Actor Ha Jung-woo (real name Kim Sung-hoon), who was handed over to trial for illegally administering Propofol, was fined 30 million won.

Judge Park Sul-ah of the Seoul Central District Court held a sentence trial for Ha Jung-woo who was indicted on charges of violating the Narcotics Control Act, sentenced him to a fine of 30 million won higher than the prosecution's sentence and ordered an additional fine of 88,700 won.

Judge Park pointed out, "Each crime is not light, and the guilt is heavy because he committed the crime as an actor loved by the public".

In the first trial held last month, the prosecution asked the actor to seek a fine of 10 million won and order an additional fine of 88,749 won, saying, "He has no history of similar crimes and admitted to all charges".

Ha Jung-woo is accused of illegally administering Propofol 19 times while undergoing skin beauty procedures that do not require sleep anesthesia at a plastic surgery clinic in Gangnam, Seoul from January to September 2019.

He is also accused of conspiring to faking an acquaintance's medical record 9 times, handing over the personal information to the head of the plastic surgery clinic.

Initially, the prosecution summarily prosecuted a fine of 10 million won, but the court referred the case to a formal trial.
