On the 18th, Jang Won-sam expressed his position in a long text saying, `I sincerely bow down and apologize for delivering bad news.'
Jang Won-sam "It is correct that he caused a drunk driving contact accident as reported. There is no excuse. I am truly sorry to disappoint you. I'm so sorry to have caused the accident yesterday, my family, acquaintances, fans, and the broadcasting staff, directors, players, fans, sponsors, and advertisers all to have caused damage and concern by the fault of my individual," he apologized.
He said "I tried to post a quick apology because of my disappointment to many people and my own mistakes and regrets, but I didn't know how to do it alone because I only worked out all my life, and I was actually very scared. Of course, I acknowledged it, and I tried to apologize, but 'I'm sorry..' I'm also sorry that I couldn't apologize right away because I didn't avoid trying to fix everything because it was seen as irresponsible," he added.
Also, in media reports and personal social media, many people are curious about exactly what happened, so I will tell you without hiding it. After a meeting with acquaintances on the day before the accident on August 16, he started a late drinking party in Changwon. I didn't take my car as usual because I was drinking. I sat in the first meat restaurant in Changwon, and I sat in the second hangover soup restaurant. Before calling the third taxi, I had another beer with my acquaintance at the convenience store. I arrived home by taxi at 3:37. All of the contents have payment details, so if anyone wants proof, I will share them. I had a meeting in Busan on the day of the incident, so I brought my car out of my house around 12 o'clock. "I didn't drink and drink on the day of the accident, but if I had a hangover, I should have called a taxi or used public transportation not to drive with my companions, but I took the wheel, got into an accident, got into a drunk driving test by passing police, and got into a drunk driving accident."
Jang Won-sam apologized again, saying, `I sincerely apologize to those who caused me and the accident with my complacent thoughts and actions, and once again I sincerely apologize to the fans, broadcasting officials, directors, players, sponsors, and advertisers for the disappointment and disruption caused by me.'
Jang Won-sam also said, "Thanks to so many people from his career to the present, Hyundai, Heroes, Samsung, LG, and Lotte, Jang Won-sam was present, and he was able to endure the difficult times well. I'm so sorry that I hurt and disappointed everyone with my fault, and I'm just so disappointed in myself. Once again, I sincerely bow down and apologize to all the members of the 'strongest baseball' team and fans who helped them receive a lot of attention and love even after retirement. It's right to take responsibility through voluntary evacuation, and I think it's wrong to notify that I'll volunteer for my fault, so I'll visit the producer and director in person after explaining the situation, and once again explain the situation and fulfill my responsibilities", he explained.
Finally, "I really attached myself, and thank you for allowing me to leave many memories as Jang Won-sam, not as a player, so I'm more sorry, and I should have become Jang Won-sam, who can entertain everyone in more ways, but I bow down to the customer and sincerely apologize for disappointing him, and I'm sorry." It is said that there will be a police investigation in the car owner. I will admit my mistake and reflect on it without any lies. I am truly sorry," he apologized once again.
According to the police earlier, Jang Won-sam hit a vehicle behind him while reversing in the first lane of a left turn on a road in Gwangan-dong, Suyeong-gu, Busan, at around 1 p.m. on the 17th. Police were dispatched to measure Jang Won-sam's blood alcohol level, and the level of driver's license cancellation (more than 0.08%) was reported.
The police sent Jang Won-sam home for now because the accident was minor, and will investigate him later and take care of him.
