The statement read, “Sik-K did not go to the Yongsan Police Station in Seoul under the influence. His behaviour while attending the police was not due to taking drugs but was due to delirium after surgery.”

As per the statement, Sik-K underwent surgery under general anaesthesia for treatment of a shoulder rotator cuff injury sustained while serving in the military. He was prescribed sleeping pills until he was discharged from the hospital on January 18 this year. It added that this caused his delirium symptoms on January 19 morning, which led him to leave home.

Sik-K became famous after Mnet’s hip-hop survival program Show Me the Money Season 4. On July 20, 2016, the rapper released his first EP, Flip. The rapper established his own label, KC, in 2023 after exiting H1GHR MUSIC. Sik-K, whose real name is Kwon Min-sik, enlisted in the army for his mandatory military enlistment on June 29, 2020.
