Kung fu movie star Jackie Chan says he `` takes responsibility '' for the drug charges laid against his son , 32-year-old Jaycee Chan , in Beijing . Police detained the junior Chan , who is originally from Hong Kong and also an actor , as well as Kai Ko , a 23-year-old Taiwanese actor , during a raid on August 14 in Dongcheng district , Beijing , state media said . Both men tested positive for marijuana . Jackie Chan publicly addressed the incident for the first time on Wednesday evening , through messages posted on his account on Weibo , a Chinese microblogging platform . The star of `` Rush Hour '' wrote that he felt `` extremely furious '' and `` extremely shocked '' at the news of his son 's drug woes , adding that Jaycee 's mother is `` heartbroken . '' `` I hope that young people will see Jaycee as a cautionary tale and stay away from drugs , '' wrote Chan , who once campaigned against drug use and was named an anti-drugs ambassador in China in 2009 . `` I failed to teach my son and I should also bear responsibility . Jaycee and I deeply bow in apology to society , '' concluded Chan on his Weibo , which has more than 23 million followers . 'Really sorry ' After detaining the young actors , police searched Jaycee Chan 's apartment and found more than 100 grams of marijuana . He was also accused of `` hosting others to take drugs , '' the state-run China Daily said . He could face three years in jail under Chinese law . State broadcaster CCTV aired footage of Chan , his face blurred , showing police where the drugs were hidden at his home , while Ko was shown making a tearful apology . `` I very much regret what happened . I 'm very sorry to those who support me , like me or even know me personally , '' he said . `` I just want to tell them I 'm really sorry . I 've set the worst example , which had the most terrible influence . And this is a huge mistake . '' Celebrity targets . The two actors are being seen as the targets of the capital 's latest anti-drugs campaign , which has snared more than 7,000 people for using drugs since January , a 72 % year-on-year increase , according to China Daily . Celebrities are increasingly in the spotlight , with a number of high-profile arrests over drug-related incidents in recent months , including popular movie actor Zhang Mo and singer Li Daimo , who was sentenced to nine months in jail for hosting a crystal meth party at his home , according to the China Daily .
