It has been argued that rapper Axe has not paid for three years despite the court's compulsory adjustment to pay the unpaid payment of precious metals to overseas jewelry companies.
According to the Munhwa Ilbo on the 3rd, Yongbum Kim and Lee Sang-yeop, a foreign lawyer at the law firm Ohkims, who served as legal representatives for the jewelry company, issued a statement saying, "The axe has been decided to repay the debt in installments three times following the court's decision to force adjustment, but so far, it has been paid once and the rest of the debt is still not fulfilled."
Mr. A, who runs a jewelry company, filed a lawsuit in October 2019 against Ilenere Records, the former agency of the axe, for not paying $34,740 worth of seven precious metals, including gold rings and gold necklaces, worth $206,000 three times between September and November 2018.
The Civil Appeals Division 4 of the Seoul Southern District Court accepted most of A's claims in July 2022 and ordered Axe to pay $34,740 and delayed damages three times by January 6 of the following year. In addition, in case of delay, the unpaid payment and delayed damage were immediately added.

However, Mr. A claimed that the axe reimbursed $11,580 only once in September 2022. According to A, the remaining balance of the axe is $23,160, and the delayed damage is $32,623.55 which is about 49.34 million won in Korean won.
At the same time, Mr. A said, "The attitude of not faithfully implementing the court's decision is a serious neglect of the judicial order," citing the fact that Axe has been staying in the United States for a long time due to economic reasons and generating a considerable amount of profits such as copyright fees.
A's side is also reportedly considering legal action for the label 88 HiRecords, which Axe recently established with his lover Lee Hi.
Meanwhile, Axe and Lee Hi revealed their romantic relationship on the 28th of last month. It is known that the two have been dating since 2022 after forming a relationship through the MBC entertainment program Infinite Challenge in 2016.
