So we just recently left-off with DMTN‘s Daniel in trouble with the police for selling and using weed, and I was anxiously waiting his company’s explanation. Well, we got it, and it’s … uh … interesting?
The label confirmed that he had not smoked it himself, revealing, “At first, the prosecutors suspected him of smoking it himself and ran a drug test on his hair and urine. However, all his tests came back negative. He was acquitted on the charge that he smoked marijuana, and was investigated for the other charges.”
The agency also apologized for his actions, saying, “Daniel immaturely and thoughtlessly believed that as long as he did not smoke himself, it wasn’t a big crime, and that’s what led to this incident.” They also stated that he admitted to the charges and was complying actively with the police and prosecutors’ investigations. The label added, “He’s currently deeply reflecting on his actions. He feels guilty that he acted rashly and committed such a big crime.”
“Daniel has not received a court sentence yet, but he does not want to make excuses for his mistakes. He wants to pay the consequences under the law, and the staff is supportive of his decision. We plan to help him mature as a member of society in the future.”
WAT
So he admits to DEALING weed, but not SMOKING weed because he thought smoking it was illegal but dealing it was … what? Fine?

I feel like netizens should excuse him from repenting and all that just for the fact that his company is dumb enough to make this his excuse.
Motherfucker, just be like Big Bang‘s G-Dragon and blame it on a strange Japanese guy offering you a cigarette — that happens to be laced with weed — through a club bathroom gloryhole or whatever.
Come on.
Asian Junkie Asian pop. Without discretion.
Obviously Daniel was selling it to his reps.
Yes. You win.
Well um… it is Korea… and I’m sure if doing weed is on the same level as crack, heroine, etc… I’m pretty sure being the one distributing it is uh….. pretty bad too? Giving out illegal stuff makes it… illegal. *shakes head*
Wait, so if someone does crack/heroine, etc., what happens to them then? I can totally see Jaejoong doing some crack.
Seen as a traitor and get sent to North Korea, I dunnoooo.
I wonder if a full-out confession would have worked instead of the “I thought selling isn’t AS bad” because that is fooling no one.
Surprisingly, everyone is saying how foolish Daniel was and actually pitying the rest of the group. I liked DMTN too and is one of the few boy groups I (BOUGHT albums for). I hope the group can pull out of this mess.
Where the hell is this kid’s lawyer? His company sure as shit isn’t helping him.
THE FUCK
Just came back home, not gonna lie – this shit kinda ruined my day.
I like Daniel and DMTN. And they are fucking screwed now. Oh Daniel, what a dumbass you are, selling weed in freaking Korea…
He has lots of idol friends, I wonder who his clients were :o
So, apparently, he wasn’t selling directly and just introduced some guys to each other, or what? Somebody enlighten me :o
That’s what I’m seeing, so I don’t know if it’s a translational error on AKP’s part or what.
I’m guessing he used the traditional “I was just holding it for a friend” excuse, and this became ‘he was going to give it to someone else’ became AKP’s ‘he was going to sell it to someone else.’
No, scratch that, I’m dumb. Saw in the comments on AKF that on 2works official g+ page they’re now saying it went down like this:
Someone asked Daniel if he knew where to get weed, and Daniel told them.
Oppa didn’t mean it
Hahaha, I want to know who was buying it form him, exept the head management of his company, because you clearly have to be on something to give that kind of excuses.
Honestly, my pick would be Hyoyeon, girl looks like she’s high half of the time.
That’s Hyoyeon still recovering from her facial surgery
I’ve seen some dumb company statements before but this is pretty… wow.
It’s either the company making the dumb excuse for Daniel, or Daniel believing it really WAS okay. Either way, someone was asleep during their 3rd grade “Drugs are bad” health class..
I thought the excuse they’d give would be better. Something like he was an orphan and had to pay his way through college or his little brother had a rare disease, but nope. Their excuse: He didn’t know it was bad! -_-
I’m certain the real reason is either a) someone threatened him to/family business (?) or b) boy wasn’t getting enough green, so he decided to sell the bad green to get the good green XD The reason the company gives just makes him sound like a complete moron
Well, there goes any shot of Gurupop season 2 for now.
Damn. I was kinda looking forward to that.
what a dumbass and such a stupid excuse even the kids down the block would come up with a better excuse
Since he from LA he should of said he used it for medical purposes or some shit like that
Man, this year is starting out great with the scandals.
I kinda feel bad for the kid (stress the word kinda). Obviously the idol world sucks hardcore if homeboy has to deal on the side.
All those crazy tattoos don’t pay for themselves.
I’m also hoping that “he admitted to the charges and was complying actively with the police and prosecutors’ investigations” means he may divulge on who he’s been dealing to. Maybe… k-pop idols in Japanese bathrooms. Eh? Eh?
Sitting with my tub of popcorn and waiting for this to happen.
He’s hot so idgaf if he shot Kennedy. I feel bad for DMTN, I actually liked them.
Well that explain the high dog jokes
well heres my reaction

hahahahahaha!
He admitted to Aiding in the distribution of weed not selling , next time someone ask you where you can score some kush ask them for the secret handshake.
He’s an American male in his early 20s. This level of stupidity is actually quite normal for them.
This is too damn bad. I actually liked Dalmatian, DMTN, what the fuck ever. They had talent. And apparently their own supplier.
Why did they decide to go with that photo? This is all that comes to mind when I see it: http://preview.tinyurl.com/bdevxjf
But maybe Mary sold pot. Who knows?
Aren’t Amber of f(x) and Daniel friends? Wow, I wonder if she knew.
