Man in 'Suwon Fentanyl Zombie' Video Tests Negative for Meth, Released

The man who appeared in the so-called "Suwon Fentanyl Zombie" video, which circulated widely online, has received a preliminary test result from the National Forensic Service indicating he is negative for methamphetamine.

The Suwon Seonbu Police Station announced today (June 24) that they have released the man in his 30s, who had been emergency-arrested on charges of violating the Narcotics Control Act.

The man, identified as A, was suspected of wandering around an apartment complex while under the influence of methamphetamine around 12:30 p.m. on June 21.

A video of A, showing him stumbling with his waist bent and arms hanging limp, spread online under titles such as "Suwon Fentanyl Zombie." Upon becoming aware of the footage, police emergency-arrested A at approximately 10:30 a.m. yesterday (June 23).

It was initially reported that A had tested positive for methamphetamine during a preliminary reagent test.

The police have decided to withhold the request for an arrest warrant and will continue to investigate the case while awaiting the results of a detailed analysis from the National Forensic Service, which is expected to take about a week.
