It's a broken heart of fans.

Cheering comments are pouring in for Cha Eun-woo, a member and actor of boy group Astro who is embroiled in suspicions of tax evasion of 20 billion won.

Currently, Cha Eun-woo's recent post on his personal SNS is a video to promote the music video for "Sweet Papaya," the track of his second mini-album "ELSE," released on November 21 last year. It was uploaded on November 28 of the same year and has been a long time, but the comment window is hot.

Fans abroad, not domestic ones, are saying in each country's language, 'You're what I believe in. Everything will be fine. "Way to go". "Dear Eunwoo, everything will be fine. I'll always support you up close', 'I want you to know that there are people who really see you', and 'You're not alone. I believe in you, respect you, and I will be with you with constant support,' 'I'm with you until the end no matter what,' and 'Living by life, there are times when you make wrong choices unintentionally, and there are twists and turns in your life. In the meantime, I've been running forward, but I'm supporting Cha Eun-woo by leaving comments such as "I hope it's an opportunity to control my mind and put it down comfortably."

Earlier in the first half of last year, Cha Eun-woo received a high-intensity investigation by the Seoul Regional Tax Office on tax evasion charges. Even though there was originally an agency, they created a separate family company and evaded taxes by using a method of lowering taxes in an expedient manner. Cha Eun-woo reportedly shared the income earned by Fantagio, A corporation and himself after Fantagio signed a service contract to support entertainment activities with corporation A, which was created by his mother Choi.

Therefore, the National Tax Service judged A corporation as a so-called "paper company" that did not actually provide services, and predicted that Cha Eun-woo and his mother set up a non-substantial A corporation to reduce income tax, which reached 45%, and distributed income to be subject to a corporate tax rate that is more than 20 percentage points lower than the income tax rate.

In conclusion, the National Tax Service determined that the profits of corporation A eventually went to Cha Eun-woo, and Cha Eun-woo did not pay more than 20 billion won in income tax. However, Cha Eun-woo's side is reportedly waiting for the results of the "complete tax review" filed against the National Tax Service's decision, saying, "It is not a paper company that has no substance, but a formal registration company for the pop culture and arts planning business."

Regarding Cha Eun-woo's alleged tax evasion of 20 billion won, Fantagio said on the 22nd, "The main issue is whether the corporation established by Cha Eun-woo's mother is subject to real taxation, and it is not currently finalized and announced, and we will actively explain the issues related to legal interpretation and application in accordance with due process."

The artist and tax representative will cooperate faithfully so that the process can be completed as soon as possible, Fantagio said. "Cha Eun-woo promises to faithfully fulfill his tax returns and legal obligations as a member of the people in the future."
