[Official] Singer PSY, whose song ”Gangnam Style” became a huge hit, has his house seized due to unpaid fines? He explains, ”We just checked late... We're preparing for construction work”

Singer PSY has offered an explanation regarding allegations that he was forced to pay compulsory fees for unauthorized changes in use and extensions to his home, and that he failed to pay these fees, leading to his house being seized.
On the 25th, a media outlet reported that PSY had previously been ordered to pay a fine for failing to carry out a corrective investigation into illegal buildings, but that he had not paid the fine and the house he was living in was seized.
According to the report, PSY moved into a two-storey apartment in the luxury building "The House" in UN Village, Hannam-dong, Yongsan-gu, Seoul, in September 2008.
He bought the office space next door for around 200 million won and another for around 370 million won, where he lived until 2020, and then rented it out after moving.

A complaint was filed that the rooms had been connected and expanded without permission to be used as one house, and after verifying the facts, the Yongsan District Office issued a notice of corrective measures to PSY and his wife.
There were also suspicions that they had installed reinforced concrete inside the house and extended it without permission. However, PSY and his wife did not comply with the corrective measures order, and a performance enforcement fine was imposed. They did not pay this for over a year, and the house was repossessed.
It was reported that in October, PSY paid the enforcement fee and the seizure was lifted. However, the corrective action order has not yet been implemented, and PSY is still unable to move into the house.
The media reported that his property had been seized and that he had overdue fines, and that he had prepared a new home worth around 10 billion won.

When Woos moved in, the owner gave him a very nice new house and he lived there for over 17 years," he said, explaining that there had been no changes to the use or additions to the property since it was sold to him.
After the lawsuit was filed, the company said it became aware of the illegal additions to the building during the initial construction.
We are currently coordinating with the district office and negotiating with the construction company together with the villa owners to prepare for construction work to correct the illegally expanded areas. In addition, the enforcement fee was overdue due to a delayed confirmation of the notice.
As of now, the full amount has been paid," he added.
