[Alpha Biz= Joonhyun Lee] Several South Korean media outlets reported on September 25 that CJ Group Chairman Lee Jay-hyun may have hosted private gatherings involving women from entertainment venues, influencers, and streamers.



According to the reports, recruitment for these gatherings was allegedly coordinated by intermediaries through social media messages, with some attendees claiming they received dress code instructions. 

 

 

Anonymous sources cited by the media also claimed that participants were given cash envelopes, while CJ Group stated it could not confirm the reports, describing the matter as a private issue unrelated to the company.



Lee Jay-hyun is the grandson of Samsung founder Lee Byung-chul and currently serves as chairman of CJ Group, where he is also the largest shareholder.
