Lee Seon-gyun, who was 'silent' when asked about the charges, tested negative on a simple drug reagent test.

Actor Lee Sun-gyun (48), who was suspected of drug use, tested negative in a simple drug reagent test.

On the 28th, the Incheon Police Agency's drug crime investigation unit announced that a simple drug reagent test was conducted on Lee Seon-gyun, who appeared on charges of marijuana and psychotropic drugs under the Narcotics Management Act, and the result was negative.

However, because the accuracy of the simple test is low, the police sends Lee Seon-gyun's hair and urine to the National Institute of Forensic Science for detailed analysis. In general, it is said that simple tests are only available for evaluation within 5 to 10 days. In order to analyze the past history beyond that, a detailed analysis by the National Forensic Service is needed.

On the 25th, the police received a search and seizure warrant for Lee Seon-gyun from the court and executed the warrant during the reagent test that day. It is said that it will take about a month for the National Forensic Service test results to come out. Through the subsequent investigation, the police plan to determine the specific details of the incident related to the charges, such as whether Lee Sun-kyun used drugs, the type, and the number of drugs.

Meanwhile, Lee Sun-gyun attended the Incheon Nonhyeon Police Station in Namdong-gu, Incheon at around 4:40 pm on the 28th and bowed his head and apologized, saying, "I sincerely apologize for causing great disappointment to many people by being involved in such an unpleasant incident. I am sorry." He then bowed his head again, saying, “More than anything, I will once again bow my head in apology to everyone who has believed in and supported me.”

Afterwards, Lee Sun-gyun said, "As I conveyed through my agency, my position to faithfully engage in the investigation with a sincere attitude has not changed," and added, "I feel sorry for the families who are enduring such difficult pain at this moment. Once again, I sincerely apologize to everyone. “I apologize,” he said again. During this process, Lee Seon-kyun appeared to be crying with a somewhat trembling voice.

Afterwards, Lee Seon-gyun left the police station at 5:46 PM, about an hour later. Before getting into the car to return home, Lee Seon-kyun was asked by reporters, "What part did you focus on explaining?" He said, "I have already submitted my cell phone," and "I have listened carefully to the requests required for the next official investigation." He then said, “They say they will call for an investigation soon, so I will answer sincerely then,” and added, “I’ll stop. I’m sorry.”

When asked about admitting the charges, he said, "I will faithfully deal with the allegations during the next investigation," and when asked if he had received threats, he added, "I will also faithfully respond and explain."

When asked how he felt about being investigated by the police, he said, "I am very sorry for disappointing everyone who supported me, and I will faithfully conduct the investigation in the future," and got into the vehicle.

On the 24th, the Incheon Police Agency's drug crime investigation unit booked Lee Seon-gyun without detention on the charge of psychotropic drugs in addition to marijuana under the Narcotics Management Act. Police believe that Lee Seon-gyun misused not only drugs such as marijuana, but also anesthetics and sleeping pills used for medical purposes.

It has been five days since Lee Sun-gyun was booked as a criminal without detention on the 23rd that he was summoned for investigation. In this investigation, the police are expected to check whether Lee Sun-gyun used drugs based on the internal investigation and investigation conducted after admission, and if so, will focus on interrogating him about the frequency and arbitrariness of drug use.

Seon-gyun Lee is suspected of taking drugs with Mr. A at the home of Mr. A (29, female), the manager of an entertainment establishment in Gangnam. Mr. A is currently in custody, and the case is currently ongoing as he is being accused of blackmail by Seon-gyun Lee. The relationship between Lee Sun-gyun's drug charges and Mr. A's blackmail and threats charges is expected to become an issue.

Meanwhile, Mr. A, who can be seen as the nucleus of the drug gate that recently hit the entertainment industry, is accused of taking drugs at his home with Lee Sun-gyun and later extorting about 300 million won through threats. Mr. A was a habitual user of drugs, to the extent that he was found to be cultivating cannabis at an acquaintance's house where he was hiding, and it is highly likely that he was recommending or supplying drugs to customers who frequented the entertainment establishment where he worked. is watching.
