The chief executive of a South Korean cosmetics company is in trouble with authorities for overseas gambling.

Jeong Un-ho was arrested on Tuesday on charges of gambling in illegal poolrooms between 2012 and 2015 in several Asian countries, including the Philippines and Macau, Yonhap News reported.

The entire operation involved some 10 billion won ($8.57 million), prosecutors said.

According to Judge Lee Seung-kyu, “There are ample evidence and reasons for putting him under detention,” prompting Jeong to admit to the charges.
