Fantagio has once again addressed the recent controversy surrounding Kim Seonho's one-person company. The agency apologized for the trouble caused by the lack of understanding of how to run a company.

On the 4th, Fantagio released an official statement explaining the background behind the establishment of Kim Seonho's one-person company and the measures currently being taken. The agency stated, "Kim Seonho established the company in January 2024 for acting activities and theater production. He received settlements for his activities through that company until he signed an exclusive contract with Fantagio in February 2025."

Regarding the controversy, the agency explained, "After realizing that running the company could cause misunderstandings, there have been no real business activities through that company for over a year."

In particular, the agency also addressed the allegations of tax evasion and personal use of money, emphasizing, "We took action early to correct the mistakes that was made due the lack of understanding of how to run a company." According to the company, Kim Seonho has returned all money from the past company card he used, the salaries paid, and also the company vehicle. In addition, regarding the income he previously received from the one-person company, Fantagio added, "In addition, the extra personal income tax has now been fully paid as well on top of the corporate tax."

The one-person company is currently going through administrative procedures of closing down, and it will be finished soon. Fantagio clarified, "Since signing an exclusive contract with Kim Seonho in February 2025, settlement payments have been transferred directly to him as an individual. His activities with our agency are completely unrelated to the one-person company."

In closing, the agency stated, "Kim Seonho is deeply reflecting on having established and running the one-person company while not fully understanding how it works. We sincerely bow our heads in apology for causing confusion and concern to fans and the public."

The controversy began on the 1st, when Sports Kyunghyang reported that Kim Seonho had established and operated a one-person company registered at his home address in Yongsan-gu, with his parents listed as the executives. The report raised suspicions of income diversion and tax evasion, claiming that Kim Seonho paid fake salaries to his parents through the company and used the company card for personal use. The issue further intensified as it followed closely after news that his labelmate, Cha Eunwoo, was recently hit with a large tax penalty over a similar family-owned company structure.

Below is the full statement from Fantagio:

Hello, this is Fantagio, the agency for actor Kim Seonho.

We would like to share additional facts and our official position regarding Kim Seonho's one-person company mentioned in recent reports.

Establishment and Operation of the Company
Kim Seonho established the one-person company in January 2024 for acting activities and theater production.
Following its establishment in January 2024, settlements for his activities were paid through this one-person company until he signed an exclusive contract with Fantagio in February 2025.

Suspension of the Company's Operations
After Kim Seonho realized that running the company could cause misunderstandings, there have been no real business activities through that company for over a year.

Exclusive Contract with Fantagio
Since signing an exclusive contract with Kim Seonho in February 2025, settlement payments have been transferred directly to him as an individual. We clearly state that his activities with our agency are completely unrelated to the one-person company.

As for the settlements he previously received in the past, he has completed the additional payment of personal income tax on top of the corporate tax. The company is in the process of being closed down, which is expected to be finished soon.

Kim Seonho's next melodrama with Suzy in jeopardy? ... 'Delusion' side: "Release schedule hasn't been decided yet"

As Kim Seonho faces allegations of tax evasion, production team of Disney+ 'Delusion' shared a cautious statement regarding its release schedule.

A representative from Disney+ told Xports News on the 3rd, "The specific release date for 'Delusion' hasn't been confirmed yet. We will let you know if there are any updates."

'Delusion' is set in Gyeongseong in 1935. The drama follows the story of Yoon Yiho, a painter who is commissioned to paint the portrait of Song Junghwa, a mysterious and alluring woman who hasn't been seen for over 50 years. It will be directed by Han Jaerim, known for his previous work 'Emergency declaration,' and starred by Kim Seonho and Suzy as the least, making it a highly anticipated project.

'Delusion' was included in the Disney+ release lineup for this year, but no specific date had been announced yet. Recently, speculation has arisen that the release schedule might be affected by the allegations of tax evasion surrounding the lead actor, Kim Seonho.

Previously, a news outlet reported that Kim Seonho started and operated a theater production company registered at his home address in Yongsan-gu, Seoul. Reports claimed that the company paid monthly salaries ranging from several million to tens of millions KRW to his parents and that his parents used the company credit card for living expenses and entertainment costs, sparking suspicions of tax evasion.

