INFINITE's Seongjong explains why he is grateful to leader Sungkyu

INFINITE has proven time and again that its members are more than just coworkers; they share close friendship and an undying bond.

INFINITE's Woohyun and Seongjong recently guested on the YouTube show BBQ X Billboard hosted by 2PM's Wooyoung. On the show, the members discussed many aspects of INFINITE. 

While discussing INFINITE's longevity and the establishment of INFINITE COMPANY, the topic of leader Sungkyu came up. Sungkyu, who invested his personal money to establish INFINITE COMPANY, not expecting any return, and who also doesn't take a separate salary for his role as CEO, has amazed the members with his dedication to INFINITE, and they are grateful to him. Here, Sungjong mentioned that he was especially grateful to the leader, as when he was in a lawsuit dispute with his former personal agency due to unpaid earnings, not only did the leader give him emotional support, but he also gave him a large sum in cash to cover his legal fees. 

Sungjong explained that the lawsuit was a huge burden, and with the legal fees piling up, he was very stressed. Woohyun had always told him to ask for help if he needed it, but Sungjong had no intention of receiving money from the members, so he hadn't even expected it. But one day, Sunggyu called him to the practice room by himself and gave him a large sum of money in cash to use for the lawsuit.

Sungjong was very touched by this gesture and thought, "This is what a real leader looks like."

Fans were once again touched by the relationship between the members and expressed that this is one of the reasons INFINITE has managed to continue its 15-year journey.
