Comedian Lee Jin-ho attended the Gangnam Police Station in Seoul as a suspect today (22nd), eight days after confessing to illegal gambling.

When asked by reporters if he had anything to say to the victim, Lee said, “I’m sorry,” and replied that he would be investigated sincerely.

The police are investigating the timing, specific method, and overall size of the illegal gambling against Lee.

Earlier on the 14th, Lee posted an apology on his SNS, saying that he started illegal gambling on the Internet in 2020 and owed a large amount of money.

In his apology, Lee said, “I bow down and apologize for causing a social stir and hiding it,” and said, “I will sincerely be investigated by the police and pay off my debt.”

Lee reportedly borrowed 100 million won from BTS Jimin in 2022 and did not pay it back, and also borrowed money from comedian Lee Soo-geun and singer Ha Sung-woon.