Regarding this, Fantagio stated, "The company in question was established for theater production and related activities. It was not created with the intention of reducing or evading tax deliberately." They added, "Since he moved agencies, there has been no business activities for about a year. The company is currently in the process of being shut down." However, rather than settling the issue, this explanation has only intensified the controversy.

Meanwhile, besides 'Delusion,' Kim Seonho is also awaiting the release of the six-episode drama 'Unfriend,' in which he stars alongside Park Gyuyoung. He is also set to star in the upcoming tvN drama 'May the Congressman Protect You.'

Kim Seonho, like Cha Eunwoo, received payments through a company

SOURCE: [단독] 김선호도 차은우처럼, 법인으로 정산금 받았다

On the 3rd, it was confirmed that Kim Seonho received payments for his entertainment activities through 'SH2,' a one-person company he started in January 2024, while still under his previous agency.

The reason Kim Seonho went so far to create a company to receive payments is being described as 'tax laundering.' If the income were recorded under Kim Seonho as an individual, an income tax rate of up to 49.5% would apply. However, if it was treated as the company's income, he would benefit from a corporate tax of up to 19%.

An official from his previous agency stated, "We simply just transferred the payment into the account he asked for."

This is considered as a clear act of tax avoidance, not tax saving, by taking advantages of differences in tax rates. Since the company's registered address is the same as Kim Seonho's residence, it is suspected to be a 'paper company.' Therefore, there is a high chance that all the money received through this company will be seen as 'diverted income.'

Lawyer Noh Jong-eon from Law Firm Jonjae stated, "Looking at the cases of Cha Eunwoo and Kim Seonho, moving income through unregistered companies is a key factor that undermines transparent tax management. It's time for relevant authorities to do thorough investigations and strict oversight in order to stop tax evasion that exploits these legal loopholes."

The explanation provided by his agency, Fantagio, also ended up backfiring him.

On the 1st, Fantagio responded to the tax evasion allegations surrounding Kim Seonho, saying, "The former one-person company was established for theater production and related activities. It was absolutely not established with the intention of reducing or evading tax deliberately."

Kim Seonho also failed to complete the mandatory registration as 'Popular Culture and Arts Planning Business.' Receiving payments (management revenue) without being registered constitutes a violation of the 'Popular Culture and Arts Industry Development Act' and may result in imprisonment of up to 2 years.

Lawyer Noh added, "Looking at Cha Eunwoo and Kim Seonho's cases, it's becoming clear that their failure to register as a 'Popular Culture and Arts Planning Business' is more than just a simple administrative mistake. It is being used by high-income celebrities as a way to avoid taxes."

Regarding this, Fantagio stated, "It is true that he temporarily received payments (from his previous agency) after the company was established."

Kim Seonho's former agency: "We just transferred money to the place he asked for"

SOURCE: 김선호 前 소속사 측 "배우가 요청한 곳에 정산금 입금했을 뿐" [공식]

It has been confirmed that Kim Seonho received payments for his entertainment activities through a one-person company he established in January 2024 during his time with his previous agency.

Kim Seonho is reported to have received the money under that company's name instead of his own name. If he took the money as personal income, an income tax rate of up to 49.5% would apply. However, by taking it as the company's income, the maximum corporate tax rate of 19% would apply, which significantly reduce the tax burden.

The former agency told TV Daily, "We just transferred money to the place he asked for."

However, suspicions have been raised that the company might be a 'paper company' with no real business activities because it's registered address is the same as Kim Seonho's residence. In such a case, receiving payments through the company could be seen as a way to avoid personal taxes.

Additionally, it has been confirmed that Kim Seonho did not register his company as 'Popular Culture and Arts Planning Business,' which is required by law to receive management-related payments. Receiving management-related payments without this registration may constitute a violation of the law and could lead to criminal punishment.

"If there's no problem, why shut it down?" Kim Seonho remains silent regarding parents' salaries and using corporate card for personal use ... "Explanation that misses the point"

As Kim Seonho became embroiled in controversy over allegations of operating a family company to avoid taxes, his agency responded by saying, "The company wasn't established for tax evasion." However, critics point out that the explanation is missing the point, as the agency remained silent on the most important details, including paying salaries to his parents and using the company credit card for personal use.

