Talent Choi Se-ho, who has suspended activities due to suspicions regarding relationships with gang members, is expected to return in the new season of 'Driver.' Recently, a representative from the Netflix variety show 'Driver' stated to Korean media, 'All cast and production staff are enthusiastically preparing for the new season. Choi Se-ho is also scheduled to join the next season, continuing from the previous one.' 'Driver' is a variety show that incorporates the 'joys and sorrows of life' assembled by the top 99% of talents without screws. Park In-seok, who previously led KBS 2TV's variety 'Hong Kim Dong Jung,' is in charge of main direction, with Kim Suk, Hong Jin-kyung, Choi Se-ho, Choo Woo-jae, and 2PM's Wooyoung participating in the show. So far, 'Driver' has showcased its first season 'Driver: Searching for the Lost Screw,' followed by season 2 'Driver: Searching for the Lost Handle,' and season 3 'Driver: Driver Disassembly Show,' with season 4 on the way. Amid this, Choi Se-ho, who had declared a suspension of activities, will also appear in season 4. Previously, a net user raised suspicions about his relationship with gang members, claiming that Choi Se-ho was close to a gang member from the Gyeongsangnam-do region and received expensive gifts while promoting the individual's business. Initially, Choi Se-ho's side denied the claims, stating, 'Due to meeting many people through various events and broadcasting activities, we only became acquainted with a simple acquaintance, and there are no inappropriate relationships or gifts with compensation.' However, after a series of exposure predictions, he apologized and suspended his activities. Nevertheless, he clarified that they will continue to take strong legal action against malicious comments that are factually incorrect.
