'Lost' actor in court for DUI

Advertiser Staff

"Lost" actor Daniel Dae Kim is scheduled to make his initial court appearance this morning at Honolulu District Court in connection with his arrest last month on drunken-driving charges.

Kim, who plays Jin-Soo Kwon on ABC's hit TV series, is the third cast member of the show to be picked up for alleged DUI.

He was stopped by a police officer who saw him driving "erratically" at about 2:30 a.m. Oct. 25 on South King Street. Police said he had a blood-alcohol concentration of 0.168, more than twice the 0.08 percent legal limit.

The other "Lost" actors who have gotten into trouble with drunken-driving charges on O'ahu are former cast members Michelle Rodriguez and Cynthia Watros, who both pleaded guilty.

In addition to work on several TV series before "Lost," Kim had small roles in the movies "Spider-Man 2," "The Hulk" and "Crash."
