Actor Kang Sung Pil into a marijuana scandal in May of 2011 and is now making his comeback through a movie this year.
"I'm embarrassed of myself even now. I was scared to go out for the past three years. I was too apologetic to se other people... I promise to work hard so that I don't make the same mistake twice. I could never exchange my happiness for any bad seduction that comes my face... If you watch over me once again, I promise that I will become an actor that gives you laughter and joy with my acting."
He was previously given a 6 month prison sentence + 2 years of community service. He then spent 2 years and 5 months in reflection, suffering from sociophobia and depression. He attempted to commit suicide twice during those times.
1. [+619, -69] G-Druggin: Why reflect for three years?? Don't you have your own stupid fangirls? ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ
2. [+456, -22] What a load of bull. He's the one that committed the mistake, why even bother saying he had a hard time and tried to commit suicide? Then he calls the netizens out for being unsympathetic ㅋㅋ Whatever
3. [+382, -14] I don't understand why he's telling the media about his suicide attempts when he was already in the media once for marijuana use. Does he think the word suicide is a trend lately?
4. [+37, -2] This idiot is the one that committed the mistake, why is he trying to gain sympathy by talking about suicide? Should've just gone ahead and died because society would be so much cleaner then
5. [+22, -0] He talks as if suicide is something so easy...
6. [+19, -0] I remember Cha In Pyo saying that no matter how hard a celebrity has it to the point of wanting to commit suicide, they should never let that word come out of their mouth because it's like stealing a flicker of hope from others who are trying to live their life through obstacles and pain.
7. [+9, -0] The fact that he's even talking about suicide means that he never intended to die in the first place... Just a ploy to gain sympathy.
