In a statement issued after BTS’ Suga received a fine and lost his license to drive an electric scooter, the idol revealed that he was saddened by what happened.
After receiving a fine and losing his license to drive an electric kickboard (also known as an electric scooter) after being charged by the Yongsan Police Station in South Korea for violating Traffic Laws, Sucksfrom BTS, issued a public apology.
This is because, on the night of last Tuesday, the 6th, the idol was approached by a police officer when he was found lying down after driving the vehicle drunk. In the South Korean country, driving an electric scooter under the influence of alcohol is considered a crime since it can cause accidents, although in the case of Sucksno one was injured and no property was damaged.
About the incident, Sucks he wrote:
Hello, this is Suga.
I am very sad and apologize for bringing you disappointing news.
After drinking at a dinner party last night, I rode an electric scooter home. I violated the Traffic Law due to my complacent thinking that it was a short distance and my failure to recognize that using an electric scooter while intoxicated was prohibited. I crashed while parking the scooter in front of my house, and the nearby police officer conducted a breathalyzer test, resulting in the revocation of my license and a fine. Although there were no casualties or damaged facilities in this process, it is entirely my responsibility without any excuse, and I sincerely apologize to everyone.
I apologize to anyone who felt hurt by my careless and wrong actions, and I will be more careful in my actions in the future to prevent such incidents from occurring again.”
In addition to Sucksthe agency responsible for managing the idol’s career, BIGHIT MUSIC, also issued a statement, where it revealed that in addition to the judicial punishment, the idol, who is currently serving his military enlistment as a social service agent, will also be penalized by the army.
Hello,
this is BIGHIT MUSIC.We apologize for BTS member Suga’s electric scooter accident.
On the evening of August 6 (Tuesday), Suga was on his way home in a drunken state, riding an electric scooter and wearing a helmet. He crashed while parking after moving about 500 meters, and the police officer who was nearby gave him a breathalyzer test, resulting in a fine and the revocation of his license. No one was injured, and no property damage occurred due to the incident, and he was taken home into police custody.
We apologize for the disappointment caused by our artist’s inappropriate behavior. As a public servant, he will receive appropriate disciplinary action from his workplace for causing a public disturbance.
We will take more care to prevent such incidents from occurring in the future.
Thanks.”
