Lee Sun-hee said, `Over the past 40 years, I have been loved by many people and have lived as a public figure as a singer, and I have had to do everything thoroughly without neglecting anything smaller than anyone else, but I have reflected a lot on what I have missed under the pretext of not knowing well.

Earlier, the police investigated allegations of embezzlement worth billions of won by Kwon Jin-young, CEO of Hook Entertainment, an agency of Lee Sun-hee, and expanded the investigation to Lee Sun-hee's breach of trust. The police have been investigating Win Entertainment's corporate card, which Lee Sun-hee established in 2013, for private use, and Lee Sun-hee has since been sent to the prosecution on charges of breach of trust. At that time, Lee Sun-hee's side actively explained the related suspicions in the investigation in good faith, and the police confirmed that most of the allegations raised against Lee Sun-hee were different from the facts. It is difficult to tell you in detail as we are investigating, but we expect that the sent part will be fully clarified and misunderstood" reported his position.

Hello, I'm singer Lee Sunhee. Forty years ago, I met you for the first time today with a nervous heart on the stage called Gangbyeon Song Festival.

And, as a singer, I have always lived with gratitude with overflowing love for a long time.

Last year, I was under intense investigation by the investigative agency into allegations related to Hook Entertainment. The investigative agency saw no problems with other suspicions, but decided that some of my personal corporate credit card usage history from 2011 to 2022 was difficult to prove. Accordingly, a summary order of the fine was issued, and I humbly accepted it with reflection.

Over the past 40 years, I have been loved by many people and have lived as a public figure as a singer, and I have had to do everything thoroughly without neglecting anything smaller than anyone else, but I have reflected a lot on what I have missed under the pretext of not knowing well.

Above all, I'm sorry once again for disappointing many fans who have been comforting and hoping for my songs for 40 years. From now on, I will live my life without shame only as singer Lee Sun-hee.

I'm sorry to tell you the bad news while greeting you after a long time.
