Several celebrities have been arrested for drug use over the weekend.

Actor Kim Sung-min (36) was nabbed at his apartment in Yeoksam-dong, Seoul on Friday for possession of methamphetamines. He is also suspected of smuggling them in from overseas.

Kim has recently been enjoying growing popularity as a cast member of the popular reality show "Happy Sunday".

Rapper Crown J was also charged for marijuana possession, police said Sunday. The 31-year-old reportedly smoked marijuana while staying in Atlanta, U.S. to work on his new album and music video since May. He is reported to have told police that it was the first time he had used the drug and he smoked it "only once or twice".

Crown J rose to prominence with MBC reality show "Just Married", where he was paired with singer Seo In-young. Police are investigating others close to the rapper for the same offence.
