Another star recently made a comeback after a drug controversy. In July 2017, T.O.P, who was given a two-year suspended sentence for smoking marijuana, canceled his retirement and returned as an actor through Netflix’s “Squid Game 2.”
When T.O.P returned, everything from the cast to the acting skills became controversial. Despite the cold public opinion, T.O.P was back in front of the public with “Squid Game 2“, and recently stated in media interviews that he would acknowledge his past mistakes and start a fight to overcome his shameful past.
After T.O.P, NAM TAE HYUN, artists who have been controversial because of the drug controversy have returned one after another, and the focus is on whether the public will accept him.
