26.02.27 Reporter: Yoon Taekhwan | Feb 26, 2026 Cha Eunwoo’s tax issue raises a broader question: Is tax law ready for the one-person IP economy? The focus is on income structures, substance-over-form taxation, and the lack of clear standards for single-owner corporations. As seen in past cases like Tada and Upbit, industries often evolve faster than regulation. #CHAEUNWOO #차은우 @CHAEUNWOO_offcl

26.02.27 Reporter: Kim Jaegyeom | Feb 26, 2026 Recent tax reassessments of one-person corporations are fueling debate over how economic substance should be judged. Experts stress the need to balance fair taxation with legal predictability, as unclear standards may affect creators and professionals alike. #CHAEUNWOO #차은우 @CHAEUNWOO_offcl

📰 The Tax Administration Dilemma Sparked by Cha Eunwoo: Controversy Over ‘Lack of Standards’ Intensifies “Ambiguity in standards for massive tax assessments highlighted... Systemic overhaul of tax administration essential” The recent issue surrounding celebrity one-person agencies, triggered by the “Cha Eunwoo incident”, is expanding beyond simple allegations of individual tax evasion. It has evolved into a debate over the predictability and procedural justice of the current tax system. As the tax authorities issue successive notifications for massive additional assessments, fundamental questions are being raised: what constitutes permissible tax planning, and where does the line for denial of corporate status begin? According to the tax industry on the 27th, there is an ongoing analysis that corporate utilization structures, which have been maintained as a long-standing practice, are recently being subject to strict re-interpretation. While tax administration serves the purposes of securing tax revenue and maintaining equity, concerns are growing that taxpayer trust could be undermined if enormous additional assessments are repeatedly issued without clearly established prior standards[...]. Some suggest that this issue may not be confined to the entertainment industry. The same legal disputes could apply to the broader spectrum of high-income professional groups with one-person business structures, such as YouTubers, influencers, and licensed professionals. Consequently, attention is focused on whether the National Tax Service (NTS) will provide more specific determination criteria or interpretive guidelines in the future. #CHAEUNWOO #차은우 #이동민 #チャウヌ #车银优 #ชาอึนอู #車銀優

📰 U.S. Recognizes Single-Person Agency Service Contracts… South Korea Only Has ‘Broad Standards’ The Cha Eunwoo’s tax case is shaking the entertainment industry both inside and outside Korea. This is also why lawmakers held a policy forum at the National Assembly on the 27th to discuss the tax issues surrounding single-person agencies. A single-person agency usually consists of one celebrity, often established and managed by the celebrity or their family, handling both activities and revenue directly. Although #CHAEUNWOO is signed with the agency Fantagio, a corporation established by his mother signed a service contract with Fantagio, effectively functioning as a single-person agency. — Canada Codifies Corporate Expense Limits Professor Oh Moonsung of Hanyang Women’s University’s Department of Tax Accounting said, “The key issue is whether the single-person agency actually provided services. If a company was established purely to reduce taxes—a paper company in form only—there is a problem.” For celebrities, single-person agencies can indeed be advantageous compared to large agencies. Corporate tax rates apply, and expenses such as makeup or hiring managers can be treated as corporate costs. Health insurance premiums are also lower when paid as a workplace subscriber through a single-person agency. The entertainment industry claims that the tax authorities’ scrutiny of single-person agencies is an excessive investigation that does not reflect the realities of the K-Entertainment industry. A spokesperson for an agency, who requested anonymity, said, “Single-person agencies handle detailed tasks, such as tailored intellectual property (IP) development and long-term planning, that large agencies cannot manage across multiple artists.” The Act on the Development of the Popular Culture and Arts Industry recognizes the necessity of single-person agencies for K-Entertainment’s growth and allows corporate registration. Registered single-person agencies bear real management risks, such as directly paying substantial penalties if a celebrity violates film or drama contracts. — “The Growth Engine of K-Entertainment Must Not Be Stopped” The KMF issued a statement on the 12th, noting that repeated retroactive tax collection on single-person agencies is due to a lack of clear standards, not malice, and called for system improvements. Major foreign countries encourage the broad use of single-person agencies institutionally while establishing clear taxation standards, resulting in fewer post-audit disputes than in Korea. The U.S. recognizes the “loan-out corporation” model, in which a celebrity owns all or most shares of a single-person agency and enters into service contracts with it. Celebrities in this structure act as agency CEO, shareholder, and employee under a labor contract. The corporation then receives payments for the celebrity’s activities, handles expenses, and pays the celebrity income as salary or dividends. California, the home of Hollywood, passed legislation in 2024 clarifying the legal status of such contracts. In the U.K., IR35 regulations require that if an independent contractor working through a personal service company is effectively equivalent to an employee, the corporation bears income tax responsibilities. Canada codifies the scope of corporate expense deductions under the Personal Services Business rules and informs taxpayers of the criteria. In contrast, SK has no reasonable taxation system for single-person agencies beyond the general principle of taxation based on economic substance. Professor Hong Kiyong, emeritus of Incheon University’s Business Department, stated “From the moment the tax authorities accept a single-person agency registration, education on proper tax compliance should be strengthened. When the difference between tax evasion and tax saving is fully understood, social waste, such as controversies over alleged evasion, will also decrease” #차은우 #チャウヌ #车银优 #ชาอึนอู #車銀優
