Shin Junghwan Returning to Korea After 4 Months

After four long months of Shin Junghwan being in hiding, he’s going ot finally return this Wednesday to Korea.

Back in September of 2010, Shin Junghwan, a comedian and singer suddenly went missing. He canceled various television appearances, claiming he was stuck in the Philippines because he caught dengue fever. Later on it was reported that this was not the truth.
Apparently, Junghwan had gone on a gambling spree while he was in the Philippines which immersed him in a very large scandal. He quickly canceled a flight and suddenly disappeared. However, he did try to continue insisting on his story of being sick with posting an image of himself in a hospital. Once reporters interviewed hospital staff they came to report that the story was false.
The photo below is the one that was posted on the portal site, but was reported to be a fake.
Due to the gambling spree, Junghwan lost a lot of money and has placed himself in a very large sum of debt. Many reporters were seeking him to figure out what had gone wrong for the star. He continued to remain hidden away from any press, until recently. He is now expected to return to Korea on Wednesday after a long hiatus.
Many await his side of the story to find out if he was being truthful about the illness or if there is truly an issue with gambling. Until then stay tuned to KPOPLIVE for more Kpop Music News and updates on your favorite Kpop Idols!
