Lee Seung Gi and fellow "Strong Heart League" hosts were surprised to hear that the award winning actor is a possible target of pseudo-religious groups.
These types of organizations are often linked to a group of people who do fake religious activities or form a cult.
In an episode of SBS's entertainment program, a former member of a pseudo-religious group bravely spoke about its wickedness.
As mentioned by a media outlet, Kim Kang Rim, who appeared as a guest on "Strong Heart League," is currently active as a counselor for victims of these types of fake religious groups.
He exposed that there are about "two million followers of pseudo-religious members" this 2023.
The former member said that these pseudo-religious groups "are not real religions" and were created to "scam" and "deceive people."
Interestingly, Kim Kang Rim revealed why he went to expose the dark side of these groups.
"Many people are not aware of the seriousness of this situation, so I decided to come out on this show to talk about it," he said, as obtained by a media outlet.
However, when asked who among the hosts might be a possible victim, Kim Kang Rim mentioned Lee Seung Gi and Lee Hyo Jung's names.
Why Might Lee Seung Gi Be an Easy Target of Pseudo-Religious Groups?
At the height of his feud with then-agency HOOK Entertainment, the "Vagabond" star donated 300 million won, or around $244,000, to a tech university called KAIST.
In addition, he also gave 550 million won to the Korean Red Cross as part of the organization's activities.
According to a media outlet, the donations came after Lee Seung Gi received 5.4 billion won from his former agency as part of the profits that the company failed to compensate.
