''Knowing bro' Lee Jin-ho has erased all traces of illegal gambling' 'Put the desk away, no mention '



There was no sign or mention of Lee Jin-ho 'illegal gambling'.

The crew and cast of `Knowing Bros' completely erased Lee Jin-ho's traces.

On the 26th, JTBC entertainment show 「Knowing Brother」 (hereinafter 'Ah-hyung') featured Yeo Esther, a family medicine specialist, Kim Tae-hoon, a cognitive psychologist, and Lee Kwang-min, a psychiatrist, at his school on the occasion of the 「Psychological Counseling Special」.



From the beginning, the chatter of the members of 'Brother' was also greatly reduced. The desk where Lee Jin-ho was sitting was completely removed, but no one mentioned it. Yeo Esther, who appeared in a skit on this day, told those who had been in the classroom for about 10 years, "What are you doing. Are you still not graduating?," he asked, drawing laughter.

Kang Ho-dong was glad to remember Yeo Esther, who appeared as a good teacher 10 years ago.

Lee Jin-ho previously posted a lengthy post on his SNS on the 14th to reveal that he had engaged in illegal gambling. He volunteered to confess that "In 2020, by chance, I started the game on an Internet illegal gambling site, and I ended up with an unaffordable debt."

Lee Jin-ho said "I started playing games on illegal gambling sites on the Internet by chance in 2020, and I got a debt I couldn't afford. I was able to belatedly wake up to the stinging advice of my acquaintances and the fear that I might not be able to do this job again, but I had already received financial help from many people. "I am steadily paying back the money every month, and I intend to repay all this debt on my own until I die from now on."



Later, according to the 'SBS 8 o'clock News" on the same day, Lee Jin-ho borrowed more than 1 billion won from fellow celebrities such as BTS Jimin and Lee Soo-geun.

In addition, it is reported that the amount of money borrowed from a loan company is more than 1.3 billion won, and it is reported that it owes at least 2.3 billion won.

Meanwhile, Lee Jin-ho attended the police eight days after confessing to the illegal confession. Lee Jin-ho attended the Gangnam Police Station on the 22nd and was investigated.

Lee Jin-ho, who appeared in front of the reporters, briefly said "I'm sorry" when asked by the reporters why he fell into illegal gambling.

He then said "I'll be investigated sincerely" when asked by reporters if he has anything to say to his fellow entertainers, but remained silent when asked "What do you think of the alleged fraud?"
