Actor Kim Sung Min Sentenced to Prison for Drug Use

Actor Kim Sung Min was sentenced to 10 months in prison for drug use.

On September 2, Kim Sung Min was sentenced to 10 months in prison and fined 700,000 KRW (approx. $593 USD).

The judge ruled, “In 2011, he was sentenced to two years and then received four years of probation for the same charges. Since he committed the same crime during the probation period, a prison sentence was unavoidable.”

They then explained, “The fact that he admitted all his crimes and that he was sorry was taken into consideration.”

Earlier, prosecutors demanded two years in prison and 1,700,000 KRW (approx. $1441 USD), saying, “Kim Sung Min has admitted to the charges and is reflecting. However, since the crime was committed during the probation period, the crime is serious.”

Meanwhile, it was reported on March 11 that Kim Sung Min was arrested for the possession of methamphetamines, and on April 10, he admitted to all charges.
