  • The photos, shared by a fashion brand representative on Instagram, show the two in close contact, including a kiss on the cheek, sparking online discussion.
  • Yoo Ah-in is reportedly preparing for a comeback with a role in a new film, which would be his first major project since his drug conviction.

Intimate photos of South Korean actor Yoo Ah-in, who is currently on probation for drug use, have been leaked online, causing a stir among fans and the public. The images, shared by the representative of the fashion brand VEAK on his personal Instagram, show Yoo and the representative in very close proximity, with one photo appearing to capture a kiss on the cheek.

Yoo Ah-in was sentenced to one year in prison, suspended for two years, and fined 2 million Korean won (approximately $1,500) last July for habitually using multiple anesthetic drugs and smoking marijuana. He recently attended a film premiere, leading to speculation about a potential comeback.

Reports suggest Yoo is slated to star in "The Thirst," a new film by "Exhuma" director Jang Jae-hyun. The movie, inspired by Bram Stoker's "Dracula," would cast Yoo as a vampire hunter. This project, expected to begin filming in October, would mark his return to the big screen after nearly three years.
