In the ongoing developments surrounding G-Dragon's recent investigation on drug-related charges, his advisory counsel has issued a new statement. On October 25, reports emerged that G-Dragon had been booked by the Incheon Metropolitan Police Agency. Two days later, on October 27, the singer himself released a statement through his legal representative.
In the latest update on October 30, lawyer Kim Soo Hyun, representing G-Dragon, provided further information regarding the case:
“This is Kwon Ji Yong’s (G-Dragon’s) advisory counsel, lawyer Kim Soo Hyun of K1 Chamber LLP.
As clearly revealed already, it is not true that Kwon Ji Yong used drugs.
Regarding this, Kwon Ji Yong appointed a lawyer and submitted a statement of intent for voluntary attendance to the Incheon Metropolitan Police Agency’s Narcotics Unit of the Regional Investigation Department with the appointed lawyer this morning.
Through the statement of intent for voluntary attendance and a written opinion of counsel, Kwon Ji Yong expressed his intent for voluntary attendance and his intent to actively cooperate with the investigation, and in order to resolve the false accusations as quickly as possible through a rapid investigation process to reveal the truth, he stated to the police that he will actively cooperate with the hair follicle test and urine test. His schedule for voluntary attendance is currently being discussed.
Recent speculative false reports and YouTube videos regarding this case such as the appointment of a lawyer who is a former constitutional judge and an excessively high lawyer payment are being released thoughtlessly, but we clearly reveal that these are not true at all, and we will take strong legal action against these types of speculative reports for the circulation of false information and defamation.”
