He was detained for investigation over suspected illegal drug use upon his arrival at Incheon International Airport the previous day. Recently, Chun Woo-won referred to his grandfather as "a slaughterer" due to the military's brutal suppression of the Gwangju uprising after he seized power through a coup in 1979.
