Yes, I'd heard that (about Daniel Dae Kim)! Designate a sober driver, people!

It's somewhat reassuring to know that, although a DUI-related curse does seem to have befallen several castmembers, the actor who played Mr. Eko (a character I loved!) is reported to have begged off the show because he disliked the isolation of living in Hawaii. Yeah -- living in Hawaii on an television actor's salary does sound pretty rough ;-)
