Originally, they were told to pay him 20 million KRW (approximately 17,600 USD) for breaking the contract, but in the appeal, the 80 million KRW was added for damages (approximately 70,500 USD) and the final sentence was to pay Lee Min Ho 100 million KRW (approximately 88,000 USD). As with the first trial, the company was ordered to stop producing and selling products with Lee Min Ho's face.
