Singer G-Dragon (35, real name Kwon Ji-yong), who is suspected of drug use, came out and denied the allegations.
On the 27th, G-Dragon issued an official statement through his lawyer and claimed, “First of all, I have never taken drugs.”
He added, “It is also unrelated to the news reports about ‘violation of the Narcotics Control Act’ that were recently released to the media.”
G-Dragon said, “However, I know that many people are concerned, so I will actively cooperate with the investigative agency’s investigation and work more diligently.”
Previously, on the 25th, the Incheon Police Agency’s drug crime investigation unit announced that it had booked G-Dragon and was investigating him on charges of violating the law on drug management.
Meanwhile, G-Dragon was accused of smoking marijuana in Japan in 2011메이저사이트. At the time, a hair test conducted by the prosecution came back positive, and G-Dragon stated, “I once smoked a cigarette given to me by a stranger at a club in Japan.”
He also admitted, “I suspected it was marijuana because it smelled different from regular cigarettes, but it’s true that I smoked a little bit.”
Accordingly, the prosecution decided to suspend the indictment, considering that G-Dragon was a first-time offender and did not smoke much, so the amount detected did not meet the standards for handling drug offenders.
