Singer and actor Cha Eun-woo, who paid about 13 billion won in additional taxes, has filed an appeal with the Tax Tribunal to contest the National Tax Service's tax imposition.
According to Fantagio, Cha submitted a tax appeal petition to the Tax Tribunal last month, arguing that the National Tax Service's imposition of approximately 13 billion won in income tax arrears is unjust.
Fantagio stated that Cha filed for tax arbitration following the procedures stipulated by the law to receive a legal judgment, and asked for understanding that it is difficult to share specific details as the proceedings are currently underway.
A tax appeal is a system that allows taxpayers to raise an objection to the Tax Tribunal when they believe tax-related dispositions are unlawful or unfair.
Such an appeal can be filed within 90 days from the date a taxpayer becomes aware of a tax notice or receives the tax bill.
Suspicion of tax evasion was raised against Cha in January when reports emerged that he had been notified by the National Tax Service to pay more than 20 billion won in income tax arrears.
In April, he stated that he respected the procedures and results of the National Tax Service and paid all related taxes to prevent any further confusion.
