Singer and actor Cha Eun-woo said he paid the full amount of tax collected.
Cha Eun-woo said on his Instagram on the 8th, "I respect the procedures and results of the National Tax Service, and I paid all related taxes to prevent further confusion. We will faithfully deal with the rest of the procedures," he said in a lengthy post.
"As we have been active with the love and support of many people, we are taking this issue more seriously and deeply. If there was something I didn't look at enough, the responsibility was also on me. I will not avoid it by saying 'I didn't know' or 'It was someone's judgment' for any reason, he acknowledged his mistake.
He confessed as a reason for the establishment of a single-person corporation, "I established a corporation in the process of preparing to continue my activities more stably at a time of various changes and confusion during my activities, but now looking back, there were parts that I did not fully examine in the process, and I think the responsibility lies with me, not my family or company."
Finally, "I will check my activities in the future with more careful and strict standards so that the same problem does not repeat itself again. I will work harder and harder to become Cha Eun-woo, who takes responsibility for my choices and actions to the end," he added.
On January 22, Cha Eun-woo was notified of an additional income tax worth about 20 billion won through a high-intensity tax investigation by the four countries investigated by the National Tax Service. In addition to his agency Fantagio, the National Tax Service determined that he distributed his profits to apply a low corporate tax rate of 20% instead of personal income tax rate of up to 45%.
In response, Fantagio said, "I will explain it through due process such as tax suitability examination. We will humbly accept the results and fulfill our responsibilities according to the final judgment made by the relevant agency," he said.
I'm Cha Eun-Woo.
I sincerely apologize for the disappointment and confusion caused to my fans and many others due to the recent tax controversy related to me.
I would like to apologize once again for the delay in speaking out because I had no choice but to be cautious in speaking out in the course of various administrative procedures.
It's late, but I'd like to tell you my thoughts and positions again now.
I respect the procedures and results of the IRS, and I paid all the relevant taxes to prevent further confusion.
We will faithfully deal with the remaining procedures as well.
As we have been active with the love and support of many people, we are taking this issue more seriously and deeply.
If there was something I didn't look at enough, the responsibility was also on me. I won't shy away from saying 'I didn't know' or 'It was someone's judgment' for any reason.
I established a corporation in the process of preparing to continue my activities more stably at a time of various changes and confusion during my activities, but now that I look back, there was a part that I didn't fully look into in the process, and I think the responsibility lies with me, not my family or company.
I desperately felt that I had to look back on myself through this. Above all, I'm most sad and sorry that I've been disappointed by AROHA who trusted me.
To prevent the same problem from repeating again, I will check my activities in the future with more careful and strict standards.
I will work harder and harder to become Cha Eun-woo who takes responsibility for my choices and actions until the end.
Once again, I would like to express my deepest apologies.
Thank you for reading this long article.
