BTS Suga apologizes for the 2nd round of drunk driving → Public support for the entertainment industry will be sent to the 檢 this week

Aug 26, 2024

Group BTS Suga issued a second apology for drunk driving.

Suga posted a handwritten apology on the fan community Weverse on the 25th. He "I would like to express my apologies again with shame. I deeply apologize for the disappointment and hurt of my fans and everyone who loves me for the wrong behavior."

Suga corrected the contents of the first apology, which was suspected of reducing the case, saying, `I have forgotten my responsibility to repay you with actions worthy of the love I received. He made the mistake of driving to India on an electric scooter after drinking on the night of 6 August. I'm sorry for much confusion with the first apology I hastily posted on the 7th. I should have thought and thought more carefully, but I couldn't," he said.

I will try not to do wrong again and live with repentance. I will be criticized and reprimanded as well as future dispositions. Once again, I sincerely apologize for causing a social stir and disappointing many people."

On the afternoon of the 6th, Suga was caught by police while driving an electric scooter while intoxicated near his home in Hannam-dong, Yongsan-gu, Seoul. At that time, the blood alcohol concentration was 0.227%, significantly higher than the license revocation standard (0.08% or more). In response, Suga appeared at the police on the 23rd and was questioned for more than three hours, and bowed his head, saying, `I am deeply remorseful and regretful.'

As a result, there are voices of support for Suga in the entertainment industry.

Psy sang 'THAT THAT' with Suga as the ending song at the 'Hummum Show 2024' held at the World Cup Stadium in Suwon, Gyeonggi Province on the 25th. "I want to say thank you to SUGA for making this song together."."

Writer Lee Min-jin, a fan of BTS 'Pachinko', expressed his support by adding a purple heart, the symbol of ARMY (BTS fan club), along with a photo of Suga.

Foreign media also expressed concern about the overheating of the Sugar crisis. French weekly Paris Match magazine `Sugar has become an excessive target of the Korean media over the past few weeks. South Korea forces a `flawless star'", referring to Lee Sun-kyun, who died in December last year, worried about an excessive witch hunt.

Of course, the voice of criticism against Suga is still alive. Some fans held withdrawal protests and filed petitions with the Military Manpower Administration and the police to investigate Suga. Rapper Biffrey, who was controversial for degrading his BTS, is also criticized for posting a photo of a sign reading 'Sugar' on his account.

In the meantime, the police plan to send Suga to the prosecution as early as this week on charges of drunk driving. The police investigated the drunk driving route, circumstances, and alcohol consumption in the suspect's investigation, and since Suga admitted all charges, it is expected to quickly wrap up the case without the need for a second suspect investigation.
