Lee Seung Gi continuously gets into trouble due to his wife’s family’s tradition of fraud.
Lee Seung Gi’s name is heavily influenced by the tradition of fraud in Lee Da In’s wife’s family. Most recently, the male singer and actor was conspired by his father-in-law to assign a debt of 200 million won (3.7 billion VND).
Lee Seung Gi did not speak up about the noise with his wife’s family. Instead, he attended the second hearing in the lawsuit with his former management company Hook Entertainment. On May 24, Lee Seung Gi personally read the petition at the Seoul Central District Court: “Hook Entertainment and I have been together from our teens to our 30s. It makes me sad to think that this scene (suing each other in court) would never have happened if Hook had paid out music profits in the first place. honest”.

In November 2022, Lee Seung Gi accused Hook of stealing all of his music profits for 18 years. During his 18-year career, the “nation’s son-in-law” has released a total of 137 songs and 27 albums, but he has not received a single penny from his musical activities. The management company continuously uses the excuse that Lee Seung Gi is a less famous and unprofitable singer to extort money.
According to reports from music distribution channels, Lee Seung Gi earned about 9.6 billion won (175.6 billion VND) from October 2009 to September 2022. If you add up profits from 2004 to 2009, Lee Seung Gi’s music revenue will exceed 10 billion won (183 billion VND).
By December 2022, Hook Entertainment had returned Lee Seung Gi 5.4 billion won (100 billion VND). The two sides continued to sue in court because Lee Seung Gi said the company had to pay more than 3 billion won (55 billion VND).
During his 18-year career, the “nation’s son-in-law” has released a total of 137 songs and 27 albums, but he has received absolutely no money from his musical activities.
In addition, in court, the male singer also accused Hook Entertainment CEO Kwon Jin Young of regularly insulting him: “The type of person who only knows about money”, “I would rather adopt and raise street children than teach you”… Lee Seung Gi said he first asked the company to show his music revenue in 2021. At that time, CEO Kwon Jin Young responded: “How can you show it when you are a singer causing a loss of capital?”
Lee Seung Gi said he will donate all the music profits he claims from Hook Entertainment: “I feel betrayed by the company and CEO I trusted for a long time. I was very courageous to bring the incident to light, hoping these things will not happen again and there will be no more victims. I hope that the juniors who debuted at a young age will no longer have to suffer the same disadvantages as me.”
CEO Kwon Jin Young also often insults Lee Seung Gi
Previously on May 23, the program True Story Expedition exposed the 200 million won (3.7 billion VND) fraud by Lim Young Gyu – Lee Da In’s father.
In the recording of his conversation with the creditor, Lim Young Gyu intended to assign the debt to his famous son-in-law: “Lee Seung Gi will settle that debt. I feel comfortable hearing that.” This man also intended to take more money from Lee Seung Gi even though he had no respect for his son-in-law: “I’ll tell you. I’m having trouble. That’s why I need to get money from ****.” there”.
