Lee Sun Kyun's death was not only when he was in the midst of a drug case. Related to this problem, there is also the issue of extortion which has involved several individuals including a woman with the initials A. A is suspected of being involved in an attempt to blackmail the Parasite actor.
According to a KBS report on Thursday December 28, 2023, A tried to run away when he was supposed to attend a trial scheduled at the Incheon District Court on Tuesday December 26, 2023 at 14.30 South Korean time. But A suddenly did not appear in the courtroom.
This incident prompted the police to start a search and issue an arrest warrant for A. After his whereabouts were discovered, the police arrested A by force. After being arrested, A was detained at the Nonhyeon police station in the Incheon area.
He was then immediately questioned and continued to attend a trial presided over by Judge Lee Kyu Hoon from the Incheon District Court on the same day. A was accused of extorting the late actor Lee Sun Kyun in the amount of 50 million won or around Rp. 597 million.
Apart from A, Sun Kyun also reported another woman given the initials B, a 29 year old manager of an entertainment venue. He is also suspected of committing extortion. B allegedly blackmailed Sun Kyun for 300 million Korean won or Rp. 3.5 billion. Sun Kyun claims to have been tricked by B into using drugs.
This case began in September 2023, when the Incheon Police Narcotics Crime Unit received information about the practice of drug use by a manager at an elite club in Gangnam, Seoul. The manager was arrested on September 21, 2023. In his testimony, he dragged the names of Lee Sun Kyun and other parties into the investigation.
Lee Sun Kyun is known to know about the club through acquaintances, being a regular customer, and forming a friendship with the manager. The drug case involving Lee Sun Kyun continues, and his profound death on Wednesday December 27, 2023 adds to the complexity of the situation.
Before his death, Lee Sun Kyun underwent a long examination regarding the drug case that involved him, and he felt that the process was unfair because the perpetrator's confession was the basis for the accusation, even though the test stated that Lee Sun Kyun was negative for drugs.
