On the 14th, Lee Jin-ho said, `I started playing on an illegal gambling site on the Internet by chance in 2020, and I got a debt that I couldn't afford. I'm so embarrassed. I'm sorry," he wrote in a lengthy post.
He "I'm paying off my money steadily every month, and I'm going to pay off all this debt on my own until I die."When I got a call to an unknown number, I thought it was a debt-related call, and I felt like I was being beaten every day by the fear of when this would be known to the world," he added.
"I thought I could at least get out of this anxiety after confessing everything and being punished, but I couldn't make a choice because I had to work to pay off my debt a little bit."
And then "I'm so ashamed, and I'm sorry. As a celebrity on the show, I truly regret the past when I forgot my duty and ruined it with a moment of misjudgment. I promise to repay the debt left to me no matter what. I would also like to bow my head and apologize to many of you who would have been disappointed by me, who caused a social stir and was in a hurry to hide it. The police investigation will also be faithfully conducted and I will pay for my fault. I am truly sorry," he repeatedly lowered his head.
In this regard, Lee Jin-ho's agency, SM C&C, said "We are organizing our position."
Meanwhile, Lee Jin-ho debuted through SBS 'Looking for Laughs' in 2005 and has been loved a lot through tvN 'Comedy Big League' and JTBC 'Knowing Bros'.
