The singer G-Dragon (Kwon Ji-Yong) is a rumored drug addict, and the police requested a search warrant to get their contact information. The court denied their request.


The court had earlier rejected a warrant for the communication details of Kwon to be seized and searched.


The argument put out was that the court denied the request due to the lack of adequate evidence to support the crime.


Before deciding whether to reapply for a warrant, the police plan to carry out a supporting investigation.


Kwon's voluntary attendance is set by the police for the sixth of the upcoming month.


Through an advice counsel, Kwon informed the police previously that he intended to appear voluntarily. Since then, he has collaborated with the police to set up his timetable for attendance.


To find out if Kwon was taking drugs, the police want to put him through a straightforward reagent test.


Through an advising lawyer, Kwon had earlier refuted the accusations made against him once more, claiming, "I have never taken drugs."
