Entertainment group June 18, 2024, 5:58 pm Sung Yimin was reported by artist Ah Ben for tax evasion by the 'Artistic Light' church to which he belongs, but no wrongdoing was found. Davis was taken to court by his ex-wife for failing to pay alimony on time, resulting in his properties being frozen. During the process, it was discovered that he had not reported his income from his team the previous year, leading to suspicions of tax evasion. Celebrities' high incomes often attract the attention of the tax authorities. In 2018, Ah Xiang was audited by the tax bureau for not fully paying his taxes on the income of 20 million, requiring him to pay an additional 2 million. During his solo career, Ah Xiang's income exceeded 20 million, leading to a penalty of 2 million. Sung Yimin was accused by artist Ah Ben of owing taxes despite not receiving a salary from the 'Artistic Light' church. After investigation, the tax bureau closed the case due to 'lack of evidence of tax evasion.' Former church member Wang Ruiling accused the church of not reporting her donations for taxes, but the church claimed that they had meticulously documented everything. In 2011, Lin Chi-ling was asked by the tax bureau to pay tens of millions in back taxes. Despite Lin Chi-ling's personal explanation, her appeal was rejected, and she was required to pay 'tens of millions' in back taxes and penalties. The dispute lay in whether Lin Chi-ling's income was considered business income as she claimed or salary income as determined by the tax bureau, leading to significant differences in tax rates. Lin Chi-ling had been asked years ago to pay back taxes and fines amounting to tens of millions.
