Yoo Ah In's drug-related scandal has affected not just the actor but also the people and companies whom he worked with on his upcoming projects.

As the investigation with the actor continues, various media outlets shared thoughts about the possible effect of the controversy on the K-dramas and movies, featuring the award-winning top star.

Known for his amazing portrayal and skill of playing various characters, Yoo Ah In gained respect not just from viewers but also producers, hence why the actor has a long list of forthcoming on-screen projects this 2023.

Unfortunately, authorities run a probe after the "Seoul Vibe" star is accused of habitually using propofol, a sedative, and anesthetic, often use in a hospital setting that could make a patient relax or sleep before and during surgery or other medical procedures.

However, as the probe requires Yoo Ah In to undergo various examines, his urine and hair strand tests showed surprising results.

The actor tested positive for four types of substances, from propofol, and hemp, to cocaine and ketamine.

With this, the controversy brought a major blow to Yoo Ah In's career, leaving him with brands dropping his endorsements and changes in his on-screen projects.

The award-winning star previously confirmed his comeback as The New Truth leader in "Hellbound 2" but was replaced by the equally talented Kim Sung Cheol after Yoo Ah In dropped out from the series due to the investigation.

On the other hand, his upcoming K-drama "Goodbye Earth" have successfully wrapped up the series as well as "High Five" and "The Match" which will have changes on their scheduled premiere.
