📰 Cha Eunwoo-related case: current attorney says assessment of ‘delayed payment’ is inappropriate

Legal circles have stated that framing the tax issue involving singer and actor #CHAEUNWOO as ‘tax evasion’ is inappropriate. Kim Chaeeun, an attorney at the law firm Sedam, analyzed that the matter was not an intentional tax evasion but a legitimate procedural response challenging the legality of the assessment prior to the issuance of a tax notice.

Attorney Kim stated, “The National Tax Service did not refer Cha Eunwoo on charges of tax evasion, nor did it impose additional penalties for underreporting with fraudulent intent,” adding, “It is difficult to view this as tax evasion, which requires intent and fraudulent activity.” She explained that tax evasion is established only when intent and fraudulent conduct are recognized, and in this case, such conditions were not confirmed.

Regarding allegations of “delayed payment” raised by some, she emphasized that legal procedures must be taken into account. Kim explained, “The pre-assessment review filed by Cha Eunwoo is not an appeal process after taxes have been finalized, but a system to dispute the legality of taxation before the issuance of a tax notice.” She added, “While this procedure is ongoing, the tax amount is not finalized and no tax bill is issued, making payment practically impossible.” She further noted, “The reportedly 20 billion won tax amount was not a confirmed figure prior to this review, so characterizing it as delayed payment is inappropriate.”

In fact, the pre-assessment review is a procedure that allows taxpayers to raise objections before the National Tax Service’s formal tax disposition, and depending on the outcome, the tax assessment and amount may be adjusted. Until this process is completed, the tax obligation is not finalized, so payment is typically made only after receiving the official notice.

Kim further stated, “The pre-assessment review system allows taxpayers to request a review of the tax authority’s judgment in advance, serving as a mechanism to ensure the appropriateness of taxation,” adding, “It is regrettable that such lawful exercise of taxpayers’ defense rights is being stigmatized in some media reports.”

Cha Eun-Woo's global fans are tirelessly fighting for the justice that is sadly lacking in his country.
We are all saddened, disappointed, and disillusioned by everything surrounding how this event has been handled.

There is no criteria, responsibility, respect, or truthfulness! What we see is a festival of crimes, corruption, fake news, and all of this being bravely combated by fans and good people.

I continue to believe in justice, even though it is acting silently to punish those who have truly committed and continue to commit crimes against their homeland.

The current of good, justice, and respect for Cha Eun-Woo and his family remains strong, fueled by the voice of the world, since in South Korea what we see are lies, accusations, crimes, and disrespect driven by greed and a lack of truth.

For Cha Eun-Woo, we around the world stand firm in our purpose to support and honor him!

He can count on his true fans!!

We suffer with worry and longing... but if there's one thing we'll never forget, it's your example of strength and resilience.

Stay strong, Cha Eun-Woo, we love and support you above all else!

So, MBC became a part of yellow journalism now, really?!

What a shame!

Don't regret it, MBC; in the end you have to make an apology to him and his family! And bear the accountability for misleading information that defames him and his family. The real criminals are the ones spreading misinformation that provokes hate speech on social media and must be severely punished.

[Danielle 🎀 🩰 @DanielleMaterra]

@MBCstraight If you’re going to air an investigative report, the least you can do is stick to the facts. Programs like MBC Straight carry a responsibility to research properly before presenting speculation as scandal. Instead, the segment about Cha Eunwoo framed normal and legally permitted business practices as suspicious while leaving out key legal context.

First, the program implied something improper simply because Eunwoo’s company involved family members. Korean corporate law allows small private corporations to operate this way, and there is no legal requirement to hire employees outside of the family.

Many artist support companies function like this. On top of that, the report conflated two separate businesses Eunwoo owns, even misreporting details about Chas Gallery, which shows a lack of basic research.

Second, the segment suggested that using a corporation for income equals tax evasion. That’s misleading. Korean tax law intentionally provides different corporate tax rates to encourage business activity, which is why many high earning entertainers operate through corporations.

On top of that, there has been no final ruling in this case. Eunwoo is disputing the assessment through the legal process, which means the issue is still under review. Using the word evasion is incorrect and defamatory.

Showing dramatic aerial footage of land purchases proves nothing. Companies routinely buy land for investment or expansion. The Ganghwa Island property is large enough for offices or operational facilities, and purchasing land in a rural area where it’s more affordable is a common business strategy. Businesses can also operate multiple ventures there, including the agency, hospitality or food businesses like the eel restaurant that contribute to the local economy.

Framing these normal business decisions as evidence of wrongdoing ignores the legal and economic reality.

Investigative journalism should present facts and context not selectively edited narratives designed to imply guilt. If you’re going to report on something, do the research. Do better.

Instead of real investigations, @MBCstraight chooses to sensationalize a celebrity’s family business for views. That’s not accountability journalism, that’s manufactured controversy.

