I asked this question for Ddankong's PopCrave interview for Incense promotions and Bin answered this..
Look at all the beautiful flowers Arohas left for you. The scent that you love. Bin-ah you are loved by so many people ๐ You would have loved the Nesquik trail too.
@DanielleMaterra It sounds like a plot for a Kdrama except THIS happened in real life! News outlets around the world only reported the click bait headlines. People should continue to speak up and defend Eunwoo.
All the while Eunwoo was blamed, maligned, and became their scapegoat. This is sooo infuriating! Meanwhile his reputation has been damaged and tarnished. Truth will eventually prevail!
BREAKING: Korean media now confirms the Cheongdam restaurant linked to Cha Eunwoo rumors is NOT owned by his family. It is owned by Fantagio and operated by Fantagio ๐จ โผ๏ธโฌ๏ธ
Fantagio statement:
โThe currently operating โEojeon Cheongdamโ is a completely different corporation from Ganghwaโs โEojeon Charcoal-Grilled Eel.โ The store is operated by Fantagio M and has no relation to Cha Eunwooโs family.โ
Meaning: The company controlling the store is his agency, not a personal or family entity.
This completely destroys the narrative that Eunwoo or his family were hiding income through a restaurant or shifting money through relatives.
The original family-run Ganghwa eel restaurant was closed. Fantagio later reused the brand name under its own corporate structure. Separate owner. Separate operator. Separate legal entity.
Letโs be very clear:
When a business is owned and operated by an artistโs agency, any revenue, accounting, and tax handling falls under corporate management systems, not the individual artistโs personal control. Which means he was legally within his right to file this under corporate tax treatment for this business.
Yet multiple outlets framed it as a โfamily restaurantโ tied to his tax issue.
That is false. Yet headlines pushed family-business implications anyway.
That is irresponsible reporting.
This matters because it confirms what many of us have been saying:
This case is about tax interpretation and classification, not concealment, not shell businesses, not โevasion.โ
No court ruling.
No criminal finding.
No proven income diversion.
Media outlets that amplified unverified speculation about โfamily restaurantsโ owe corrections immediately.
Facts over rumors.
Law over headlines.
Hold media accountable โ

@hyuked_onastro It's not just Bin. But what's happening to Eunwoo too. Media sensationalizing every headline, vilifying and labelling him when no cases have been filed yet.
@Bundesliga_Base Where specifically in his statement did he admit to the allegations? In Korea, public figures apologize because they are role models. Let the investigation run its course. No criminal case has been filed. Maybe it was lost in translation for you.
Eunwoo posting an apology today speaks volumes on his character. He chose to face the investigation and accusations head on rather than running away from it. They can't keep a good man down. Eunwoo you have lots of people who support and believe in you.
@kchartsmaster People need to read this again. Eunwoo facing the issue head on means he is taking responsibility and cooperating instead of running away from it. An apology is NOT an admission of guilt. Innocent until proven guilty.
@ASTRO_Staff Being in the room of memories feels like half of their life just flashed right in front of their eyes. No wonder they (and we๐ข) felt emotional. Thank you for giving them this and bringing them together ๐
