Hong Kong film star Louis Koo Tin-lok has been sued by a business partner who claims he failed to repay a loan of HK$8.3 million (US$1.1 million) arising from a fashion joint venture more than a decade ago. According to a High Court writ made public on June 12, 2024, Koo and his business partner, Dong Choi-chi, agreed in July 2013 to acquire 49 per cent of Eyeteam Limited, a company involved in the distribution of goods from overseas apparel brands, including Evisu and A Bathing Ape. Dong said Koo proposed the joint venture, but asked for a loan since he did not have enough cash to pay his share.
