According to legal sources, the Seoul Mapo Police executed an arrest warrant against rapper Kim Gam Jeon (also known as Kim Sang Min)earlier this week after investigating him for allegedly violating the Act on the Control of Narcotics through marijuana use. The Seoul Western District Court issued an official arrest warrant after an interrogation, citing concerns that Kim could flee or destroy evidence.

The arrest is made all the more shocking given that Kim Gam Jeon was already on probation for a nearly identical offense. Back in May 2024, he was accused of smoking marijuana with an associate in a parking lot in downtown Seoul.

Kim was indicted over the incident and sentenced to eight months in prison late that year, though the sentence was eventually reduced to a suspended term after an appeal. Kim Gam Jeon signed with Swings’ hip-hop label Indigo Music back in 2022.
