Park Yoochun’s bold steps amidst controversy

AKP STAFF

Park Yoochun, Silent on Tax Arrears, Now  Hosting a Dinner Show in Japan – The Troubled Star Marks 20th Anniversary with an Event in Japan.

Park Yoochun is preparing to meet fans in Japan, embarking on a fan meeting combined with a dinner show. 

Celebrating his 20th anniversary since debut, Park Yoochun will hold a fan meeting called ‘Re.birth’ on February 9th and 10th, 2024, at a restaurant in Tokyo, Japan. On February 11th, he will host a dinner show titled ‘Rhythm -with one heart-.’ Park Yoochun’s team announced, “The event in Japan is decided to commemorate the 20th anniversary of Park Yoochun’s debut.”

They added, “We will cherish the joy of reuniting with the fans in Japan and promise to present a stage that can only be seen at this moment, symbolizing the unity of Yoochun’s heart with that of the fans.”

The fan meeting, which will take place over four sessions, is priced at approximately 210,000 won (approx.155 US dollars), and the two-session dinner show is about 460,000 won (over 355 US dollars).

After being sentenced to 10 months in prison with a two-year suspended sentence for drug abuse allegations in 2019, he retired from the entertainment industry but continues to remain in the public eye due to various issues. Recently, he was embroiled in controversies involving a romantic relationship and breakup with a wealthy Thai woman and tax problems. According to the National Tax Service’s list of high-income and habitual tax defaulters released on the 14th, Park Yoochun has not paid five taxes, including capital gains tax since 2016, totaling over 3 hundred thousand US dollars (400 million and 900 thousand won) in arrears.

Especially, Park Yoochun’s brazen move to proceed with the fan meeting and dinner show without addressing the tax evasion controversy has led to increased criticism.

I might be wrong, but I think… he needs money.

Yoochun remains silent about all the gossip, and this angers the Hanguks even more. They themselves dragged him into gossip about romantic relationships, they themselves came up with a story about his breakup with this girl, and they write that it was Yoochun who was involved in the scandals. Who is stirring up these scandals? Korean media constantly publishes hot news about Yoochun. I wonder who pays for all this?

The man left Korea a long time ago, lives and works in another country, meets with his fans and has nothing to do with the country that rejected him. But Korean users and the media still won’t calm down. Maybe they will raise money for Yoochun to pay off his tax debt? If they are so concerned about this issue. They don't let him work, and then they wonder how he could not pay taxes? Indeed, it is very surprising
한국인, you really like to count other people's money instead of earning money yourself.
