It is reported that singer and actor Lee Seung-gi is in conflict with a construction company, represented by Cha Ga-won, over a newly built building.

On the 10th, The Fact reported that Lee Seung-gi recently constructed a five-story building in Jangchung-dong, Jung District, Seoul, but is currently unable to enter due to the construction company exercising its lien rights.

According to the report, Lee Seung-gi purchased the land several years ago and began construction, completing the registration by the end of last month. However, the building now has a banner stating "Lien Rights Exercised" and access-restriction fencing in place.

The construction company that erected the banner stating "Lien Rights Exercised" is PIAK Construction, represented by Cha Ga-won, chairman of PIAK Group. Cha (Chairman) is the representative of One Hundred Label, the parent company of Big Planet Made, whose exclusive contract with Lee Seung-gi was terminated. PIAK Construction exercised its lien rights on the grounds that it had not received the final payment.

In response, Lee Seung-gi's side reportedly claims that while there is indeed an outstanding balance, they were unable to conduct a defect inspection and that the construction company demanded additional construction costs without prior discussion.

The conflict between Lee Seung-gi and Cha (Chairman) dates back to 2024. At that time, Lee Seung-gi signed an exclusive contract with Big Planet Made, a subsidiary of One Hundred Label, represented by Cha (Chairman), but in April applied to the court for an injunction to suspend the validity of the exclusive contract due to reasons such as non-payment of settlement funds. The application was granted in May.

Following this, the two became entangled in a "rental conflict." Lee Seung-gi claims that although he moved into a high-end villa in Hannam-dong at Cha (Chairman)'s suggestion, he was demanded to pay a deposit of 10.5 billion won, which is more than three times the market rate.

Regarding this matter, Cha (Chairman)'s side countered that Lee Seung-gi requested a rental contract instead of receiving the exclusive contract fee as collateral to avoid regulations and tax issues related to multiple property ownership, and that the company provided significant benefits such as interest support.

Meanwhile, Lee Seung-gi's wife, actress Lee Da-in, gave birth to a son on the 7th. With this, the couple now has one daughter and one son.
