Shin Dong-yup leaves 'Three Friends' due to marijuana incident

Actor Yoon Da-hoon summoned Shin Dong-yup's 'cannabis incident'.

In the SBS entertainment show 'My Little Old Boy' (hereinafter referred to as 'My Little Old Boy') that aired on the 12th, the daily life of Yoon Da-hoon, a father of 7 years of wild goose, was revealed.

Da-hoon Yoon raised his eldest daughter alone while serving in the military, then married his current wife in 2007 and welcomed his second daughter. Currently, his wife and two daughters have left for Canada and have been living as wild goose dads for seven years.

On this day, Dong-gun Lee, the main character of 'Three Friends', visited Da-hoon Yoon's house, and Da-hoon Yoon showed off a photo of his granddaughter, and Dong-gun Lee showed off a photo of his 8-year-old daughter, forming a consensus.

Da-Hoon Yoon said, “Do you know the story of how I became Da-Hoon Yoon from ‘Three Friends’?” and “The director contacted me. He said he wanted to meet me while he was preparing his work. The title is ‘Three Friends’. Can we do this together? It's a friend role in 'Three Friends'. “Shin Dong-yeop, Park Sang-myeon, and Jeong Woong-in are three friends,” he said, adding that the initial casting offer was not for the lead role in “Three Friends.”

He then said, “I did, but at that time, due to unavoidable social circumstances, Dong-yup couldn’t do it,” referring to an incident in which Shin Dong-yup was arrested on charges of smoking marijuana. Shin Dong-yeop said, "As the sitcom 'Three Men, Three Women' did well, the production team that worked with us got together and asked to do an adult sitcom. That was 'Three Friends'. Casting was almost done," and "But that happened a few days before filming. “This happened and I had to start filming right away, so I felt sorry for everyone,” he explained.

Shin Dong-yeop continued, “In the end, we decided to have Da-hoon Yoon as ‘Three Friends’ and it was a huge hit. For me, a man named Da-Hoon Yoon was a savior. He said he was endlessly grateful. “Dahun also bought me a drink and said he was sorry and thanked me,” he added.
