Actress Kim Tae-hee’s side has started to explain about the tax collection.
On the 1st, the agency Story J Company announced an official position, saying, “We are informing you to correct matters related to actress Kim Tae-hee’s tax.”
According to reports from some media outlets, as a result of an irregular tax investigation conducted by the National Tax Service on the same day, the status of Kim Tae-hee’s tax collection was discovered. The estimated amount is known to be in the hundreds of millions of dollars.
Regarding this, the agency said, “Over the past few years, Kim Tae-hee has been faithfully taking care of tax issues and faithfully paying taxes in accordance with the laws of the tax authorities.” It happened when the client side paid the advertising model fee at the time when it was delayed.”
“Since it was an advertising model contract, of course, the model fee was deposited to the former agency, and after the agency contract expired, it was deposited to Kim Tae-hee,” he said. Due to the disagreement between each other that it should be viewed as the individual sales of the actor, not the actor himself, he only paid an additional portion related to tax. There was nothing unsavory about this, but we want to make it clear that additional taxes were incurred and we faithfully paid them.”
The National Tax Service (NTS) is conducting an all-round tax investigation on 84 people, including celebrities, athletes, webtoon writers, YouTubers, and platform operators. It is known that actors Lee Byung-hun and Kwon Sang-woo also paid hundreds of millions of won in fines.
