Movie star named A is investigated by the police for habitual use of propofol.
According to TV Chosun’s ‘News 9’ exclusive report on Feb 8th, the Seoul Metropolitan Police Agency called and investigated A on charges of violating the Narcotics Control Act on Feb 6th. This is because A has been routinely administered propofol while traveling to multiple hospitals. The Ministry of Food and Drug Safety, which monitors the distribution of psychotropic drugs, identified A’s excessive frequency of propofol prescription and requested the police to investigate.
A’s agency admitted to TV Chosun’s ‘News 9’ that he has been investigated by the police for related charges and explained, “However, we know that propofol is not administered except for necessary cases such as regular health checkups and procedures. To be honest, we do not know the details, so we need to sort it out first.”
The police asked the National Institute of Scientific Investigation for analysis of A’s hair and others, and also issued a ban on leaving the country for A.
Notably, A is reportedly a male actor in his 30s who is called a box office guarantee in the film industry for his strong charm and acting skills.
After rumors spread that top actor A is Yoo Ah In, his agency, UAA released a statement confirming that Yoo Ah In is being questioned by the police for propofol use. He is actively cooperating with the investigation.
