Yoo Ah In Summoned By Authorities Amid Drug-Related Issues

After the "Seoul Vibe" star underwent investigation, along with a series of tests, the Drug Crime Investigation Unit of the Seoul Metropolitan Police Agency (MFDS) examined the top star's actual medical records and propofol prescription status from the Ministry of Food and Drug Safety.

According to a media outlet, on February 27, authorities are planning to obtain the actor's mobile phone and summon Yoo Ah In "as a suspect for investigation" following the release of the results of digital forensics.

As Yoo Ah In made headlines amid the ongoing investigation, his image is in a bad shape since drug issues are a very sensitive issue in South Korea. At the height of the controversy, his endorsements from various brands were taken down from different platforms.

In addition, his soon-to-be-released K-dramas and movies from Netflix might also be affected by the issue. To recall, Yoo Ah In is set to reprise his role in "Hellbound 2," and headline a new series "Goodbye Earth" with Ahn Eun Jin.
