Rapper Sik-K (real name Kwon Min-sik), who turned himself in after taking drugs and was sentenced to probation in the first trial, admitted all of his charges.

The 2-1 Criminal Department (appeal) (B) of the Seoul Western District Court held its first trial date on the 2nd on the charges of violating the law on drug management (cannabis) of Sik-K. Criminal 7 alone of the Seoul Western District Court, which was previously the first trial court, sentenced Sik-K to 10 months in prison and two years of probation in May 2025 and ordered him to take 40 hours of drug addiction prevention education and probation. However, the prosecution filed an appeal against this.

On this day, Sik-K appeared in court with his lawyer wearing a mask and glasses while wearing a suit and tied hair. Sik-K revealed that his job is to be a singer.

Sik-K said he was aware of the prosecution's unfair appeal for sentencing, adding, "I want to dismiss the appeal." He admitted all the charges, acknowledged the investigation of evidence, and acknowledged that he had completed the interrogation of the defendant.

The prosecution asked for the same sentence as in the first trial.

Sik-K was handed over to Yongsan Police Station in January 2024 after he turned himself in to a police officer who worked near the Seoul Regional Veterans Affairs Office in Yongsan-gu, Seoul. The Seoul Western District Prosecutors' Office indicted Sik-K without detention on June 17, 2024.

Afterwards, the prosecution asked the court to sentence Sik-K to three and a half years in prison through a final trial and said, "In the case of the defendant, he is a famous rapper who is widely known to the public and has a lot of influence on teenagers, and the nature of the crime is not good, such as recidivism during the probation period for the same drug crimes in the past."

At the time, lawyer Sik K said, "The investigation began by turning himself in for the crime itself from the investigation stage," adding, "Please consider the fact that we cooperated with the investigation without arguing about the facts at the investigation stage."

Sik-K then said, "I don't think I've ever been as ashamed as I am now," and added, "If you give me a chance to repay my hurt family and company family, I will really repent and live my life in the future."

Later in the sentence, the first trial court said, "The number of crimes is high, and ketamine and ecstasy were administered as well as hemp, and there is an homogeneous history. He said, "As a famous singer, he has no social influence," adding, "The defendant deeply regrets his wrongdoing, vows not to repeat it again, and has a clear social bond."

At the 23rd Korean Popular Music Awards announced in February, Sik-K won two awards, including the best rap & hip-hop album with "K-FLIP+" and the best rap & hip-hop song with the title song "LOV3" (Feat. Bryan Chase & Okasian). Sick K also won five awards at the "Korea Hip Hop Awards 2026", including Artist of the Year, Hip Hop Album of the Year, Label of the Year, Hip Hop Track of the Year, and Collaboration of the Year.
