In January 2021, Lee Seung Gi asked the company to settle the bill but only received answers such as: "You're just a small singer, how can you pay?", "The album promotion fee is very expensive", "We told the accountant team to prepare the settlement data, But the person in charge didn't want to do it, so he didn't."

Following Dispatch's article, Hook Entertainment said, "We are trying to resolve the issue smoothly without causing misunderstanding between the two parties."

Hook Entertainment currently manages a series of artists such as Park Min Young, Lee Seung Gi, Lee Seo Jin, Lee Sun Hee, and Youn Yuh Jung. The sudden police raid of 1 entertainment company is rare, so the audience can't help but wonder the real reason behind it.

According to Nate, Lee Seung Gi is a multi-talented artist who has not yet established a firm foothold in certain fields. He debuted as a singer in 2004, became known for his role in the film "Famous Princesses" and constantly participated in hosting TV shows.

After the success of "Famous Princesses", Lee Seung Gi is expected to appear in many hit movies. However, except for "Vagabond", his subsequent projects such as "My girlfriend is a fox", "The Bright Heir", "Journey to the Flower" ... did not resonate as expected by the audience.

Up to now, Lee Seung Gi has not really made a mark in the eyes of the audience despite his acting being evaluated at a stable level. According to Nate, Lee Seung Gi has not succeeded in choosing the right script, so he has not shown his full ability and charisma as an actor.

Similar to acting, Lee Seung Gi has not impressed in the variety segment. Especially, after Lee Seung Gi publicly dated actress Lee Da In, his career plummeted.

Lee Seung Gi has participated in SBS's "All The Butlers" since 2017. However, after the actor confirmed dating Lee Da In, viewership of the show trended down. In the first season, the viewership of "All The Butlers" reached 21%, but by 2021, the rating was only 9%.

In May 2021, the news of the two actors dating was revealed by the media. However, some of Lee Seung Gi's fans were opposed to the relationship out of concern that his clean image would suffer.

The story involves Lee Da In's family being allegedly involved in a financial scandal. Her mother, veteran actor Kyeon Mi Ri, was investigated for stock manipulation, while her stepfather Lee Hong Heon was suspected of insider trading.

Despite repeated rumors of a breakup, Lee Seung Gi has stated that the two are still in a strong relationship, despite fans' protests, saying, "I think the past year was a year when we hurt each other and lacked communication. So, after much deliberation, I finally opened up.

The first reason I don't talk much is because I believe my thoughts won't be clearly communicated in emotional terms. I think doing so will only lead to bigger misunderstandings and wounds.

Secondly, I am afraid that what I say will be distorted into more rumors, which will hurt many people. So I hope you understand why I'm silent."
