In the midst of the controversy between Block B and their agency, Stardom Entertainment, it has been reported that the agency's former CEO, Mr. Lee, has been found dead in his home's basement on the 20th after what appears to be suicide.
Mr. Lee has been under much attention after Block B filed their lawsuit against the agency citing that they have not been paid for a year and that Lee had even received money from the members' parents. The agency responded through their official statement that Lee indeed received money from the parents and had run off with it afterwards, and stated that they were planning to take legal action against him as well.
An individual who knew him said, "He's been having a hard time due to issues related to the lawsuit... He hadn't been seen recently."
A wake has been set up at a hospital in Seoul, and his funeral will take place on the 22nd.
