For information, in early November 2022, a report made by Lee Seung Gi was revealed.

He sent a content certification to Hook Entertainment to request transparent disclosure of payments against him.

Then, one of South Korean media, Dispatch published a report stating that Lee Seung Gi had never received a payment for the playback of his songs on a digital platform from the agency.

Through his legal representative, Lee Seung Gi is also rumored to have been insulted and threatened when he asked for profit sharing.

For the Dispatch news, Hook Entertainment issued a rebuttal and claimed that they had checked all the financial details in question with Lee Seung Gi, and had paid off all of his debts during the exclusive contract renewal in 2021.

Most recently, there was a search and confiscation at Hook Entertainment's office by the National Police's Heavy Crime Investigation Division.
