Yang Chi-seung is closing his gym after facing difficulties, including gym deposit fraud.

On the 15th, Yang Chi-seung announced the closure of his gym through his personal SNS.

He noted, "Hello, this is Head Trainer Yang Chi-seung of Body Space. We will close on July 25. We are processing refunds for members, but if you have changed your phone number or have not received a message, please call Body Space to proceed with the refund."

He added, "Please make sure to receive refunds by July 24, and be sure to collect your personal belongings as it will be difficult to process refunds and store them after the dismantling. Thank you to everyone who has supported us during this time."

In relation to this, Yang Chi-seung also released a video. The short video showed Yang Chi-seung posting a notice regarding the closure on a water cooler inside Body Space.

His acquaintances expressed their sadness. Actress Choi Kang-hee, known to be receiving his training, also said, "T T Oh.. Oh.. Director...ㅜㅜ" expressing her regret. In addition, internet users have flooded in with encouragement, saying, "Where will he move to?," "Please start somewhere else," and "I support your new start."

Prior to this, Yang Chi-seung gained fame as a trainer for celebrities including Kim Woo-bin, Sung-hoon, and Han Hyo-joo. He had previously moved his health club to a location in Gangnam, Seoul, introduced by an acquaintance, but after three years of operation, he received an eviction order not from the landlord with whom he signed the lease, but from the Gangnam District Office.

It turned out that the building was established under a 20-year lease agreement with the Gangnam District Office, which the landlord had hidden while signing a lease agreement with tenants, including Yang Chi-seung, causing public outrage.

Later, Yang Chi-seung took out a housing mortgage to secure 400 million won for the gym's deposit. He garnered even more support for his actions, such as donating 10 million won for wildfire recovery efforts despite the difficult situation.

Despite such good deeds, Yang Chi-seung ultimately had to close his gym again. Consequently, messages of consolation and support have poured in for him.
