BTS member Suga, also known as Min Yoongi, recently penned a heartfelt apology to his fans after being involved in a drunk driving incident. On Weverse, Suga explained that he was returning home on his electric kickboard after drinking late at night. Currently serving in the South Korean military, Suga admitted to violating traffic laws.
He shared that while setting up his electric scooter near his house, he fell, and a nearby police officer conducted a breathalyzer test, resulting in the revocation of his license and a fine. Suga’s note read, “Hello. This is Suga. It is with a very heavy and apologetic heart that I have to come to you with such disappointment. After drinking at dinner last night, I rode home on an electric kickboard. I violated road traffic laws without realizing that I was not allowed to use an electric kickboard while drunk due to the simple thought that it was a short distance away.”
He continued, “While setting up my electric scooter at the front door of my house, I fell alone. A police officer was nearby, and as a result of a breathalyzer test, my license was revoked, and I was fined. Although no one was harmed or any facilities were damaged during this process, I bow my head in apology to everyone as it is my responsibility and there is no room for excuses.”
“I apologise to everyone who was hurt by my careless and wrong actions, and I will be more careful in my actions to avoid such incidents in the future,” concluded his note.
BTS’s agency, BigHit Music, also issued a statement, apologizing for the incident and ensuring that Suga will face appropriate disciplinary action as a social service worker. They emphasized their commitment to preventing such incidents in the future.
Suga used an electric scooter while wearing a helmet while returning home after drinking alcohol. After traveling about 500 meters, he fell while parking, and was given a ticket and license revocation as a result of a sobriety test by police officers who were nearby.
