Comedian Lee Jin-ho has been hospitalized in an intensive care unit after collapsing from a brain hemorrhage, his agency said.

SM C&C said on the 9th that Lee is receiving treatment in the ICU and that his condition is not life-threatening.

Lee has suspended activities since last year amid allegations of illegal gambling and drunk driving.

He was sent to the Seoul Central District Prosecutors Office without detention in September last year on allegations he repeatedly gambled using illegal online gambling sites.

That same month, he was also referred to prosecutors on suspicion of driving under the influence for about 100 kilometers from Incheon to his home in Yangpyeong County, Gyeonggi Province, in violation of the Road Traffic Act.
