Considering that it was the idol’s first offense, and only a tiny amount of the drug was detected, the prosecution decided to “suspend indictment”.
The Seoul Central District Prosecutor Office explained, “Taking into account that G-Dragon is a college student and a first-time offender, we decided not to indict him.” The prosecutor acknowledges G-Dragon’s criminal charges, but will not bring him to court for a trial due to many factors such as: age, criminal motive, and remorse.
However, Jeon Gyung Soo, the former director of the Korean Police Narcotics Bureau stated, “It’s really rare for a hair drug test to come out positive just because a couple puffs of marijuana.”
Netizens have also been speculating that there was an ulterior motive behind G-Dragon’s shaved haircut. However, YG Entertainment asserted that there is nothing to it, particularly since he cut his hair long after the testing.
Netizens have had mixed reactions such as, “I don’t know what’s going on, but it is true that G-Dragon did wrong. He should formally apologize and self-reflect on his actions“, “I was really anticipating his comeback. He should make a formal apology for his reputation“, and “Yes, it does seem strange that the hair drug test came out positive if he only took a few puffs“.

The duo went on to reveal that they came together during the darkest moment of their lives under their mutual love for music. For 10 years, they’ve worked without end to pursue the music they want.

In junior high, my nickname was ‘Dog’, so I ended up being called Gary.” The word ‘Gae‘ means ‘dog’ in Korean, so ‘Gary’ just fixed up his old nickname.

Check out their segment below!
On April 23rd, KBS’s “Entertainment Relay” revealed interview footage from the siblings’ CF set, where Uhm Jung Hwa truthfully revealed that opposed her brother’s decision to join ‘1N2D’. Her reason? She was worried that he might not fit in with the cast of professional comedians.
Uhm Jung Hwa revealed, “Our family likes Uhm Tae Woong’s corny jokes. However, I was afraid that the “1N2D” members wouldn’t like them, and Tae Woong would end up being an outcast.”
But Tae Woong’s sister had nothing to fear, since he adjusted well to the ‘1N2D’ cast. Uhm Tae Woong expressed his gratitude towards Uhm Jung Hwa, and even showed tears. Laughing, he grew embarrassed and blamed his age for the tears. Hearing that, Uhm Jung Hwa yelled, “Don’t talk about age in front of me!“, making everyone on set laugh.
Netizens commented, “They are such good siblings” and “I wish I had an older sister like Uhm Jung Hwa.”

On April 23th, the members of f(x), after making their comeback with “Pinocchio”, held an interview withKBS “Entertainment Relay”.
During this broadcast, the reporter asked, “Was there team names other than f(x)?”. To the question, the members answered, “There were a variety of group names that we could have chosen from, some including: ‘the Bomb’, ‘Flowers’, and ‘Miyaho” (because it sounds similar to a cat’s cry, ‘meow’). At one point, we were going to introduce ourselves with ‘Hello! We are group Miyaho!’ and make a cat’s meow sound while posing cutely.”
Good thing all those ideas bombed before settling on f(x).

20 Maret: On March 19th, KBS’s “Entertainment Relay” went behind-the-scenes of miss A’s Suzy’s latest photoshoot and interviewed her on “Dream High” and her recent weight gain.
Asked by the reporter how she felt kissing 2PM’s Taecyeon in “Dream High,” she replied, “Honestly, it was kind of awkward because we weren’t that close yet. Although the scene aired in the 9th or 10th episode, it was filmed earlier on. It was very… awkward.”
The reporter continued, “I heard you got a new nickname, do you know what it is?” Suzy shook her head, leading the reporter to answer, “‘Chubby Suzy.’ Reports said that it was because you had to take herbal medicine during your drama filming.”
Suzy answered, “Yes, I saw those reports too, but it wasn’t because of the medicine. My busy schedule made me bloat and I didn’t have a lot of time to exercise, which is probably what led to my weight gain. I didn’t gain it on purpose (laughter).”

On March 19th, KBS 2TV’s “Entertainment Relay” visited the set of the Brown Eyed Girls‘ Ga-In and actor Song Joong Ki’s advertisement filming.
Both dressed in pure white, the two posed affectionately for the camera with natural acting. Jealous of Song Joong Ki’s beautiful looks, however, Ga-In stuck out her lip and teased towards the camera, “I thought this was a CF for eyeliner, this is so hard. He’s so pretty!”
Song Joong Ki, who has prior experience working with Narsha, stated, “Ga-In is better than Narsha nuna.“ Despite the praise, Ga-In cutely joked back, “Oppa is so much prettier, it’s making me angry.”
When asked to describe any difficulties on the shoot, Song Joong Ki replied, “The director wants us to give off a friendly, cute sort of feel, but we create a sexy atmosphere instead.”
The reporter then told Ga-In that she looked like someone men would fall head over heels for, to which she replied, “To the contrary, I’ve cried a lot because of men. I dated twice, and was dumped both times. I was going to dump them first but I was too weak to say anything.”
Park Bo Young stated, “I don’t have an older brother, so I would love it if Song Joong Ki was my oppa.” The MC then asked Park about what kind of girlfriends she would introduce to him to if he really was her older brother. She replied, “I wouldn’t introduce him to anyone. And if he does get a girlfriend, I’m going to act fussy and picky and ask him to show me who she is.”
Song Joong Ki replied, “I’d like for Park Bo Young to be my younger sister as well, but I have a real younger sister so I’d feel apologetic if she saw this.”
When asked by the MC if he would consider Park Bo Young as his girlfriend instead, he avoided answering by displaying a playfully shocked expression.
The actress was later asked to rate her physical appearance based off her high school graduation photos.
Recently, the photos had been headlining for proving her natural and ever-youthful appearance. She replied, “I don’t think I’m pretty at all. I knew that I wouldn’t be able to rely on my looks, so I worked harder with my acting.
Going back to the topic of siblings, the MC mentioned, “I often hear that you two look alike, particularly with your eyes.”
Upon hearing this, the two came closer and asked viewers to check for themselves.
Park Bo Young and Song Joong Ki also recently tried dubbing for “Rio“, their first animation film. “Everyone told us that we matched. We haven’t worked on it much yet, but since we’ve already met various times on variety programs, we’re not as awkward with each other.”
