Since the news of being "blocked" by his management company exploded, the heartbreaking stories that the actor has revealed on previous broadcasts have been "dug" by netizens and attracted the attention of many viewers, even spreading throughout Asia.

Accordingly, on November 21, Dispatch shocked the entire entertainment industry by publishing a series of evidence that A-list star Lee Seung Gi has not received any payment for his music activities for more than 18 years. The number of profits that he was "blocked" by the management company has reached 10 billion won.

After this news spread, his statements in the past were suddenly dug up, surprising everyone.

Most recently, the moment Lee Seung Gi appeared on Mnet's MIC program that aired in November 2011 continues to become a topic of discussion. The actor has opened up about his thoughts and worries that he has to keep secret for so long that fans regret.

He said: "I often wonder if I'm a celebrity, and then ask myself if I should stop, is this job right for me,... And at those times I just wanted to run away. I wasn't able to sing well while preparing for my second album and got yelled at quite a bit."

In addition, Lee Seung Gi made headlines with his confession when he appeared on the entertainment show 2 Days & 1 Night.

The actor said: "Viewers don't care what I did yesterday and how I'm doing. Even if I stay up all night, it doesn't matter to them. I had to act like I was okay even at my worst. I always think we entertainers shouldn't show our weak side. I have to do the show well anyway to keep my promise to the viewers."

At that time, Lee Seung Gi released his 5th album titled Tonight containing several popular songs, including Time For Love and A Song To Make You Smile. In particular, the title tracks "Aren't We Friends" and "Time For Love" with narration by actress Han Hyo Joo have received warm love from the public.

Many netizens left comments in support of Lee Seung Gi as well as outraged by the agency's treatment. Some of the comments were overwhelmingly agreeable, such as, "He's that kind of guy. I feel bad that he was called a 'loss-making singer' and ridiculed by his own agency," "Lee Seung Gi is so professional. It's important for artists not to show their weak side even when they're not feeling well."

Earlier, Hook Entertainment CEO Kwon Jin Young released a statement to the media about the artist's "paycheck" scandal, saying, "Whether those controversies are true or not, I am still extremely ashamed of myself. I feel extremely ashamed and regretful that everything was my fault. Our task now is to confirm the facts regarding the stories that are currently rampant in the media in detail.

However, as we mentioned earlier, the company is currently in the process of fact-checking and taking legal actions in the future, so we ask for your understanding once again. For our part, we will refrain from expressing our views on this matter."

Lee Seung Gi is known as a multi-talented Korean artist who has taken on a variety of roles, from singer to actor to MC for entertainment programs.

In a discussion post on social media, netizens suggested that Vagabond is the work of a lifetime in the actor's career. This is also one of the most anticipated Korean titles to produce part 2.

Despite being considered to have a slower rise than other actors of his age, Lee Seung Gi still affirmed that he was "slow but sure" when he was able to "pocket" a series of impressive roles since his debut.

In 2022, Lee Seung Gi returned to the movie track with the romantic-comedy "Law Cafe", "reuniting" with Lee Se Young. The film was quickly well received and garnered a series of proud achievements thanks to the meaningful content and "surreal" chemistry of the main couple.

Despite receiving a series of positive reviews with this comeback, a part of the public said that Lee Seung Gi has not really overcome the huge shadow created by himself from his time playing Vagabond with Suzy. Talking about Vagabond, this is a much-loved action movie produced by Korea, released in 2019.

In the drama, Lee Seung Gi plays Cha Dal Gun, who specializes in action stunt scenes. But he was forced to retire as a taxi driver due to many events. After that, Father Dal Gun worked while caring for his 11-year-old grandson until disaster struck his family.

After Vagabond aired, Lee Seung Gi received a "rain" of praise for his transformational acting, especially the chemistry when paired with Suzy. His well-rounded performance in the film also earned the actor several prestigious awards at award ceremonies in his hometown.

Up to now, "movie nerds" everywhere recognize this as his life's project and have high expectations for part 2 but there is still no information from the producer. Currently, Lee Seung Gi is taking a break from "Law Cafe" and will return to the big and small screens one day.
