SOURCE: [단독] '200억 탈세 논란' 차은우, 최근 휴가 후 복귀…군대서 직접 입장낼까
As 'soldier' Cha Eunwoo's past is being dug up and attention is focused on his every move, it has been reported that he recently took a leave from the military and has now returned to his unit.
According to OSEN on the 26th, Cha Eunwoo was confirmed to have taken a leave earlier this month and has now returned. Since he has been serving for about 6 to 7 months, he most likely took a regular leave and is believed to have spent the time privately.
Cha Eunwoo's recent leave came after he was notified by the National Tax Service of additional taxes exceeding 20 billion KRW. In just 2 weeks after he returned to his unit, the news broke and caused a major stir not only in the entertainment industry but to society as well.
Right now, Fantagio has remained silent beyond their initial statement, saying that they are 'unable to confirm anything.' As an active-duty soldier, Cha Eunwoo is also not in a position to freely engage in entertainment-related activities. However, given the seriousness of this matter, attention is focused on whether he will give a short statement through his agency or personally post an apology on the social media.
Meanwhile, before his enlistment in July last year, Cha Eunwoo was investigated by the Investigation Bureau 4 of the Seoul Regional Tax Office over alleged tax evasion. He was also notified of additional taxes exceeding 20 billion KRW. This is the largest tax fine ever imposed to a celebrity in South Korea.
