Lee Seung Givs HOOK resumes arguments today (7th) after ruling on ”settlement fee issue” is overturned

The legal battle between singer Lee Seung Gi and his former management office HOOK Entertainment has resumed. According to legal circles, the 20th Civil Division of the Seoul Central District Court has decided to resume arguments on January 14th.
It was reported that the sentencing scheduled for the 17th was cancelled. The trial will resume today (7th). Lee Seung Gi left HOOK Entertainment, the company he was affiliated with, in November 2022.
She has been accused of not being paid for her music and of fraudulent advertising fees, and claims that CEO Kwon Jin Young has gaslighted her by calling her a "negative singer," and the dispute continues.
In addition, HOOK CEO Kwon Jin-young and other financial directors were charged with violating the Act on Aggravated Punishment of Certain Economic Crimes (embezzlement in business),
In response, HOOK filed a lawsuit against Lee Seung Gi for allegedly violating the law on aggravated punishment of fixed economic crimes (fraud). In addition to the 1.3 billion won (approximately 130 million yen) already paid, HOOK also filed a lawsuit against Lee Seung Gi for allegedly violating the law on aggravated punishment of fixed economic crimes (fraud).
The company paid a total of 5.4 billion won (approximately 543.7 million yen), including 2.9 billion won (approximately 292 million yen) in debt and 1.2 billion won (approximately 120 million yen) in late interest, and filed a lawsuit to confirm the non-existence of the debt.
The lawsuit in which arguments are being resumed was filed by HOOK, and Lee Seung Gi's side has argued that advertising fees and other payments have not been settled.
Lee Seung Gi said, "I'm glad that the 'Lee Seung Gi Incident Prevention Act' was passed recently. I was young and I pursued my dreams.
We respectfully ask that you please watch over our juniors who will be debuting in so that they do not suffer any pain when it comes to settlements."
