Immigration Bureau officials in Thailand have intensified their search for Hwang Hana, a South Korean socialite who is the subject of an Interpol blue notice. The 31-year-old woman, known for her high-profile connections, including being the ex-fiancée of former K-pop star Park Yoochun of TVXQ, is wanted in connection with drug-related offences.

 

Hwang Hana, who gained notoriety as the granddaughter of Namyang Dairy’s founder, was linked to a drug case in South Korea. A recent arrest of another South Korean individual, who confessed to purchasing drugs from Hwang, has reignited the investigation into her activities. Despite earlier accusations, Hwang had previously evaded legal consequences, leading to speculation about her family's influence.

 

Further complicating her situation, Hwang was accused of leveraging explicit videos to blackmail multiple victims. The footage allegedly depicted women involved in drug-induced nudity and sexual activities.

 

Her name has also surfaced in the infamous Burning Sun scandal, a major South Korean case involving prostitution, human trafficking, and bribery, which embroiled numerous celebrities and officials. Hwang was arrested in April 2019 for questioning in relation to drug offences but was subsequently released.

 

Interpol issued a blue notice for Hwang, suspecting her of continued drug involvement. Authorities in Thailand were alerted when she arrived at Don Mueang International Airport from Vietnam on March 13. She later sought passport renewal at the South Korean Embassy in Thailand, claiming her passport was lost.

 

Currently, Thai Immigration Bureau officials suspect Hwang is still in Thailand, as there is no record of her departure. In addition to cooperating with Interpol to extradite her, Thai authorities plan to charge her with overstaying her visa. 

 

The search remains ongoing, with officials urging anyone with information on Hwang’s whereabouts to come forward as they work to resolve this high-profile case.

So the headline is wrong, and she was not "found hiding in Thailand" at all.

Odd behavior - a fugitive from justice seeks services from the embassy of the country where her crimes were committed? So what happened to her there?

maybe they should put the same effort in looking for the red bull criminal.

What criminal activities was he involved in? 

 

He drunkenly ran over a policeman with his Ferrari, and paid a monetary compensation to his family. 

 

Yes, they tried a cover up which didn't work, and when the powers that be for reasons unknown wanted to make an example of him, he left the country.

 

I believe the interpol don't just act without reviewing related facts about those notices.

be careful about criticising headlines - last time I did it, I got a very stern warning for doing so.

not drunk, high on drugs - but that's ok you can justify his actions if you like - but doesn't change the facts.

Interpol does not review cases brought to them.

That's why a government can easily get a red notice for a dissident who fled the country: they just accuse him of terrorism
