1. [+3,336, -20] Lee Seung Gi is so amazing. This proves that this was never about the money for him. It was about exposing his CEO for her evil abuse of power. I support you, and I hope that you win.

2. [+1,160, -5] He donated that huge sum all at once... I've seen celebrities make small donations here and there as they move profit around from their many buildings but this is amazing

3. [+630, -5] I can't believe such a kind person was gaslighted this entire time... ㅠㅠ I wish you more success! Let's win this lawsuit, fighting!!

4. [+463, -13] Wow, he donated the whole thing? He's on a completely different playing field.

5. [+409, -0] Estimations for what he was owed was predicted to be in the 10 billion won range and Hook is really trying to get away with only giving him half and acting like it's all over. How shameless. Take this until the end because I'll be supporting you all the way. Fighting.

6. [+286, -1] What a good man. Fight until the end and show people what happens when you act so inhumanely. I support you.

7. [+261, -0] This really proves that this lawsuit was never about the money but his attempt at escaping from her and showing the world who she truly is. I know it must've been so hard and scary to start this fight at all but I congratulate you now on winning the support of the public and your own freedom!

8. [+250, -2] He's donating the whole thing? That's truly the best form of revenge he can take... and no matter how rich someone is, it's never an easy feat to donate such a large amount all at once like that

9. [+171, -2] I was so surprised when I first heard this news. It reassured me that the kind image I had of him was not wrong. It's actually so touching.

10. [+169, -0] This Hook CEO is messing with the wrong guy. She thought she had a kind soul hook, line, and sinker to enslave for years... but now it's time to pay the price. If she had 5 billion won all at once to pay up like this, why was she playing him this whole time instead of giving it to him straight? People like her deserve to be punished.

1. [+5,162, -9] Wow~ Lee Seung Gi's character and strength are both amazing~

2. [+1,525, -18] Lee Seung Gi is truly the best. This amount of monery is something he sacrificed his youth to make and so I know it couldn't have been an easy decision to donate it all like this. I'm so touched.

3. [+1,293, -22] Hook truly has all of the qualities of an evil company. Take this lawsuit until the end and shake them out down to their soul~~~

4. [+952, -9] This may be Lee Seung Gi but I'm sure a sum like this is a large amount even for him but we now all know what his true intention behind all of this is and I only wish him more success

5. [+897, -21] Wow... I'm not an Lee Seung Gi fan but.. he's amazing! I should be a fan from now on. Fighting!

1. [+2,456, -15] Seung Gi-ya, we will support you until the end. Do not worry. This sounds like a ploy for her to dump a sum of money on you and then file for an absence of debt lawsuit and it's clear that she has no feelings of apology towards you at all. It's appropriate for you to take her to the end in court. There are a lot of fans supporting you from behind, remember that. Your post is genuine enough to bring tears to my eyes, and I applaud you on your bravery.

2. [+1,409, -8] When I read that he would be donating all 5 billion won of it to charity, I realized that the kind image I had of him this whole time has not been wrong. The thought of it is so touching.

3. [+968, -9] Only 5 billion won? Doesn't she owe him 20-30 billion won in total? Seems like she's trying to get away with the absolute minimum that's on record. A proper investigation should be brought out for the numbers to be finalized. I bet a lot of the numbers have been hidden under separate accounts. Lee Seung Gi fighting.

4. [+238, -6] Lee Seung Gi, you're amazing!!! I'll support you until the end!!!

5. [+212, -6] Amazing and touching ^^

1. [+832] Doesn't the debt start at a minimum of 10 billion won? Lee Seung Gi has hit daebak since debut, he should've made enough to be paid since then. I saw news that New Jeans started getting paid soon after debut... and Lee Seung Gi's debut was way bigger of a hit than them back then. His popularity was everywhere from album sales to varieties, broadcast, acting, CFs..

2. [+316] She's really trying to get out of this without any proper investigations... while eating potato beef stew in Louis Vuitton and all

3. [+312] Wasn't what she owed closer to 10 billion won? And probably more than that if you include interest?

4. [+228] Wasn't the amount over 10 billion won?

5. [+219] She only paid back 5.4 billion won?

6. [+472] 5.4 billion won is not enough to get you off the hook ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ I hope Hook goes bankrupt into the ground..

7. [+207] 5.4 billion won is not the correct sum

8. [+155] Calculate what you owe properly ㅡㅡ Lee Seung Gi would've made tens of billions more in his career if he had been under any other agency

9. [+75] She's only doing this now because she's realized that she won't make it out of this industry otherwise

10. [+25] 18 years of unpaid work only amounts to 5.4 billion won? Looks like the calculations were done in her absolute favor~ And now that she's tossed him this money, is she going to enter her mission to kill him off like she said..!!??
