Jung Da Eun has revealed new testimony that she did drugs with Monsta X Wonho.
In an exclusive interview with Dispatch, Jung Da Eun revealed that in October 2013, her and Wonho smoked marijuana in the living room while a man 'Cho', a Burning Sun MD, was in the bedroom. Cho was a general director and MD at Club 'Burning Sun' and is currently serving at the Seoul Detention Center for abusing marijuana, ecstasy, and Ketamine.
Jung Dae Eun revealed a conversation she had with Cho before she arrived home as follows:
[October 2013 - In a phone call with Mr. Cho]
Cho: "Can you lend me your belt?"
JDE: "It's at my apartment in the closet if you want to borrow it."
Cho: "Where are you"
JDE: "I'm at a cafe with a friend. My password is XXX. You can find in the closet."
Cho then went to Jung Da Eun's house and used the password to get into the apartment. While searching the closet for the belt, the front door opened and Jung Dae Eun and Wonho came into the apartment.
Jung Da Eun and Wonho had met up at a cafe near their Yeoksam-dong house. When Cho called her, Wonho had asked her about it and she stated that "the call was from a close hyung". While they were chatting, Wonho pulled out a zipper bag filled with marijuana out of his pocket .
Wonho: "Have you ever had this"
JDE: Where did you get it?"
That's when they headed home and smoked the marijuana in the living room unaware that Cho was in the house. Cho came out of the room after he smelled the marijuana. This was their conversation:
Cho: What are doing?
JDE: "Pretend you didn't see anything"
Cho: "Is that marijuana" Who's he?
JDE: "That's Ho-suk. He's a trainee. Just pretend you didn't see anything."
Cho agreed and left the house.
Dispatch also met up with Cho who was serving prison time at a Seoul Detention Center. Cho remembered what happened six years ago and confirmed that Wonho and Jung Dae Eun smoked marijuana that day.
According to Dispatch, the police conducted an internal investigation in the case originally. Police obtained matching witness accounts from Jung Dae Eun and Cho. Police also met with Wonho at the end of September after Monsta X returned from their concert in Germany and conducted a hair follicle test on Wonho.
As Wonho's marijuana case is still ongoing, Dispatch was not able to obtain the drug test results. According to Dispatch, there's a chance Wonho will be summoned for further investigations depending on the results.
