Drugs. Political corruption. Suicide attempts. The recent T.O.P drug scandal has us thinking that K-pop is not so squeaky-clean after all.

Not In T.O.P Form

G-Dragon did it. So did Park Bom and a pre-’Gangnam Style’ Psy. And now another K-pop star has been caught doing drugs. On June 1, news broke that BigBang’s T.O.P had been arrested after testing positive for marijuana. According to a police statement, the 29-year-old rapper smoked marijuana last October, though it’s unclear if he’s a habitual user of the drug. He allegedly smoked weed four times with a woman, reportedly Han Seo Hee, a former Jellyfish Entertainment trainee, at his home in Seoul. Han had reportedly once taunted BigBang fans by posting a comment online that said: “You [expletive] b******. Yes, I hugged and kissed your oppas. You can’t do anything about it, right? Losers.”
