[Asia Economy Reporter Choi Eun-young] Debt allegations have been raised against Captain Lee Geun, a former Navy Special Warfare Unit (UDT) member who gained fame by appearing in the YouTube channel 'Physical Gallery's 'Fake Men' content.

On the 2nd, netizen A posted on Instagram, "There is someone who borrowed 2 million won in 2014 and has not repaid it," claiming, "At the time, I desperately asked and even sold stocks before their maturity date at a loss to raise cash and lend the money."

He continued, "However, even after the promised repayment date passed, excuses were made and the delay continued. (He) bought a 10 million won skydiving parachute but did not repay my money, and later stopped answering calls, only leaving text messages saying he would contact me but never did."

Mr. A also revealed a court ruling in a civil lawsuit he won.

He added, "After enduring for a long time, I filed a civil lawsuit in 2016 and won, but he has ignored the judgment and has not repaid the money to this day," and claimed that he said, "'I tried to repay, but seeing the lawsuit without waiting, I decided not to respond or repay the money.'"

Mr. A said, "Recently, I heard he said, 'I was rejected in the long-term service review because my direct superior gave me a bad work evaluation, and because of that, I am threatening revenge with bad intentions. Try whatever you want, I won't stay still and will respond legally,'" and expressed frustration, saying, "I never thought about or applied for long-term service, but because he doesn't want to repay the money, he is trying to make me out to be a liar with personality issues."

He complained of mental distress, saying, "These days, the person who became a star keeps appearing in recommended YouTube videos, and even when I briefly turn on the TV, he keeps showing up, and many acquaintances keep speaking well of him to me."

Although Mr. A did not directly mention Captain Lee Geun's real name, he implied it through the hashtag '#PersonalityProblem.' Captain Lee gained popularity for conducting special forces training in 'Fake Men' with a unique charisma. Phrases like "Do you have a personality problem?" and "I'll kill you halfway" became catchphrases.
