Actor Kim Seung-woo, husband of actress Kim Nam-ju, has been filed against on charges of "theft" and is undergoing police investigation.

According to Il-Yo Shinmun on the 12th, complainant A claimed around July that "Kim Seung-woo took 22 million won in cash from an entertainment club located in Cheongdam-dong in October 2021," and submitted a complaint to Seoul Gangnam Police Station.

The media also reported that A is "serving a sentence at Gwangju Prison as an economic criminal."

In this regard, Kim Seung-woo's side told Il-Yo Shinmun that it was "a memory error by the complainant who is suffering physically and mentally," explaining, "It is true that he took the money as a joke, but he returned more than that amount."

However, A maintains the claim that "Kim Seung-woo secretly took 22 million won in cash from his wallet while A had left their bag inside the room and briefly stepped away."

On the other hand, Kim Seung-woo claimed innocence by sending a photo showing records of transferring 25 million won to a corporation owned by A in three installments between March 21, 2023, and April 21, 2026.

As of now, no final judgment has been issued by law enforcement authorities regarding the theft charges against Kim Seung-woo.
