In the Lost drama universe, he is the one to follow the others’ lives. In real life, he is followed by the police, like any other of us. Actor Daniel Dae Kim, who walks in tough guy Jin-Soo Kwon’s shoes in ABC’s famous series was arrested in the small hours on Thursday on DUI charges.

After staying 2 hours in the police custody at the Honolulu Police station, Kim was released on a $500 bail at about 5 a.m. His blood-alcohol concentration was found twice as high as the legal limit of .08, his being of .168. He is due to appear in court on November 23 at the Honolulu District Court.

Officers said that the South-Korean actor was respectful and created no problems during his two-hour stay at the police.

It seems that there is some epidemic that hounds the Lost crew, Kim being the forth actor of the cast to be arrested due to traffic violations in Hawaii. Michelle Rodriguez (known as Ana Lucia in the series) and Cynthia Watros (as Libby) speeded over he legal limit in 2005, the former receiving a five-day jail sentence and a $357 fine. The later had a 90-day suspension of her driving license and paid $312 in fines.

Mr. Eko (Adewale Akinnuoye-Agbaje) got arrested the last year for disobeying a traffic officer and driving without a license, but the charges were later withdrawn.