On the 1st, Kim Seonho's agency, Fantagio, stated, "Kim Seonho is currently active under an exclusive contract with Fantagio. He is faithfully following all legal and tax-related procedures for his current contract and activities. There are absolutely no problems with the contract or activities between Kim Seonho and Fantagio."

The agency emphasized, "The former one-person company mentioned in the report was established for theater production and related activities. It was absolutely not established with the intention of deliberately reducing or evading tax."

Earlier that day, a news report claimed that following Fantagio's Cha Eunwoo, Kim Seonho was also suspected of engaging in a tax reduction (tax evasion)' using a family company. According to the report, Kim Seonho started a performance-planning company in January 2024 at the address of his home in Yongsan-gu, Seoul, and listed himself as the CEO.

The report further alleged that Kim Seonho's parents served as the director and auditor of the company. He was suspected of paying them salaries ranging from millions to tens of million of KRW and used the company's credit card for living expenses and entertainment. This led to criticism that the company may be a 'paper company' with no actual business activity.

Regarding the company, Fantagio stated, "Since Kim Seonho moved to Fantagio, the company has not done any business activities for about a year. The company is being closed down according to the law and regulations. We will continue to follow all laws and do our best to make sure his work continues without unnecessary misunderstandings."

However, netizens are showing a cold reaction, saying, "If there's no problem, why shut the business down?" "There's no explanation about his parents' salaries or using the company's credit card for entertainment spending," and "Is this a second Cha Eunwoo case?" Previously, Cha Eunwoo also faced criticism for not giving a clear explanation about why his company address was registered at his parents' eel restaurant in Ganghwa.

Meanwhile, Kim Seonho took time off in 2021 following a controversy regarding his personal life. He returned to activities in 2023 with the movie 'The Childe.' He recently made a successful comeback by topping Netflix's global rankings with 'Can This Love Be Translated?,' but this new 'family company' controversy is putting his career in danger once again.

Kim Seonho reveals why he didn't attend his 'Hometown Cha-Cha-Cha' co-star Shin Minah's wedding: "I sent a congratulatory message"

SOURCE: 김선호, '갯차' 신민아 결혼식 불참 이유 밝혔다…"축하한다고 연락만" [엑's 인터뷰]

Actor Kim Seonho congratulated Shin Minah, who was his co-star five years ago.

On the 22nd, Kim Seonho had an interview for the Netflix 'Can This Love Be Translated?' at a cafe in Seoul.

'Can This Love Be Translated?' is a romantic comedy that unfolds when multilingual interpreter named Joo Hojin (played by Kim Seonho) is assigned to work with a global superstar named Cha Muhee (played by Go Younjung).

This marks Kim Seonho's return to romantic comedy after five years, since his 2021 drama 'Hometown Cha-Cha-Cha.'

Regarding this, Kim Seonho said, “I didn’t choose ‘Can This Love Be Translated?’ just because it’s a romantic comedy. I chose it because, after reading the script, it felt like it's a role I could do well and really wanted to try." He added, “The role of an interpreter, and especially the idea that ‘everyone has their own language,’ was very appealing. I also like the writers’ previous works, so I wanted to do it. I did my best for this project."

Regarding working with the Hong Sisters, Kim Seonho shared, "There was a sense of unpredictability. The direction the writers were leading the story was very clear in the script. Hojin’s lines may look a bit literary, but I really liked that kind of beautiful writing. The clarity and confidence in their writing made me realize, 'These writers are really different.'"

Meanwhile, on the 20th of last month, Shin Minah and Kim Woobin got married after dating for 10 years.

Since 'Hometown Cha-Cha-Cha' was so popular, many fans wondered if Kim Seonho attended the wedding. Regarding this, he explained, "I was filming in Vietnam at the time," and expressed his regret over not being able to attend. He added, "I am so happy for her and am cheering for her. Even though I couldn’t go, I did reach out to her."

All episodes of 'Can This Love Be Translated?' are now available on Netflix.

Kim Seonho Reunites with Suzy After 4 Years… Cast as Male Lead in 'Delusion'

https://m.entertain.naver.com/article/421/0007730690

Actor Kim Seonho is in discussions after receiving an offer to play the male lead in director Han Jae-rim's 'Delusion.'

