On November 18, Chosun.com reported a statement from Kim Na-jung’s legal representative, lawyer Kim Yeon-gi of Chungjeong Law Firm, that Kim Na-jung was forced to inhale drugs during a business trip in the Philippines.
Regarding his trip to the Philippines, Kim Na-jung’s side denied suspicions of “sponsorship,” saying: “She went there to promote beauty products and met young businessman “A”.“
Regarding drug use, Kim Na-jung’s side said: “While intoxicated during a drinking session, her hands were tied and she was blindfolded before being forced to inhale drug fumes by A..”
They further said that evidence of the incident remains on Kim Na-jung’s phone. They suggested: “It appears that A, concerned about problems that might arise if he filmed with his phone, used Kim Na-jung’s phone to record the incident, intending to transfer the footage via AirDrop or similar means.“
Furthermore, Kim Na-jung’s side stated: “Before forcibly administering the drugs, A showed Kim Na-jung a gun and made remarks suggesting that killing someone would be easy.” During police interrogation, Kim Na-jung reportedly confirmed that A was a wanted man involved in multiple crimes.
On November 12, Kim Na-jung caused a stir by uploading a rambling post via his personal account, claiming he confessed to drug use. Upon his return to Korea, police at Incheon International Airport conducted a drug test, which tested positive for philopon.
As a result, the Drug Crime Investigation Unit of the Gyeonggi Bukbu Provincial Police Agency arrested Kim Na-jung without detention on November 15 for violating the Narcotics Control Law.
Lawyer Kim stressed: “Kim Na-jung is a victim of this situation and intends to clarify this in subsequent proceedings. We ask that speculation be curbed and Kim Na-jung supported during this period.”
Kim Na-jung, born in 1992, is a well-known lingerie model in South Korea. She graduated from Ewha Womans University and previously worked as a weather MC and editor at KBS. Five years ago, she gained greater fame after winning a modeling competition held by Maxim Korea magazine.
