There was a reason why actor Lee Jang-woo could not reply to the contact of the supplier claiming the controversy over the receivables.

On the 17th, Lee Jang-woo's agency Hunus Entertainment said in an official statement, "In connection with the fact that the supplier tried to contact him through SNS, more than dozens of messages are received on actor Lee Jang-woo's account a day, and messages from unfollowed accounts are classified as separate "message requests," making it difficult to immediately check them."

"Accordingly, it is true that the message was not confirmed in a timely manner, but we clearly state that we did not deliberately avoid or ignore it," he said.

In addition, the agency said, "Lee Jang-woo is participating in the operation as a shareholder of Hoseokchon, but the full amount of the delivery has already been paid to Mujin Co., Ltd., the client under the contract." "Since then, Mujin has been unable to pay to Company A, causing problems," he said, adding, "There is no direct contractual relationship between Company A and Ho Seokchon or actor Lee Jang-woo."

"What was reported as if actor Lee Jang-woo did not pay is not true, and the claim that Mujin is the owner of Hoseokchon, which was mentioned in some reports, is also not true. Mujin has never held a stake in Hoseokchon and has nothing to do with actor Lee Jang-woo," he stressed.

Dispatch previously reported that distributor A, which has been supplying pig accessories to Hoseokchon, a Sundae soup restaurant run by Lee Jang-woo, has not received more than 40 million won.

In particular, company A told Lee Jang-woo in January, "About 50 million won in delivery has been delayed for more than a year. He also claimed that he sent a DM saying, "Please suggest a solution," but did not hear back from Lee Jang-woo.

However, Lee Jang-woo's agency has claimed unfairness, saying that he did not intentionally avoid contacting the supplier.

Meanwhile, Lee Jang-woo has been promoting Sundae Gutjip on various channels. In the past, he said on the YouTube channel Life 84, "I'm not going to make a lot of money from this, and I want to give happiness to people who drink," and on the MBN entertainment program Jeon Hyun-moo, "I boiled 100 heads of pigs myself." In a pot of enormous size," he said, actively promoting the store.
