The Narcotics Crime Investigation Division of the Incheon Metropolitan Police Agency announced on the 27th that they confirmed Lee and Kwon are currently staying in the country and have imposed a travel ban through the Ministry of Justice. The police plan to conduct drug tests on them soon to verify the use, types, and frequency of drugs.


Additionally, the police seized the mobile phone of A (29, female), the manager of a nightlife establishment located in Gangnam-gu, Seoul, who was previously arrested, and requested digital forensic analysis.


The police obtained intelligence that drugs were being distributed at the nightlife establishment where A was active, and during the verification process, they detected the involvement of Lee and Kwon. Lee and Kwon were booked on charges related to marijuana and psychotropic substances under the Narcotics Control Act, while A was arrested on psychotropic substance charges.



Furthermore, the police have booked a doctor suspected of supplying drugs to Lee and Kwon, as well as nightlife establishment employees who used drugs, and are conducting pre-booking investigations on five individuals including a third-generation chaebol family member, a composer, and an aspiring singer.
