K-drama star Yoo Ah-in’s drug use probe leaves South Korean film industry in panic

South Korean police are looking into actor Yoo Ah-in’s alleged illegal use of an anaesthetic drug, and all eyes within the film industry are now fixed on the findings of the investigation, as Yoo was set to appear in numerous films and series this year including Netflix’s The Match .

The 36-year-old is suspected of having used Propofol, a sleep-inducing drug, for non-medical purposes habitually.

The Ministry of Food and Drug Safety requested a police investigation, as his prescription purchases were “too frequent.”
