Yoo Ah In issues apology statement after police probe over drug abuse, “My self-justification was a fallacy that could never cover up my foolish choices”
“This is Yoo Ah In,” Yoo Ah I began the apology letter, as translated by the Korean tabloid Soompi. “I made an insufficient apology right after the police investigation yesterday. I would like to apologize once again for disappointing many people who have loved and cherished me with this shameful incident. I am sorry.”
In the letter, the actor reflected on his past actions and apologized to his co-stars saying, “Also, I would like to deliver the apologies that I was unable to express yesterday to those who have worked with me in valuable projects such as films, dramas, and advertisements. I deeply reflect on the moments when I have been irresponsible for my heavy responsibilities, and I apologize for causing damage to my many colleagues and staff who worked to achieve their own precious dreams and goals.”
He further wrote, “I will do my best to fulfill my responsibilities. Many people supported me and gave me unsparing encouragement and affection, but I feel great regret and shame for the fact that I was harming myself while continuing my career as an actor. Also, I have hurt many people with my mistake. I am sorry. During the insufficient time of reflection after the incident surfaced, I recognized clearly that my mistake is a mistake that cannot be covered by any excuse. My self-justification was a fallacy that could never cover up my foolish choices.”
Concluding the letter, he wrote, “I will diligently participate in the upcoming investigation and will gladly accept all of your criticisms and punishment by the law. Once again, I would like to express my deepest apologies. I’m sorry.”
Yoo Ah In was investigated by the police for illegal use of drugs like propofol, marijuana, cocaine and ketamine and apologized publicly after 48 days (about 1 and a half months) of silence. As reported by the outlet, on March 27, Yoo Ah In was summoned by the Seoul Metropolitan Police’s Drug Crime Investigation Unit and was investigated for about 12 hours.
