Wasn’t it recognized that the damage was caused by Kim Se-ui spreading false information? Shouldn’t HoverLab and the bereaved family be the ones paying? Are Kim Soo-hyun and the others paying first, then suing the people who spread the false information?
I don’t think it’s a penalty; returning the endorsement fee for the remaining contract period seems fair... In the middle of that whole mess, how could an advertiser keep using his face?... Lee Hyori also got sued by advertisers back when she was scammed with plagiarized songs (the composer went to prison...), and she returned the money for the remaining period when the ads couldn’t run.
Honestly, they won’t be able to run his ads going forward either, so he should return the endorsement fee for the remaining contract period. Wow, his fee must’ve been seriously expensive.
