However, health insurance premiums are not the only debts Dok2 has failed to pay. According to the National Tax Service on the 14th, Dok2’s name has also been listed as one of the high amount and habitual defaulters of taxes.
High amount and habitual defaulters refer to those who have failed to pay more than 200 million won in taxes for a year after the date of default. Dok2 has defaulted on taxes exceeding 300 million won.
Dok2 has been in various controversies across the years, he was sued for non-payment of jewelry fees by an overseas jewelry company and was forced to pay approximately 40 million won in unpaid jewelry fees.
