Following the recent drug scandals in the industry, a rumor involving a male idol is stirring online communities. 

On October 15th, an unconfirmed rumor swept multiple online communities. The post says "Soon, there will be an idol member's drug scandal" and explains "Lee, a male idol under a big entertainment label, has been sponsored by an affluent business person A. Lee has been receiving expensive gifts, cars, and cash for over a year in their relationship. But A found out Lee was dating actor K behind A's back. In retaliation, A plans to reveal Lee's drug (philopon) abuses." 

As this rumor has not been verified at all, many are worried about witch-hunting innocent victims.
