Former NRG member Lee Seong-jin, who has taken time off due to issues like gambling and fraud, is reportedly doing well.
On the 29th, Kim Young-sam shared a photo of Lee Seong-jin with a caption noting, "Our NRG Seong-jin has been called out occasionally in similar issues, but now he is a devoted family man." In the image, Lee Seong-jin is seen smiling brightly next to Kim, wearing a cap. Kim further revealed that Seong-jin has been a model patient, keeping up with his dental appointments faithfully.
Lee Seong-jin married a makeup artist in February 2022 after a four-year relationship and recently shared the news of welcoming a son in August. Since his debut in 1997, he gained fame with hits like "What Should I Do," but faced legal troubles in 2009 for failing to repay a significant gambling debt. Following his appeal, he was sentenced to a year in prison with a two-year probation and fined in December 2011.
In 2010, he attracted attention for overseas gambling in Macau, and in 2014, he was caught driving under the influence. Lee Seong-jin's path reflects both challenges and personal achievements as he continues to navigate his post-celebrity life.
