in Singapore on Apr 13, 2024. (Photo: CNA\/Joyee Koo)<\/p>\n<div class=\"content-wrapper\">\n<div class=\"text\">\n<div class=\"text-long\">\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Actor and Astro member Cha Eun-woo has been in the line of fire from brands and the public amid investigations by South Korea\u2019s National Tax Service (NTS) for\u00a0tax evasion amounting to 20 billion won\u00a0(US$13.6 million). This is reportedly one of the largest tax assessments conducted for a Korean celebrity.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\" data-once=\"outstream1\">On Thursday (Jan 22), Korean media reported that skincare brand Abib has switched promotional videos featuring Cha to private on YouTube. The videos are currently unplayable, displaying messages such as \u201cThis video cannot be played\u201d or \u201cThis is a private video\u201d.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"content-wrapper\">\n<div class=\"social-media\">\n<div>\n<article data-once=\"article_read\">\n<div><iframe id=\"instagram-embed-0\" class=\"instagram-media instagram-media-rendered\" src=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/p\/DTwws0AjWTe\/embed\/captioned\/?cr=1&amp;v=14&amp;wp=822&amp;rd=https%3A%2F%2Fcnalifestyle.channelnewsasia.com&amp;rp=%2Fentertainment%2Fcha-eun-woo-advertisements-dropped-brands-576881#%7B%22ci%22%3A0%2C%22os%22%3A1691%7D\" height=\"1118\" frameborder=\"0\" scrolling=\"no\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\" data-instgrm-payload-id=\"instagram-media-payload-0\" data-gtm-yt-inspected-39551834_238=\"true\" data-gtm-yt-inspected-14=\"true\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\" data-origwidth=\"\" data-origheight=\"1118\"><\/iframe><\/div>\n<\/article>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"content-wrapper\">\n<div class=\"text\">\n<div class=\"text-long\">\n<p dir=\"ltr\">The same has been done for Abib\u2019s Korean Instagram page, while his image continues to be displayed on the global page for now. Posts announcing Cha as the brand\u2019s ambassador on X (formerly Twitter) were also deleted. His profile photographs still remain on the brand\u2019s official website.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Local media have also reported that advertisements for Shinhan Bank featuring Cha have been made private on the bank\u2019s YouTube and social media channels as of Friday morning (Jan 23). Cha became a model for the bank\u2019s financial services in early 2025.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Public backlash continues to grow in the midst of these allegations.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">It was reported that Cha negotiated with the NTS to delay issuing the official audit results notice until his military enlistment process was completed. Cha enlisted for mandatory military service on Jul 28, 2025 and is scheduled to be discharged in January 2027.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"content-wrapper\">\n<div

away\u201d to the military so that \u201cby the time he returns from the military, everyone would\u2019ve forgotten about this\u201d.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">The backlash also extends to Cha\u2019s management agency, Fantagio.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">In their statement refuting claims about the actor\u2019s one-person agency being a \u201cpaper company\u201d that doesn\u2019t offer actual services, his legal representatives stated Cha\u2019s mother \u201cfelt the need to protect her son\u2019s entertainment activities and therefore established a company to directly operate a management business\u201d.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">This led fans to think that allegations against Cha are a direct result of Fantagio\u2019s incompetent management and failure to protect the image of its artist.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"content-wrapper\">\n<section class=\"block block- block--view-mode-default clearfix\">\n<figure class=\"figure block block-
