The Seoul Metropolitan Police Agency's Narcotics Crime Investigation Unit summoned Yoo on the morning of the 16th at 9 a.m. as a suspect under the Narcotics Control Act, questioning him about the types and frequency of drugs used, purchase routes, and whether there were accomplices. A friend of Yoo, who was identified as an accomplice, was also summoned and investigated.


Yoo underwent interrogation until 4:40 a.m. the next day, reviewed the interrogation records for nearly two hours, and then went home around 6:20 a.m. After completing the police investigation, Yoo told reporters, "I have said what I can. I apologize for causing concern."


The police believe Yoo used five types of narcotics, including marijuana, propofol, cocaine, ketamine, and zolpidem, and are verifying the specific circumstances and legality.



Based on the investigation, the police plan to decide on Yoo's legal status and further measures.
