Im Ju Hwan - no, not that one:
A blogger’s claim:
- One news article triggered a flood of similar articles claiming that a model-actor “I” from recent hit show Boys Over Flowers was being investigated. This led to everyone understandably assuming that Im Ju Hwan was the suspect. (Not only is he a model-turned-actor like Ju, he was formerly in the same tight-knit agency with Ye Hak Young. He is fluent in Japanese and visits Japan often for work and play.) However, Im Ju Hwan’s agency fired back with a defensive response: “That is not true. We’re not sure how such a report came about, but after checking, it has been confirmed that [the person in question] is a civilian of the same name. He has never even appeared in the line of police investigation. We will take legal action against false reports.” Im Ju Hwan himself directly refuted allegations just now (late afternoon of April 29, Seoul time) and said, “I am not the being investigated for drugs. It’s just a case of identical names.”
- A representative of Im’s agency also said, “Out of the people involved in the drug incident, [he] was colleagues with Ju Ji Hun in their modelling days. However, he said that he hasn’t even met with [Ju] in approximately a year and is feeling very victimized.”
KP’s note: The names of the others involved have not been confirmed on news articles yet. However, this list of names was posted by a particular blogger (who works in stocks) before any reports of Im Ju Hwan came out. The list also includes a Park, Kim, and Jeon - three last names that were included in reports. Accusing someone of drugs is pretty serious, so we want to caution that the full list has not been confirmed by the police. Most of the names are common enough that though there are celebrities with the same names, we cannot be sure whether it is the same person or not. No news articles have put up the full list of names.
- From August 27, 2007 to December 28, 2008, Yoon Seol Hee, Jeon Yoo Ryang, Ye Hak Young, Ju Young Hun (Ju Ji Hun’s birth name), Kim Jung Yeon, Lee Eun Joo, Lee Hye Jin, Lee Hyun Seon, __ Joo Hyun, Ko Ye Ji, Im Ju Hwan, Kim Jin, Park Ji Hye, Kim Ha Na, Park Tae Hong used drugs while in groups of two to five. During a number of get-togethers, ketamine was snorted through a straw and/or ecstasy tablets were swallowed with water.
- Ju Ji Hun took ecstasy and ketamine with Ye Hak Young and three others at the end of March 2008 and again with a few people in mid-April.
