Choi Si-won from boy band Super Junior was appointed as the advisor at the Korea Association Against Drug Abuse, the agency announced Thursday.

Choi will participate in the associationโ€™s future events and promotions to provide information about the side effects of illegal drugs.

โ€œCelebrities and renowned personalities getting caught using illegal drugs [โ€ฆ] may result in teenagers copying such actions, which is a problem in our society,โ€ Choi Phil-yeo, the Chairman of the Korea Association Against Drug Abuse, said Thursday in a press release.

โ€œIโ€™m glad that Choi Si-won, a righteous and upright entertainer, now sits at the forefront of the battle against illegal drugs.โ€
