When Lee Seung-gi announced the exclusive contract termination… Hook, official website closed

The official website was shut down a day after singer and actor Lee Seung-gi informed the agency that the exclusive contract had been terminated.

On the 2nd, when you access Lee Seung-gi’s official website, the phrase ‘web hosting expiration notice’ appears. The homepage was previously managed by Hook Entertainment, the agency. When Lee Seung-gi sent the exclusive contract termination notice to the agency on the 1st, it seems that the homepage operation has stopped.

Lee Seung-gi is in conflict with Hook Entertainment, who has been in a relationship for 18 years since his debut in 2004, over settlement issues. Lee Seung-gi recently appointed Law Firm Pacific and Law Firm Choiseon as legal representatives and sent a certificate of content to Hook asking to disclose the details of the music revenue settlement.

Regarding this, the CEO of Hook, Kwon Jin-young, made a statement on the 21st of last month and said, “If the legal responsibility of Hook or that individual is clearly confirmed in the future, we will not go back or avoid and take full responsibility. “I will be more careful not to give anything away.”

After that, CEO Kwon Jin-young’s transcript containing cursed comments about Lee Seung-gi was released, and even suspected car theft law was shocked.

Lee Seung-gi informed Hook Entertainment of the termination of the exclusive contract and clearly expressed his intention to end the long partnership.
