 BTS Suga-Big Hit Official Apology for DUI of Electric Kickboards 'Inexcusable Mistakes' (Full Story)



Group BTS Suga apologized directly for the drunk driving incident of an electric kickboard.

Suga posted an apology on the fan community Weverse on the 7th, saying, `I feel very heavy and sorry to visit you with disappointment.'

He said "No one was harmed or damaged facilities, but it is my inexcusable responsibility, so I bow down and apologize to everyone."



According to the Yongsan Police Station in Seoul, Suga is suspected of riding an electric kickboard while drunk in the Yongsan-gu area on the 6th. Police found Suga, who had fallen alone while riding an electric kickboard, and while trying to help him, they smelled alcohol and handed him over to a nearby district.

As a result of the alcohol consumption test, sugar's blood alcohol level was more than 0.08%, which is equivalent to the cancellation of the license. Under the current Road Traffic Act, cars and personal mobile devices are required to cancel their licenses if they drive at a blood alcohol level of 0.08% or higher.



Accordingly, his agency Big Hit Music "Sugar used an electric kickboard while wearing a helmet while returning home under the influence of alcohol. After moving about 500 meters, he fell when parked, and a breathalyzer test through the police around him resulted in a fine and revocation of his license" he said.

The incident did not cause any casualties or property damage, and he returned home under police control""We apologize for the disappointment of many people due to the artist's inappropriate behavior." As a social service worker, I will be subject to any disposition from my workplace for causing social controversy," he said.



Suga is working as a social service worker after entering the Nonsan Training Center in South Chungcheong Province in March and receiving basic military training.

Next is the full text of Suga's writing.

Hello, I'm Suga.

I feel very heavy and sorry to come to you with disappointment.

After drinking at the dinner table last night, I got home on an electric kickboard. He violated the road traffic laws without realizing that he could not use an electric kickboard when he was drunk due to the comfortable idea of being close to him.

In the process of setting up an electric kickboard at the front door of the house, I fell alone, and there was a police officer around me, so I took a breath test and found that my license was revoked and a fine was imposed. There were no people or facilities damaged in this process, but I would like to bow down and apologize to everyone because it is my inexcusable responsibility.

I apologize to everyone who has been hurt by my careless and wrong behavior, and I will be more careful with my actions so that this does not happen in the future.
