Song Ji-hyo directly pays hospital and taxi expenses for employees

Actress Song Ji-hyo helped employees of her agency who suffered from unpaid wages with her own money.

According to a media report on the 17th, Song Ji-hyo personally came forward to help struggling employees despite having an unsettled balance of 900 million won from her agency, Woojurox. He let the managers play his cards.

In addition, he directly paid hospital bills for employees who were behind on their salaries and even took on the role of caregiver. He also paid for employees' taxi fare and drove himself to work when the company was busy.

Song Ji-hyo said, "I can live without that money right now. But the employees have become credit delinquents, their cards have been blocked, and their cell phones have been cut off. The 2 million won lease fee for the Porsche that the CEO of Woojurox drives is a luxury, but the 200 won a month these friends deserve is “10,000 won is life,” he appealed.

Previously, Song Ji-hyo filed a lawsuit against Woojurox on the 2nd for non-payment of settlement money. Woojurox said it would deposit Song Ji-hyo's settlement salary on the 1st, but did not keep it, and failed to keep its promise on the 4th. It was promised that the settlement would be paid by the 10th, but it was reported that the deposit was not made even on the 10th.
