T.O.P, also known as Choi Seung-hyun, was found unconscious at the Seoul District Office Division 4 on the 6th of June. He was taken to the ICU at the Ehwa University Mokdong Hospital.

It seemed that he was in that condition because he overdosed on the mental stability pills he was on. However, the police claimed T.O.P wasn't unconscious and was just in a deep sleep because of sleeping pills. Apparently he was 'helped' to walk into the hospital himself.

T.O.P's mom spoke to OSEN and said, "T.O.P is still unconscious but why did the police make a statement like that? He's not in good condition still so please refrain from making any statements that haven't been checked for".

Doctors held a briefing in a meeting room at the hospital and made announcements on T.O.P's condition. This helped to clarify statements made by T.O.P's family and the police.

The representing doctor said, "When T.O.P arrived at the hospital, he was held up by three people; one holding his upper body and two holding his lower body. He didn't react to small stimulations but he did react to stronger ones which means he was in deep sleep". He emphasized repeatedly that T.O.P was in a critical hypnoleptic state and it was different from what the police had announced in the first place.

It was a matter of life and death. Although T.O.P is responsible for having taken in marijuana, his life matters more and the police should have been more careful about the statements they made. The police was irresponsible and spread false information about the matter and hurt T.O.P's family.
