Rain to be reinvestigated for embezzling J Tune Creative funds

Singer Rain (Bi), who was previously found not guilty for embezzling company, J Tune Creative‘s (a clothing company) funds, has been called in for a re-investigation.
Previously, Rain was sued on charges of embezzling company money as modeling compensation for a company that he’s a major stockholder in.  He was later cleared of wrongdoing.  On September 4th, however, the Seoul Central Prosecutors’ Office announced that they have ordered a re-investigation of the case.
The Seoul Central Prosecutors’ Office found that J Tune Creative, the company he’s the largest shareholder in, had deposited $2.255 million USD, nearly 50% of their company funds, to Rain in one instance when Rain never acted as a model for the company.  In addition, the pay was said to have been too excessive in comparison to other models.
The court also said that there needed to be further investigations into the $30,000 USD used for a personal transportation lease and the $47,000 USD used for office rental.
