Jaycee Chan, son of movie star Jackie Chan, began the process of rehabilitating his image on Saturday as he appeared in public for the first time following a six-month jail sentence on drug charges and apologised for his actions.
This 32-year-old entertainer told reporters in Beijing that as a public figure, this incident has had a negative impact on society, disappointed people who supported me, and caused losses for people who have worked with me,” said Chan, who extended a deep bow of apology before and after his remarks.
Chan was detained in August after he tested positive for marijuana and police found 100 grams of the drug in his Beijing home. He was formally charged in December with “the crime of sheltering others to take drugs.”
