The way he’d been singled out, though, investigated months after the last time he’d smoked, made him suspect there was some shady ery going on behind the scenes. Korean law and politics being what it was, he’d been told not to fight it, and so he hadn’t. He had fudged a bit when he told his side of the story to the prosecutors, but Hyun Suk had told him to play dumb. He hadn’t been sure what he’d meant by ‘playing dumb’, so Seunghyun told him to pretend he was him. That had made Jiyong laugh, and then promptly break down into tears.
But it had worked, and due to lack of evidence he’d been let off with nothing more than a warning. And, of course, this ing scandal. This was almost worse than actually being indicted.
