1 Year on the Run: Hwang Hana Surrenders on Christmas Eve 2025
Namyang Dairy heiress Hwang Hana was arrested on Christmas Eve 2025 after a year-long evasion of drug investigations. She reportedly surrendered voluntarily.
A year-long game of hide-and-seek ended on Christmas Eve. Namyang Dairy heiress Hwang Hana, famously known as the ex-fiancée of former TVXQ member Park Yoochun, was arrested after evading a drug investigation for over 12 months.
Voluntary Surrender Amid Public Curiosity
According to reports from Koreaboo, Hwang voluntarily turned herself in on December 24, 2025 (KST). This move comes as a surprise to many, given her successful evasion of authorities for a full year. While initial reports focused on her extradition, it's been clarified that she chose to end her flight and face the ongoing investigation.
The Fallout of a Persistent Scandal
Hwang's history with drug-related offenses has made her a lightning rod for criticism in South Korea. After disappearing from the public eye in late 2024, her sudden reappearance on a major holiday has sparked intense debate. Observers are questioning the timing of her surrender and whether it's part of a legal strategy to secure a more lenient sentence.
