On the 19th, By4M Studio, the distributor of 'Victory', announced that Yoo Ah-in will not participate in various promotional events such as movie premieres, press conferences, and interviews.
The movie 'Victory' tells the story of Korea's best 'Go Legend' Cho Hoon-hyun (played by Lee Byung-hun) once again challenging the top with his natural temperament as a adventurer after losing a match against his student.
Initially, 'Victory' was distributed to Ace Maker MovieWorks and was scheduled to be released on Netflix. However, as Yoo Ah-in was suspected of taking drugs, Netflix also temporarily put the release on hold.
In the end, Yoo Ah-in was released on the 18th when he was sentenced to one year in prison, two years of probation, and a fine of 2 million won in an appeal trial, and the drifting 'Victory' also confirmed its release in March. Yoo Ah-in returned to the screen a month after his release.
However, the production team thoroughly erased Yoo Ah-in from the trailers and posters that were released ahead of its release in March.
Looking at the trailer, it was like Lee Byung-hun's one-top movie. Initially, 'Victory' was a two-top film in which Lee Byung-hun and Yoo Ah-in played Cho Hoon-hyun 9th dan and Lee Chang-ho 9th dan, but Yoo Ah-in was edited in such a way that only the back of playing Go with Lee Byung-hun appeared.
As a result, there is growing curiosity about what Yoo Ah-in will look like and how much she will appear in the movie, and attention is being paid to whether the winning move that completely erased one of the two top actors from the trailer will work.
Earlier, at 2:20 p.m. on the 18th, an appeal hearing was held at the Seoul High Court for toddlers accused of violating the Narcotics Control Act.
On this day, the court sentenced Yoo Ah-in to one year in prison, two years of probation, and a fine of 2 million won.
This is the result of a reduction from the first trial, which sentenced him to a one-year prison term and a fine of 2 million won.
From September 2020 to March 2022, Yoo Ah-in was accused of taking a total of four medical drugs, 9.6 liters of propofol, 567 mg of midazolam, 200 mg of remimazolam, and 10.7 ml of ketamine, 181 times under the guise of sleep anesthesia for cosmetic procedures.
He is also accused of illegally prescribing 1,100 two types of sleeping pills in the name of another person 44 times from May 2021 to August 2022. He was also accused of smoking hemp three times in the United States and teaching it to an acquaintance he was with to hide this fact.
