G-Dragon was prosecuted, many Korean artists were also named

On October 26, Naver reported that a series of Korean artists were being investigated by the police for drug use. The incident began after actor Lee Sun Kyun and singer G-Dragon were caught up in a scandal. In addition, many artists such as the group BTS and singer Psy were also named. This information shocked the public opinion in the land of kimchi.

In response to public curiosity, Psy's management company - P-Nation - had to issue a statement denying that the Gangnam Style singer violated the Korean Drug Use Control Law: "The public's suspicions that artist Psy was involved in a drug scandal are false. If the rumors continue to spread, we will take legal action to protect the artist."

South Korea's top boy band BTS was also named. According to some sources, the group's members were said to have frequented an adult entertainment facility that actor Lee Sun Kyun frequented. This facility was where Lee Sun Kyun was found using drugs. BTS quickly denied the rumors.

Female singer Park Sun Joo, Soyul (former member of Crayon Pop group) was also dragged into the scandal and had to speak up to clarify.

According to Newsen, Seoul police (South Korea) said that actor Lee Sun Kyun and singer G-Dragon were VIP guests at an adult entertainment venue. A doctor provided drugs to the two artists. Currently, 5 more people are being investigated by the police.

On October 20, the Korean entertainment industry was shocked when the management company confirmed that actor Lee Sun Kyun was being investigated for suspected drug use. Lee Sun Kyun was once famous for films such as Coffee Prince, Taste of Love, Parasite, My Uncle...

After the Lee Sun Kyun incident, the police conducted an investigation and discovered that male singer G-Dragon (real name Kwon Ji Young) was also involved in a drug ring at an adult entertainment facility in Gangnam, Seoul (South Korea).

On October 25, the police initiated proceedings against G-Dragon. The entertainment company - YG Entertainment - also responded to the information that the male singer was being investigated for drug use: "It is difficult to respond officially because he is not currently an artist under our company."

Accordingly, G-Dragon has no longer been in contact with his former management company. Previously, YG Entertainment confirmed that their exclusive contract with G-Dragon ended in May. In the past day, many videos and information related to G-Dragon were dug up and became the topic of discussion.

In some old videos, the leader of Big Bang has shown many unusual behaviors that have worried many people. According to The qoo, in recent months, G-Dragon has shown many unusual behaviors every time he appears in public. Once at the airport, he kept scratching his head and walking unsteadily.

In another interview, he repeatedly stuttered, appeared nervous, and had unclear expressions. In addition, a video recording of G-Dragon entering a hotel showed that the singer was not in a good mood.

G-Dragon has had problems with drugs. In 2011, the king of K-pop (Korean youth music) was discovered smoking marijuana at a nightclub. However, he was not investigated because the amount he used was small and there was no evidence to prove that G-Dragon used drugs regularly.

At that time, the male singer claimed that he was being set up. In 2014, G-Dragon continued to cause controversy when he posted a picture of the word Molly with a white powder suspected to be a banned substance scattered around.

G-Dragon is an artist who has a close relationship with Chanel, so the famous brand is also suspected of being negatively affected by the singer's personal scandal.

Recently, the famous fashion house made an announcement regarding G-Dragon's incident: "We are aware of G-Dragon's incident, but at the moment, the brand does not want to comment."

In addition, the Korean police are also considering a decision to ban singer G-Dragon and actress Lee Sun Kyun from leaving the country.

Currently, Korean fans continuously express their disappointment with Korean male idol singers and are concerned about the debauched off-stage lives of idol artists negatively affecting young audiences.

In 2017, singer TOP (a member of Big Bang) had to appear in court for illegal marijuana use. This scandal affected his image, career and the activities of Big Bang.

Meanwhile, Seungri - another member of Big Bang - was sentenced to one year and six months in prison for nine charges related to prostitution, embezzlement, gambling, and corruption...
