SEOUL, April 9 (Yonhap) -- Comedian Lee Jin-ho, 40, has been hospitalized in an intensive care unit after suffering a brain hemorrhage, his agency said Thursday.

 

SM C&C said Lee is currently receiving treatment in the ICU but is not in life-threatening condition.

 

Lee has been on hiatus following allegations of illegal gambling and drunk driving.

 

He was referred without detention to the Seoul Central District Prosecutors Office in September last year on charges of participating in illegal online gambling multiple times.

 

In the same month, he was also sent to prosecutors on charges of drunk driving after allegedly driving about 100 kilometers from Incheon to his home in Yangpyeong County, Gyeonggi Province, while intoxicated.
