Actress Moon Ga-young has shared a heartwarming update.

On the 14th, Moon Ga-young posted several selfies with her latest activities on her personal SNS, accompanied by firework emojis.

In the photos, Moon Ga-young is seen leaning comfortably on a sofa, gazing steadily at the camera. She wore a loose-fitting dark gray lettering T-shirt and added a unique touch to her understated yet stylish "effortless chic" look by pairing it with distinctive arm warmers featuring an eye-catching pattern.

Furthermore, despite her light makeup and natural appearance, Moon Ga-young effortlessly captivated onlookers with her sharp facial features and her signature alluring aura.

News of Moon Ga-young's agency transfer was reported on the 13th. She is leaving Peak J Entertainment, with which she had a contract in 2024, and is set to join Fantagio. Regarding this, a Fantagio representative told StarNews, "We are considering it positively, but nothing has been finalized yet."

Currently, Kim Seon-ho and Cha Eun-woo are affiliated with Fantagio. Recently, Cha Eun-woo faced allegations of evading approximately 200 billion won in taxes. Last year, the Seoul Regional National Tax Service's Investigation Division 4 conducted a rigorous tax audit against Cha Eun-woo and Fantagio. The National Tax Service determined that a company named A, established in the name of Cha Eun-woo's mother, Ms. Choi, was essentially a "paper company" with no actual substance. It was reported that high-income advertising model fees and appearance fees, which should have belonged to Cha Eun-woo, were dispersed through a fictitious service contract between Company A and his agency, allowing him to be taxed at a relatively low corporate tax rate instead of the personal income tax rate of up to 45%, thereby evading taxes. Consequently, the National Tax Service notified Cha Eun-woo of a tax deficiency of 200 billion won, which is the largest amount ever recovered from a Korean celebrity in a tax evasion case. It was later reported that Cha Eun-woo paid all the taxes notified for collection last month. The amount Cha Eun-woo paid is said to be around 130 billion won. It appears that a refund was issued for some of the corporate income tax and value-added tax previously paid, as they were recognized as being subject to double taxation.

Kim Seon-ho also faced allegations in February of evading income by operating a family-owned company, similar to Cha Eun-woo. In response, Fantagio explained, "The one-person company was established in the past for the purpose of producing plays and engaging in play-related activities; it was never established with the intent of deliberate tax avoidance or evasion." They added, "As Kim Seon-ho transferred to Fantagio, actual business operations have not been conducted for over a year, and currently, procedures to close the business are underway in accordance with relevant laws and regulations."

However, not long after, it was revealed that Kim Seon-ho had received settlement funds from his former agency through the family company. Consequently, Kim Seon-ho's side apologized, stating, "As a proactive measure to correct the naive management of the company at the time, we have returned all past corporate card usage records, family salaries, and the corporate vehicle. Regarding the settlement amounts received in the past through that company, we have completed the additional payment of personal income tax on top of the corporate income tax already paid. We are currently proceeding with the business closure procedures, and the administrative process is expected to be finalized shortly."
