G-Dragon is free to travel again! The BIGBANG member was initially slapped with a travel ban after drug use allegations surfaced last month. However, Kwon Jiyong has already tested negative on all drug tests, clearing the idol of all suspicions.
G-Dragon Tests Negative on All Drug Tests, Gets Travel Ban Lifted
The travel ban on G-Dragon has been lifted after receiving a negative result in drug tests. The Drug Crime Investigation Unit of the Incheon Metropolitan Police Agency decided not to extend the ban, which expired around the 25th. The police requested the Ministry of Justice to extend the travel ban on actor Lee Sun-kyun, also under investigation for suspected marijuana and psychotropic substances, indicating potential differences in the direction of their investigations.
Under the Immigration Control Law, the Minister of Justice can impose a departure ban for up to one month during a crime investigation, with the option to extend it if needed. Speculations suggest varying future investigations for G-Dragon and Lee, considering the differing measures regarding the extension of the travel ban.
G-DRAGON keeps stressing to announce the results quickly. He knows that they will use themselves. This is crazy. If two of them cooperate to frame G-DRAGON, it will be really scary. GD's life will be over until all four cases are over. https://t.co/BaPO3efceD

“We cannot yet disclose the exact date of the travel ban release, whether it has been lifted, or the direction of future investigations,” a police representative said.
Despite both individuals receiving ‘negative’ judgments from the National Forensic Service, Lee’s case involves circumstantial evidence, such as text messages, indicating the likelihood of a continued investigation. On the other hand, the possibility of G-Dragon’s case concluding with a ‘non-indictment’ has increased due to the absence of circumstantial evidence and the completion of the National Forensic Service’s precise assessment related to drug administration allegations.
Police refusing to end the investigation against G-Dragon, even they have zero evidences and all tests are clear. It really reminds me when the police told seungri "we have to make you guilty or we'll lose our jobs". Same here. They want to make GD guilty or they will lose jobs.
