Singer Nam Tae-hyun and broadcaster Seo Min-jae, who are suspected of violating the Narcotic Drugs Control Act (psychiatry), are attending the first trial held at the Western District Court in Mapo-gu, Seoul on the morning of the 19th. Seo Min-jae and Nam Tae-hyun were caught up in a drug scandal in August last year. Seo Min-jae, who was a contestant on Channel A’s entertainment program ‘Heart Signal 3’ at the time, revealed Philopon use with Nam Tae-hyun through SNS. Accordingly, in September last year, the police collected urine and hair from Seo Min-jae and Nam Tae-hyeon and requested analysis from the National Institute of Forensic Science. The test results reportedly came back positive for Philopon. 2023.10.19 / Photo = Kim Chang-hyun Broadcaster Seo Min-jae, who was sent to trial on charges of using Philopon, resumed SNS (social network service) after about two years and posted an apology as criticism arose after revealing his current status.
On the 2nd, Seo Min-jae posted on his Instagram, “I will live while reflecting on the mistakes I made.”
He wrote, “It’s okay for you to criticize me. It’s my responsibility and it’s my responsibility. But please don’t say bad things about the people who helped me and gave me the opportunity to live part-time so that I could somehow live again. Please, please.”

Afterwards, when it was reported that Seo Min-jae was working part-time at a cafe in Gyeonggi-do, some people criticized, asking, “Are you still using social media after going through something like that?”
Accordingly, Seo Min-jae appears to have deleted the previously uploaded video and posted an apology.
Seo Min-jae made his face known by appearing on Channel A’s entertainment show ‘Heart Signal 3’. However, controversy arose when he confessed on social media in August 2022 that he had taken drugs with his lover, former Winner singer Nam Tae-hyun.
As a result of a request to the National Forensic Service, Nam Tae-hyun and Seo Min-jae tested positive for Philopon, and in the second trial held on the 7th of last month, the prosecution requested two years in prison for Nam Tae-hyun and one year in prison for Seo Min-jae.
