Choi will participate in the association’s future events and promotions to provide information about the side effects of illegal drugs.
“Celebrities and renowned personalities getting caught using illegal drugs […] may result in teenagers copying such actions, which is a problem in our society,” Choi Phil-yeo, the Chairman of the Korea Association Against Drug Abuse, said Thursday in a press release.
“I’m glad that Choi Si-won, a righteous and upright entertainer, now sits at the forefront of the battle against illegal drugs.”
