K-netizens react to how G-Dragon got caught in the crossfire according to Dispatch

AKP STAFF

Two days ago, Dispatch exposed the truth about how G-Dragon was embroiled in the drug scandal involving Lee Sun Gyun.

On November 22, Dispatch released a report stating that the Incheon Metropolitan Police summoned two high-profile celebrities for a series of drug investigations without proper evidence.

The incident came to light to the public when it was revealed that Lee Sun Gyun was the top celebrity being investigated for drug suspicions. More information was revealed that Lee Sun Gyun was a top 1% VIP customer of a room salon, an adult entertainment establishment. The actor asserted that he had been victimized by the establishment's manager 'A' and was blackmailed to pay over 300 million KRW (233,000 USD).

With the public's interest gathering to the case, Dispatch delved deep into the case and found that G-Dragon was dragged into the case after the establishment's manager claimed that he was also a customer of the entertainment establishment. This manager was booked at least five times previously due to drug use.

However, there was no solid evidence proving that G-Dragon had visited the establishment or had any contact with the establishment manager 'A,' who claimed that she had connections to the artist. Netizens expressed strong frustration and disbelief upon learning that the police initiated an investigation into G-Dragon based solely on allegations made by an individual with a history of multiple convictions. This decision sparked significant controversy, as many questioned the credibility of the claims given the accuser's questionable past.


K-netizens commented, "So this woman claimed that GD came to the entertainment establishment. The police trusting her words, investigated but there was no record of GD entering the establishment. She also claimed to have a video of GD in the bathroom but even after forensic analysis of her phone, the police couldn't find such video. She bragged to her friends about exchanging messages with GD but when the police asked for her chat log, there was none. All the warrants were rejected because there was no evidence. Conclusion: the woman with six criminal records, fabricated the whole story," "So she's a woman who always lied that top celebrities came to see her at the establishment but the police believed in her lies and investigated. But they couldn't find anything, not even a record of GD entering the establishment, and he even tested negative for all the drug tests," "Well we can't curse at the police because they were investigating the case according to testimonies but the media released provocative articles about this. It's not like the police came out to the public and gave a briefing about the case," "That female manager had prior offenses and there was room for doubt on what she said so the police had to investigate but the media pre-maturely released the news to the public," "GD should sue that entertainment establishment b***ch and the police at this point," "I'm not GD's fan but I feel so bad for him," and "If this incident escalates, GD could file a substantial lawsuit, as the police, who carried out the investigation based on insufficient evidence for publicizing false information, may be in serious trouble. The situation is at a point where someone needs to step down. A sincere apology to GD should be in order."

She probably only named him to try and save herself and police went with it. Unfortunately, since he doesn’t have the best public image, the police probably thought they would find something but this why you should never judge a book by its cover. Hopefully they’ll face some kind of consequence for not doing the investigation correctly and leaking things to the media

Can I also remind everyone that Lee Sun-kyun doesn't have a drugs scandal either, he's tested negative for everything they've tested him for. He may well have frequented an entertainment establishment, but he hasn't been doing drugs.

.

Both men had their names leaked to the media, they both deserve an abject apology and compensation for lost income and their legal costs from defending the media fallout, from the police. Whoever it was leaked the case details should be disciplined and lose their job.
