On July 25, 2019, was reported that a building in Gangnam, that Daesung purchased in 2017 before his military enlistment, have been operating illegal entertainment business. The Next day, Daesung released an apology statement and claimed that he was not aware of it because he started his military service right after purchasing the building and that would take legal action against tenants who committed illegal acts, such as the landlord of the building. As of January, all possible charges against him were dropped due to a lack of evidence and legitimate knowledge in the case.
