Gaku Akio Gaku Akio took Ecstasy and caused a death. He is currently detained. He didn't fear the harm of drugs to his body, but he couldn't withstand continuous interrogations. Due to the great pressure, he was hospitalized for a perforated stomach, but he is now out of danger. The Japanese "Friday" weekly magazine reported on August 20 that he had been addicted to drugs for a long time and once took a hotel girl to the United States to join in drug-fueled orgies. Before turning herself in, Noriko Sakai cut her hair short, thinking it would prevent detection of drug traces, but she was still tested positive. The Japanese "Friday" weekly magazine published on August 20 pointed out that Gaku Akio seemed to have been using drugs for many years. An anonymous Ginza hostess revealed that he once took another hostess to the United States for drug-fueled orgies, which almost resulted in a death at that time. Unexpectedly, he didn't know how to restrain himself, eventually causing trouble and ruining his future. Gaku Akio starred in a new movie in May 2009, playing a drug dealer. There were also scenes where he abandoned an addicted woman and fled, much like a replica of real life, making it seem especially ironic. Noriko Sakai's involvement with drugs led to all her endorsed advertisements being withdrawn, including Toyota recreational vehicles, "Nou-Shin" headache medicine, and "Itochu Corporation" which collaborated with her personal clothing brand "PPrikorino". The total compensation claimed exceeded 200 million yen (about 70 million Taiwan dollars), a heavy price to pay. Noriko Sakai's apartment in Tokyo's Minami-Aoyama is worth about 55 million Taiwan dollars, with still 7 million Taiwan dollars of mortgage left unpaid. Originally, without income, even if she split the payment of the breach of contract fee with her agency, she would have to sell her house to pay off the debt. On August 20, the Japanese police stated that during her escape, she cut her hair by 20 centimeters to try to mislead the drug test results, but the hair analysis results showed a positive reaction to drugs, and her drug user identity was still exposed.
