Kang Sung Hoon and his fanbase Hoony World has been sued for fraud and embezzlement.

70 Sechskies fans submitted their lawsuit against Kang Sung Hoon and Hoony World to the Seoul Central Police District. The fans accuse Kang Sung Hoon and Hoony World of embezzling funds from the Sechskies 20th anniversary screening tickets, pretending that the support funds and ticket money were going to be donated but instead taking it for themselves.

The screening took place in Seoul's Chungdamdong on April 15th, 2017. Before that on March 6th, 2017, Hoony World had made a post explaining gathering support funds, and how the profits from the ticket sales would be donated. The post explained that all of the ticket profits would be donated under Sechskies' name.

The 70 fans accused Kang Sung Hoon and Hoony World of taking about 100 million KRW (88,400 USD) of ticket sales and support funds and used the money inappropriately and embezzled it. 


Kang Sung Hoon has responded that he will be counter-suing the claim. His firm announced, "Hello. This is Sechskies' Kang Sung Hoon's legal representative firm Seung Min's attorney Cho Dae Jin. Hoony World has been asserting that the truth about the funds from the 20th anniversary screen is different from what has been reported. We promise that we will be revealing the truth through future investigations. We ask you to refrain from creating rumors through guesswork, and we confirm that we will be taking action against false claims that arise. Kang Sung Hoon was not involved in this at all, and he was not directly involved with the event. Once the Hoony World fanclub manager's investigations are complete, we will let you know what happens."

im glad hes counter suing, best way to fight back is to not back down and act all apologetic especially if your not guilty , i hope he clears his name soon, and the people out to ruin him get a good dose of karma soon .
