Actor Yoo Ah In's film 'Hi.5', which faced multiple delays due to his drug scandal, is scheduled for release this June. The film, directed by Kang Hyoung Chul, revolves around five individuals who acquire superpowers and get caught up in a conflict with those trying to exploit them. The movie features a strong ensemble cast, including Yoo Ah In, Lee Jae In, Ahn Jae Hong, Ra Mi Ran, and Kim Hee Won.
Despite initial postponements, the decision to release 'Hi.5' this June was influenced by the success of Yoo Ah In's recent projects, 'Goodbye Earth' and 'The Match'. Yoo Ah In's involvement in the promotional activities for 'Hi.5' remains uncertain, following a deliberate strategy to minimize his presence during 'The Match' promotions.
Yoo Ah In was given a suspended sentence in February 2024 as a result of his drug scandal, which saw him spend five months in detention. The prosecution has appealed the ruling, awaiting a final verdict from the Supreme Court.
