Stardom Entertainment, it has been reported that the agency's former CEO, Mr. Lee, has been found dead in his home's basement on the 20th after what appears to be suicide.

A source close to the deceased told enews on May 21th, "[The former agency head] Mr. Lee committed suicide in the basement of his home on May 20. He was found dead by a friend, and the wake is currently underway."

The wake started at a hospital in Seoul since the evening of the day he was found dead. The coffin will be borne out on May 22th.

Mr. Lee gathered much attention as an important official in the charges Block B had brought against its agency.

On January 3th, the group had filed for the cancellation of its contract against Stardom Entertainment. Block B had asserted that Stardom had failed to pay it a year′s worth of profits, and that Mr. Lee had received 70 million won from the members′ parents and disappeared.

Stardom Entertainment, however, had countered that it had never failed to pay the members, and that there was a mastermind behind the members.

It seems Mr. Lee came to kill himself as he suffered while the case continued to go on.

A family member told enews, "We have nothing to say."
