On May 9, Allkpop reported that the shocking drug scandal of famous actor and young "film king" Yoo Ah-in continues. Accordingly, the Seoul Police Department - Korea held a press conference on May 8, announcing that the investigation into the actor is still ongoing.
"The investigation into the accomplice and additional charges in the drug scandal is in its final stages. The suspect (Yoo Ah-in) is expected to be summoned again soon and further investigated," the police said. The summoning schedule is currently being coordinated and will be announced to the public soon.
Police said they will soon summon Yoo Ah-in again and investigate further.
Yoo Ah-in tested positive for banned substances such as hemp, propofol, cocaine and ketamine. Propofol is a substance that slows down the activity of the brain and nervous system, and if abused, can lead to addiction. Korea prohibits the indiscriminate use of this substance without a doctor's prescription. Ketamine is a synthetic drug, commonly known as "Ke". Meanwhile, the use of hemp resin will lead to addiction like opium and cocaine addiction.
During the interrogation, the police discovered that this "film king" had injected propofol 73 times in one year. Some of Yoo Ah-in's accomplices related to the scandal are being investigated for illegal drug use. On May 3, the police are said to have arrested 4 people who are friends and acquaintances of Yoo Ah-in, including a YouTuber, a screenwriter...
When the drug scandal broke out, Yoo Ah-in's rising career came to a halt, and all of his films were postponed. The "Emperor of Films" publicly apologized to the public and his fans.
