According to Lee Sang - min, he signed an advertising model contract several years ago when asked to give a model of a construction company brand from a close acquaintance. Since then, he claims that he has faithfully fulfilled advertising contracts, including advertising model activities and performing arts programs produced by advertisers.

Lee said, "However, the plaintiffs do not pay the broadcasting fees and labor costs of all cast members including me, and there are many victims." The advertiser who sued me was sentenced to 7 years and 6 months for embezzlement three years ago, I think that the complainants are intent on putting innocent me in for financial reasons. "

"The plaintiffs are willing to sue me for a criminal complaint and return the legally acquired advertising fee, but I have no reason to return the advertising model fee by fulfilling the contract."

He said, "I am sincere that I have begun to ask the people of the public because of the disgusting things surrounding me as an accredited person, regardless of the reason." "I am embarrassed with the blatant complaint, but I will go through with wisdom."
