2NE1's Park Bom has been belatedly revealed to have tried to smuggle drugs into Korea.
According to an exclusive report by Segye Ilbo, Park Bom used international mail in an attempt to smuggle narcotic amphetamines into Korea back in 2010. However, the prosecutors decided to suspend her case, meaning they would neither investigate nor punish her for the crime.
According to prosecutors on the 30th, Park Bom was caught back on October 12, 2010, trying to use international mail to smuggle 82 pills of amphetamines from the United States, but was caught by customs at the Incheon International Airport.
Amphetamine is a strong central nerve system stimulant, and because it can cause a lot of harm to the body when abused, its use is banned by a Presidential decree. Because its chemical structure is similar to methamphetamine, it is usually considered as methamphetamine when sentences are being dealt out.
