Korean Entertainment's Propofol Saga Continues: R&B Singer Wheesung Also Being Investigated

Wheesung, Korean R&B singer, has been placed under speculation for the usage of Profopol. A similar faceless rumor arose last year when Amy's Profopol abuse was made public. In was said that there was a male singer in the army who was also taking the drug.

After some speculation, the singer Wheesung has been put into question, linking him with the breaks that he takes from the army in order to administer Profopol from a number of clinics since 2011. Police have dug up records from two medical clinics in April that shows the days in which the singer took his time off. Further investigation has proven that Wheesung was indeed administered Proforol as well as Valium, illegally,  during the days that he was on vacation.

The singer's lawyers stated, "All the reps of the clinics that Wheesung visited testified that he was not illegally administered propofol, but that he had been administered the drug for its original use as anesthesia... Various clinics and medical professionals have submitted their official opinions about how in the case of Wheesung's procedures, propofol is often used. Even the prosecution has asked us to gather statements like this."

"This case is different from that of Lee Seung Yeon, Hyun Young, and other celebrities who have been administered propofol for illegal purposes. You cannot compare this case with those cases as they are different.  It is certain that Wheesung is not at fault. Even if he is indicted, it's already been concluded internally among legal representatives that he won't be found guilty."

The lawyers stressed once again that Wheesung is innocent, saying, "Wheesung feels he has been wronged. He has been hurt by this even though it's not true and his activities after being discharged from the military will also take a hit."

So this is another classic He said, She said, They all said case. What are your takes on this story?
