Yoo Ah In tested positive for Marijuana

Feb 10, 2023 20:41

It has been confirmed that actor Yoo Ah In, who is suspected of habitually using propofol, a psychotropic drug, tested positive for 'marijuana' in a drug evaluation by the National Institute of Scientific Investigation (NFS). The police also launched an investigation into Yoo Ah In's use of cannabis.

A drug expert said, “Tetrahydrocannabinol (THC), the main component of hemp, is usually not detected in urine after 7 to 10 days. It is estimated that hemp has been used recently.” In the case of propofol, it disappears from the body after 3 or 4 days, making it difficult to confirm with a urine test.

Yoo Ah In's alleged use of marijuana was revealed through the police's own investigation, separate from the previous complaint by the Ministry of Food and Drug Safety. It is known that the police previously executed a search and seizure warrant for Yoo Ah In at Incheon International Airport on the 5th, confirmed a THC positive reaction in a simple urine test (AccuSign), and requested an appraisal to the National Forensic Service for more precise identification. The results of Yoo Ah-in's hair evaluation will take about 10 more days.

THC, which causes hallucinations, is a substance regulated under the Narcotics Control Act. Hemp is basically classified into marijuana, which is highly hallucinogenic and addictive, and hemp, which contains less than 0.3% THC. Domestic law prohibits the use of both without a medical prescription.
