Yoo Ah In was thrown money in the face by the audience while appearing in court
On September 21, actor Yoo Ah In appeared at the investigation agency to attend the questioning session. The trial of the youngest "film king" in the Korean entertainment industry received special attention from the media and audiences in the kimchi country.
While moving from the interrogation court to the waiting area, Yoo Ah In was hit in the face by an angry citizen who threw a wad of money and said, "Take it to prison and use it." Faced with the audience's cruel actions towards him, Yoo Ah In could only bow his head and continue walking.

According to Korean media, since 2020, Yoo Ah has used illegal substances 200 times, spending about 500 million won (about 9.1 billion VND) to buy propofol (a prescription drug, banned from indiscriminate use in Korea). The above amount does not include other drugs that the actor has used.
In addition, Yoo Ah In was also accused of illegally using about 1,000 sleeping pills prescribed under other people's names, using cocaine and marijuana with 4 acquaintances in the US.
The South Korean actor has been under investigation since 2022. In early 2023, he was detained at a South Korean airport upon his return from the US for testing. Test results showed that the famous actor tested positive for eight banned substances used in South Korea.
From an A-list star, Yoo Ah In quickly lost his back on the Korean public. Within just one month of being investigated, Yoo Ah In lost the opportunity to participate in a major film project, and many brands canceled their collaboration contracts with him.

Since April, Ah In has not appeared in public, in the media or on social networks in Korea. Korean media commented that Yoo Ah In has lost his career in the Korean entertainment industry because of the drug scandal.
Since April, he has appeared in court twice. Both times, the actor expressed remorse, apologized to the public, and promised to cooperate with the investigation.
On September 18, South Korean prosecutors filed a request for an emergency arrest warrant for the Korean "movie king", but at the trial on September 21, the actor continued to be free.
Before the hearing at the Seoul court (South Korea), the Korean actor apologized to the public for the troubles. He also pledged to testify honestly in court but denied the accusation of destroying evidence.
"Once again, I am truly sorry for causing concern to my fans. I will honestly answer the court's questions today. I will tell the whole truth," he said.
Yoo Ah In (born 1986) entered the entertainment industry in 2003 and quickly became famous for his acting talent. He made impressive appearances in a series of famous Korean movies and TV series and won the title of "best actor" in Korea at a young age.
In 2018, the New York Times selected Yoo Ah In as one of the 12 actors of the year, praising his natural acting. Yoo Ah In's success has inspired many young colleagues and been highly appreciated by the older generations. However, a serious personal scandal has sunk his future and image in the eyes of the Korean public.

Artists with stains in Korea are not easily forgiven by the audience.
For Korean stars, career scandals can cost them their careers. Before Yoo Ah In, a number of Korean stars had to retire and disappear from showbiz completely due to personal scandals and heavy attacks from fans.
With his sweet and sympathetic beauty, Kim Hyun Joong had a successful career after playing the role of Yoon Ji Hoon in the TV series Boys Over Flowers . He also appeared in other films such as Mischievous Kiss, Dream High...
When his career was at its peak, in August 2014, Kim Hyun Joong was involved in a scandal involving assaulting his girlfriend and beating his ex-girlfriend to the point of miscarriage. His ex-girlfriend also provided evidence that she gave birth to the actor's child but was abandoned by him.

At that time, the singer and actor was boycotted by the public and had to quietly enlist in the army. The lawsuit between Kim Hyun Joong and his ex-lover also became a controversial topic.
Later, Kim Hyun Joong was cleared when his ex-girlfriend was convicted of defamation and had to pay 100 million won (about 2.1 billion VND) in compensation. However, the love scandal greatly affected Kim Hyun Joong's reputation, forcing him to start over. Currently, the male singer has returned to the entertainment industry but is not well received by the Korean public.
In 2021, actor Kim Min Gwi was accused by his girlfriend of two-timing, spending the night with many girls, being verbally abusive, and sneaking out during the Covid-19 quarantine period... The incident caused him to be completely boycotted, even though he was previously a notable name thanks to his role in the TV series Nevertheless .
Under pressure from public opinion, the actor admitted to his promiscuous behavior, but affirmed that he always followed the epidemic prevention regulations. After the incident, the film crew Nevertheless decided to cut the actor's scenes. On his personal page, Kim Min Gwi also had to post an apology to his colleagues and fans, but the audience did not forgive him.

Acting since the age of 6, actress Kim Sae Ron was called an "acting genius" by the Korean media. However, in May 2022, she caused a serious traffic accident while drunk and fled the scene. The unfortunate incident put an end to the young star's career.
Kim Sae Ron's career has been frozen since May 2022. The actress proactively withdrew from a number of projects, taking time to reflect on herself. Last June, Kim Sae Ron appeared in court and personally bowed her head, apologizing to her fans. In 2023, she was on the list of stars banned from several major Korean television stations.

Kang Ji Hwan is a veteran star of the Korean entertainment industry with many impressive roles in Four Brothers, The Legend of Hong Gil Dong, Coffee House, Fated Lies and Fireworks... In 2019, he was arrested by the police at his home on charges of raping and harassing two female employees.
In 2020, the Supreme Court of South Korea sentenced Kang Ji Hwan to three years in prison, suspended, and if he commits another crime, he will have to serve a sentence of two years and six months in prison. In addition, Kang Ji Hwan was required to perform 120 hours of community service and 40 hours of sexual violence treatment. The actor must limit his work with minors and people with disabilities for three years.
When the incident happened, Kang Ji Hwan was dropped from the main role of the movie Joseon Survival even though part of the movie had been filmed. The management company also announced the termination of the exclusive contract with the actor and he himself decided to retire.

In Korea, artists who break the law or are involved in personal scandals are not only banned by authorities and not allowed to appear in the media, but they also have to endure the cold shoulder of their fans. Without the support of the audience, the career of Korean artists is considered over.
