Park Yoochun has spoken out regarding the rumors that have recently surfaced.
On the 22nd, Park Yoochun posted a message in Japanese on his social media, saying, "There are so many rumors about things I have never even thought about or said." He continued, "It was shocking to hear these stories for the first time today. I ask that you please believe only what I have personally said."
This post drew attention as it was uploaded following news that his former fiancée, Hwang Hana, was arrested on charges of violating the Narcotics Control Act once again. Rumors have said that certain celebrities' names were mentioned during Hwang Hana's testimony, leading to speculations.
In 2019, Park Yoochun was indicted on charges of using drugs together with Hwang Hana and was sentenced to 10 months in prison, suspended for 2 years. At the time, he held a press conference asserting his innocence, stating, "If I really did use drugs, I will retire from the entertainment industry." However, his charges were confirmed after he tested positive in a National Forensic Service examination.
Although he had announced his retirement, he later reversed this decision and continued activities overseas. He held fan meetings and performances in Japan and Thailand. However, his activities in South Korea have effectively been halted due to dispute over exclusive contracts and controversies involving large-scale, habitual tax delinquencies.
Recently, it was reported that his damages lawsuit with a former agency had concluded in settlement. However, Park Yoochun has faced criticism for not providing separate explanations regarding the various suspicions and speculations surrounding him until now.
