Many of Lee Seung Gi’s fans were against the couple’s union.

Lee Seung Gi‘s father-in-law is under fire after being recorded telling his creditor that he would try to get money from the singer.

On May 23, MBC’s investigative news program, Silhwatamsadae, released a damning recording. In the recording, when asked to pay off his debts, Lim Yeong Gyu, the father of Lee Seung Gi’s wife, Lee Da In, can be heard telling the creditor that Lee Seung Gi might be the one to pay off his debts.

Lee Seung Gi might be the one to take care of this (debt). I’m more comfortable with that.

— Lim Yeong Gyu

The recording continues with Lim Yeong Gyu explicitly saying he was planning on taking money from Lee Seung Gi.

I heard he told (redacted actor). That’s why I need to take money from that bastard (Lee Seung Gi).

— Lim Yeong Gyu

The shocking news is what many of Lee Seung Gi’s fans feared for the star when he announced his marriage to Lee Da In. Lee Da In’s parents are infamous in Korea for being implicated in some of the worst financial fraud crimes in the country’s history, with Lee Da In’s step-father having previously served time in prison for fraud.

Stay tuned for updates.
