On the July 17 edition of JTBC's 'Ssul Jeon', the members discussed the big drug controversy surrounding Park Bom, who was revealed by media outlet Segye Ilbo to have attempted to illegally smuggle amphetamines into South Korea from the United States back in 2010, but was not tried under a court of law. Although the news came out very belatedly this year, Heechul revealed that he had first heard about it around the time it actually happened.
Heechul stated, "Celebrities hear about rumors like this very early on. I was drinking with some reporters [four years ago] at a bar when this topic had came up. The reporters said, 'YG is going to burst soon,' but the report didn't even come out in the end. I thought, 'This is why reporters get so much criticism,' and thought it was just a false rumor, but the report came out recently."
Meanwhile, netizens are asking Park Bom to step down from her variety program 'Roommate' due to the amphetamine issue as well as cursing scandal (a bleeped out portion during the Park Min Woo driving scene) and Heechul will be stepping down from his post in 'Ssul Jeon' by personal choice. He relayed his good-bye message on the show, explaining that it was too difficult for him to talk about his close friends and that he would be going back and forth overseas due to the busy Super Junior comeback schedule!
You can watch that in the clip below.
