"Lost" DUI Curse -- Daniel Dae Kim Busted!

TMZ has learned Daniel Dae Kim, who stars as Jin-Soo Kwon on "Lost," was popped by Honolulu PD early Thursday morning on suspicion of drunken driving. Jin and juice!

The Honolulu Advertiser reports Kim was arrested around 3:00 AM, wearing a polo shirt and khaki shorts. Gary Collins, is that you?! Kim was released about two hours later, seen in video from KHON2TV trying to hide his face as he left. Details of the arrest were not immediately available.


Kim is the fourth member of the cast of "Lost" to be arrested. Michelle Rodriguez and Cynthia Watros were arrested for DUI in December 2005, when police spotted their vehicles weaving along a local road. Both pleaded guilty, and were lost from the show soon after. In September of 2006, Adewale Akinnuoye-Agbaje was arrested and accused of disobeying a police officer and driving without a license. Those charges were later dropped -- and then he was dropped from the show as his character was killed off by a crazy smoke monster.

79. "70. Note to self: when in Hawaii, do NOT drink and drive!
Posted at 8:00AM on Oct 26th 2007 by me"

Note to #70: DON'T DRINK AND DRIVE ANYWHERE!

Good grief, what a juvenile comment.

80. Here's the 411 on Hawaii. It's called Island Fever, Bro!, as in get me off this beautiful (duriing the day, but one horse, overpriced island at night) tiny island, and back into La-La Land. It's a bitch to drive around Honolulu/Oahu during the day when y'all are sober. Night-time and drunky, forget about it. But really, what's driving (sorry) this cast to drink? Did they all steal a rock from Pele's volcano on their first day or something!

Mahalo y'all

81. Technology has made us slaves to the public media.

For all of you who have never had the uncommon sense to drive yourself home after a night at the pub, a muslim heaven awaits. The rest of us have our guilty consciences,increased insurance rates, and internet worthy news outlets to dislpay our human faults.

Mistakes, eh? We are human.

It's nice, and humbling, to see Mr. Kim asking for our forgiveness.

Be careful driving, young man,

82. My goodness. I would have thought that the castaways would have finished off the liquor scavenged from the wreckage of the plane's galley by now.

They should just change the name of the show from "Lost" to "Sloshed" & be done with it.
