Kang Ji Hwan Will Create His Own Agency.

The actor who have been in legal battles with his two previous agency, have decided to open his own agency.

Kang Ji Hwan held a press conference on January 17th, and opened up about his recent conflict with his former agency.

He said, “It was overwhelming when so many articles keep appearing. I had to be careful of my words, because the public could have a bad reaction.”

He added, “I was in the middle of talks for my new drama, and I didn't want to give the drama and the staff a bad name. I have decided to not sign with any other agency, but I will establish my own, and properly concentrate in my work.”

In October 2012, his former agency S-Plus Entertainment, filled a claim against the actor for not answering their calls and sent their case to the Korea Entertainment Management Association. A few days later Kang Ji Hwan's lawyer explained that the actor wanted to solve this in an amicably way.

Meanwhile, Kang Ji Hwan and Hwang Jung Eum will be the lead roles in the next SBS drama “Money Incarnation.”
