Overview

  • Reports said the company was registered at his home with his parents listed as executives, prompting allegations of tax-reduction tactics.
  • Fantagio says Kim returned corporate card records, family salary payments, and a company vehicle as part of corrective steps.
  • Since February 2025, all settlements have been paid to Kim as an individual, and the agency says the company had no role in their contract.
  • Brand fallout has begun, with Beanpole removing promotional content featuring Kim and Disney+ stating the release plans for Portraits of Delusion remain undecided.
  • The agency says no formal notice of an additional tax assessment has been received, as heightened scrutiny of celebrity corporate structures continues following the Cha Eun-woo case.