Official Statement: Refuting MBC "Straight’s" Misleading Report

This statement serves to refute the irresponsible and misleading information presented by MBC’s investigative program "@MBCstraight" (스트레이트) concerning #CHAEUNWOO’s tax assessment case.

The report in question contains several inaccuracies that distort the reality of the situation. Following a thorough fact-check of the available data, we present the following seven points to correct the record and expose the manipulation of facts, omissions, and deceptive editing present in the broadcast.

[Fact Check: 7 Points of Fabrication and Manipulation]

1. Intentional Misidentification of Target Entities and Concealment of L&C (엘엔씨)

—The Claim: The broadcast implied the entity under investigation was "Cha’s Gallery" (차스갤러리), now known as "The Ani" (디애니).
—The Fact: The actual agency that performed legitimate management services and received the tax assessment is "L&C" (엘엔씨). MBC staged a scene visiting "The Ani" (디애니) representatives while completely concealing the name "L&C" (엘엔씨) throughout the entire broadcast. "Cha’s Gallery" (차스갤러리) is a previous entity that has long since been dissolved.

2. Deceptive Portrayal of Office Premises (The "Eel Restaurant" Frame)

—The Claim: MBC showed a 2-story eel restaurant (Building A), claiming it was a "paper company" with no office presence.
—The Fact: The site consists of four separate buildings (A, B, C, and D). While Building A is a restaurant, Building C is a fully independent, functional office space used by the agency. MBC intentionally hid the existence of Building C to push a "ghost company" narrative.

3. Fabrication of Revenue Settlement and Tax Evasion Claims

—The Claim: CHA EUNWOO bypassed personal taxes by receiving all settlement money through a one-person agency.
—The Fact: As documented in reports (Jan 22, 2026), revenue was strictly divided among three parties: FANTAGIO, CHA EUNWOO individually, and the corporation "L&C". It was not funneled exclusively into a corporation to evade taxes.

4. Malicious "800 Million KRW Loan" Frame and Omission of Repayment

—The Claim: Highlighting an 800 million KRW loan under the corporate name to frame it as speculative real estate investment.
—The Fact: MBC omitted the crucial fact that this entire loan was fully repaid within just one year, distinguishing it from cases of speculative profit-seeking.

5. Distortion of Real Estate Purpose and Brother’s Business

—The Claim: The agency purchased unnecessarily large plots of land (5,300 pyeong) for speculation.
—The Fact: The site was already an established large-scale restaurant facility long before the purchase. Furthermore, the 2025 land acquisition is related to his brother’s personal business, not CHA EUNWOO’s entertainment activities. This purchase occurred after "Cha’s Gallery" had already returned its Culture and Arts Planning Business license in 2022.

6. Concealing the True Context of "Investigation Bureau 4"

—The Claim: The deployment of the 4th Investigation Bureau proves "aggressive tax evasion."
—The Fact: The investigation actually began with Namgoong Kyun, Chairman of Mirae I&G, and stock manipulation allegations involving @fantagiogroup. CHA EUNWOO’s entity was swept into the investigation as a secondary "link" because of transactions with Fantagio, not because he was the primary target.

7. Fabrication of the Registration Timeline

—The Claim: The agency operated illegally for years before registering.
—The Fact: MBC conflated the timeline of the dissolved entity with the active one. "L&C" was legally registered for Culture and Arts Planning almost immediately upon its establishment in late 2022:
- June 15, 2022: Cha's Gallery registers.
- Oct 24, 2022: L&C is established.
- Oct 31, 2022: Cha's Gallery closes and returns license.
- Dec 2, 2022: L&C officially registers its license.

Watching people still defend @fantagiogroup after this is W I L D!!!!!!!

They used an artist’s reputation as a financial lever, let the damage compound, then locked in control through CB refixing. If that doesn’t scream EXPLOITATION…I don’t know what does!!!

@fantagiogroup just exposed its entire playbook. 🪦📖💀

[chelle_CEW(fan account) @chelle_cew]

All speculation, but still an incredibly unsettling read. My head is spinning and my heart aches. It argues that Fantagio designed a structure that benefited the company financially, then allowed Eunwoo to take the public fall through selective PR, omissions, and leak patterns—using him as a human shield to protect leadership and opaque fund flows. 💔 May the truth come to light. May justice find him. He deserves peace.

[The WONDERfools rrink.twt @rrink_twt]

I truly hope Eunwoo will sue all of them fullest extent, because this is a way of protecting himself and his family.
Besides those media outlets, the individuals who leaked the information, Fantagio, and Eunwoo’s haters — even netizens who simply followed out of FOMO can also be sued. Because they have caused harm to Eunwoo and his family.
Remember, South Korea also has defamation laws.
They typed those words consciously, and even knowing the impact of what they were writing, they still chose to do it. Whether it was just to follow the crowd or simply because they enjoy badmouthing someone they don’t even know and who has never harmed them, the law must still be enforced as a form of accountability for actions they deliberately chose to take
