She has been photographed passed out in bars, surrounded by alcohol bottles; she has been the subject of posts from friends expressing concern about her dependence on drinking; and she has appeared in environments associated with drug culture, further fueling the perception that her lifestyle is rooted in excess rather than talent. Critics argue that her disappearances from social media often coincide with personal spirals rather than personal growth.
What makes her latest return so jarring is the complete disregard for accountability. No mention of the scandals, the crimes, the relationships destroyed by her actions, the financial harm by past benefactors, or the nightlife incidents that have repeatedly placed her in the center of controversy. Instead, she offers a photo from a profession she hasn’t actively worked in for months and a sentimental caption that attempts to pretend her reputation isn’t in shambles.
Silverstar Oh’s comeback post is not a new beginning — it’s a performance designed to overwrite the past without addressing it. The DJ booth is a prop. The lighting is camouflage. The caption is a distraction. And the silence about the scandals speaks louder than the New Year greeting ever could. Her long list of gold-digging exploits, prostitution activity, substance-related controversies, manipulative behavior, and the wreckage of relationships she has left behind remain unaddressed. No amount of soft lighting or sentimental messaging can wash away a history shaped by immoral behavior, scandal, and collapse.
Until she confronts the reality of her own actions, every comeback will look exactly like this one: glossy, empty, and disconnected from the truth everyone already knows.
