“I want to take advantage of these moments to live a healthy life”…What Yoo Ah In said after police investigation
Actor Yoo Ah In (real name Uhm Hong Sik) returned home after a 12-hour police investigation.
Actor Yoo Ah In appeared at the Seoul Metropolitan Police Agency’s Drug Crime Investigation Unit in Dohwa-dong, Mapo-gu, Seoul on March 27th. He left the police station after completing the investigation as a suspect.
According to the police, Yoo Ah In is accused of using drugs such as marijuana, propofol, cocaine and ketamine (violation of the Narcotics Control Act).
He told reporters, “I deeply reflect on the fact that I disappointed many people who have loved me because of a shameful thing. I’m sorry.”
When asked what questions he received during the police investigation, Yoo said, “I received questions related to the allegations known through the media, and I expressed my position as far as I could.”
He continued, “I’m cautious about telling you the details because the investigation is not over yet, but personally, I think I fell into the wrong swamp amid the self-justification that my deviant acts do not harm anyone.”
Yoo added, “I’m sorry for the delay in expressing my position. It would be very uncomfortable to see me like this, but I want to take advantage of these moments to live healthier moments that I haven’t lived before.”
At the end, he apologized, “I’m really sorry for disappointing you.”
Yoo Ah In was investigated for more than 12 hours from the morning of the same day on charges of violating the Narcotics Control Act.
The police raided the hospitals where propofol was administered and Yoo’s two houses. They also called in Yoo’s manager and acquaintances as witnesses.
They plan to comprehensively review the result of today’s summons investigation, including the exact number and process of Yoo’s administration, to decide whether to apply for an arrest warrant for Yoo.
Meanwhile, Yoo is said to have formed a “luxurious defense team” in connection with allegations of drug use.
Lawyer Cha Sang Woo of Infinity Law Firm, whom he appointed, is a former prosecutor and used to work at Kim & Chang Law Firm, the largest law firm in Korea.
In addition, Park Sung Jin, the representative lawyer of Infinity Law Firm and a member in the defense team, is known as the top drug investigation expert in the prosecution after working as a prosecutor for 28 years.
