HINDI na puwedeng lumabas o mapa­nood si Park Yoo Chun sa MBC Network, isa sa pinakamalalaking broadcasting stations sa South Korea.

Ayon sa ulat ng SpoTV News last May, officially suspended na raw ang aktor sa nasabing network dahil sa issue nito sa droga.

“Park Yoo Chun hadn’t appeared on an MBC program for many years. He evoked criticism from society through the drug-related suspicions, and it appears that his suspension from appearing on the network was made official after his positive drug test during the investigation and his arrest,” ang pahayag daw ng source ng SpoTV News.

Nitong July 10 ay kinumpirma na ng MBC na nagdesisyon ang mana­gement last May 15 na ilagay si Yoo Chun sa list ng mga suspended artists.

Matatandaang kinasuhan si Yoo Chun dahil sa pagbili at paggamit ng Philopon on several occasions, a violation of the Narcotics Control Act.

“He received a 10-month prison sentence suspended for two years of probation and treatment, and he was fined 1.4 million won (approximately $1,189). The probation means that if he commits an offense during the two-year period, he will receive a 10-month prison sentence,” ayon sa report ng Soompi.

Matapos ang kumpir-masyon ng MBC sa suspension ni Yoo Chun, natanong na rin ang dalawa pang giant networks na SBS and KBS kung sususpendihin din ba nila ang aktor.

Ayon sa isang source mula sa SBS ay hindi sila basta-basta nagsususpinde ng artist.

“Contrary to MBC, SBS does not have a list of people who are suspended from appearing. We do not immediately suspend the appearances of celebrities who evoke criticism from society. In the case that they are to make an appearance in the future, during the casting process we examine factors such as whether they have had sufficient time to self-reflect.

“In regards to a suspension on Park Yoo Chun’s appearances, his name hasn’t yet been mentioned at SBS,” pahayag ng source.

Isang maikling “We cannot verify this,” naman ang sagot ng source ng KBS nang matanong tungkol sa suspension ni Park Yoo Chun.