According to News1's investigation on the 14th, Suzy has been cast as the female lead in 'Delusion,' and Kim Seonho is being considered as her co-star. Kim Seonho is expected to play the character Yoon Yiho, a painter who is the protagonist and Suzy's counterpart.

Kim Seonho and Suzy previously worked together in the 2020 tvN drama 'Start-Up.'

'Delusion' is set in Gyeongseong in 1935 and Shanghai in the 1800s, and it follows the mysterious events that unfold as painter Yoon Yiho is commissioned to paint a portrait of the captivating vampire woman Song Junghwa, whose true identity is gradually revealed over time.

-Every thing is controversial these days...

-They should protect their artist at all costs, especially since they still have time left in their contract. It's their job. I don't think we should be hating on his agency for doing its job.

-It's okay, Kim Seonho can stay in Salt Ent. But Park Shinhye and Kim Jiwon need to leave that agency as soon as possible.

-I don't want to hate the agency. It's not like they're shielding him because they actually like him. It's their job.

-F*ck, they're so quick with their official statement this time...

-Whatever...

-I feel bad for the other actors and actresses under that company...

-Wasn't it that Youtuber reporter who first mentioned about his contract with Salt Ent. expiring?

-I'm so sick of all of this shit...

-No wonder why they're trying so hard to save Kim Seonho's career...

-No wonder why there's a lot of articles about him this morning...

-Good luck. Looks like their company is doing such a great job, they're trying to save their artists.

-I really don't want to see him on TV ever again... I don't care about him at all...

Kim Seonho's official statement

 [Salt Ent Official Statement]

Hello, this is Salt Ent. 

We apologize for causing people to be concerned because of Actor Kim Seonho's personal affairs. 

We apologize to many people who are disappointed and harmed by this incident. 

Once again, we apologize for causing people to be concerned because of this unpleasant incident. 

[Kim Seonho's Official Statement]

Hello, this is Kim Seonho. 

I would like to apologize for the delay in my official statement. 

When I saw my name on the news a few days ago, I experienced extreme fear for the first time, which is also why I'm only now releasing this statement. 

We were in a relationship and we had good feelings towards each other. However, I hurt her because of my incompetence and inconsiderate behavior in the middle of that. 

I wanted to meet her and apologize to her in person, but I'm unable to do that now and I'm waiting for that opportunity to do so to come. In the meantime, I hope I can deliver my sincere apology towards her through this letter. 

I apologize for causing such disappointment to everyone who has believed and supported me now. I can only stand here as Actor Kim Seonho because of those who have supported me, and I have forgotten that point. I also apologize for causing harm to all crews and staff who have worked with me, who still lack a lot. I sincerely apologize to everyone who has been hurt because of me. 

I know this letter is full of rambling and wouldn't fully reach people's hearts, but I'm expressing my sincerity through this letter. 

I deeply apologize.

-Whoa... He admits to all the accusations made towards him?

-He doesn't even make any excuses...

-Whoa... So that was all real. I hoped it wasn't real because he's one of the actors that I really liked, thoughㅋㅋㅋ Bye

-It took him days to apologize and this is what he could only come up with...???

-Seems like he's only releasing this statement because he couldn't come down to a settlement with the victim...

-So that was all real. Looking at how he apologized, it seems like the evidence the woman had was so strong that his career would be destroyed the moment she shows it to everyone.

-Finallyㅋㅋㅋ Well, at least he doesn't make any excuses and went straight to the point. Seems like the evidence was really strong. 

-I hope he would retire from the entertainment industry. I don't want to see his face ever again. 

-So... He's basically saying that all the rumors out there were real...?

-I hope no one compliments him for making such a great apology letter^^

-What the heck? So he really did all of that?ㅋㅋㅋㅋ Crazy jerk, I hope I will never see you again!

-What a nice and simple apology letter~ Goodbye~

-Whoa... So it was all real. I guess we can never trust celebrities. 

-Seems like he tried to settle with the victim, but couldn't and things kept on getting bigger. That's why he just decided to apologize. 

-To those who hate on the victim and shield him towards the end... You guys should be ashamed of yourself.
