'Drug Allegations' Lee Seon-gyun and G-Dragon Travel Ban... Police Investigation Accelerates
Forensic Analysis of Mobile Phone of Female Manager at Membership Room Salon
The police have banned actors Lee Seon-gyun (48) and G-Dragon (35, real name Kwon Ji-yong) from leaving the country on suspicion of drug use.
The Narcotics Crime Investigation Division of the Incheon Metropolitan Police Agency confirmed that Lee and Kwon are currently staying in the country and announced on the 27th that they have imposed an exit ban through the Ministry of Justice.
The police plan to conduct drug tests on them soon to verify whether they used drugs, as well as the types and frequency of use.
Additionally, the police seized the mobile phone of A (29, female), the manager of the so-called "membership-only room salon" in Gangnam, Seoul, who was arrested in connection with this case, and requested digital forensic analysis on the same day. By analyzing A’s call records, they plan to confirm the charges against Lee and Kwon and investigate whether there are additional suspects involved in drug offenses.
Earlier, while verifying intelligence that drugs were being distributed at the entertainment establishment, the police detected suspicions against Lee and Kwon. Under the Act on the Control of Narcotics, Lee and Kwon were each booked on charges related to marijuana, psychotropic substances, and narcotics, and A was arrested on psychotropic substance charges. A is also accused of extorting 350 million won from Lee by intimidation.
