BTS’ Suga Apologizes After Receiving A DUI | Billboard News

[@Dirsa02]

New CCTV footage of yoongi issue... He is innocent.. He did no wrong..

[@rebekah1362]

For crying out loud, the dude was 500 meters from his house and used the sidewalk. He was going slowly and actually passed the police (who ignored him) as they walked the same sidewalk. They only came to him because when he parked infront of his house he stumbled and fell. The CCTV video shows this clearly. S.Korea is notorious around the globe for its huge drinking culture. It's like the proverbial pot calling the kettled black. It's ridiculous. And everyone with sense knows if he weren't a member of BTS no one would have ever found out.

[@JK-tq7bi]

Even worse, the sidewalk? Electric kickboards, bicycles and other motorized vehicles can't be used in sidewalks. You are trying to protect the impossible. HE BROKE THE LAW! Period, end of the story.

[@lss8713]

@@DearlyBeloved652That’s kind of the problem though. The Korean public don’t view him a being honest about it because the company explicitly called the vehicle he was riding an electric kick board instead of an electric scooter, which are legally classified differently. By calling it a kick board and then being caught on CCTV actually riding the vehicle (thereby making it a scooter), people are interpreting the situation as an effort to minimize the seriousness of his actions. They don’t like how the situation was handled precisely because they view it as dishonest.

My late grandpa used to drink alcohol like water, then ride his bicycle home. Surprisingly he was fine all the way to home. Just like Suga he used to fall in front of our home, each and everyday🤷‍♂ My point is: Most common people do this, but this is being hyped up because he is a celebrity, a BTS member who rarely have any scandal's. Lets be honest, celebrity have done worst than drinking and driving an scooter or kickboard or whatever. One more point; Kmedia is saying scooter, while Hybe says kickboard. I would rather believe Hybe, than media outlets who do anything for views.

[@Super_Chamchi]

This is the first time I learned about riding an E-scooter after alcohol consumption is illegal. I wonder if my country has the same law. He was unlucky to fall in front of his own house and a cop was nearby. He owns up to his mistake so leave him alone.

[@irisouyart]

Well in some countries riding a bicycle while being intoxicated is illegal too. Knowing that an e-scooter can go even faster than a bicycle, I am not surprised. But it is true that many people are unaware of these facts.

[@현쓰-b6n]

Don't they know that drunk driving can kill someone? A drunk driver is someone who takes another person's life lightly! Please, stop protecting that liar!

[@irisouyart]

@@현쓰-b6n Well yes the chances of killing someone drunk-DRIVING are extremely high, but killing somebody drunk-RIDING a bicycle or an e-scooter are slim. Injuring someone is probable, killing them less likely. The damage made by a car will exponentially be higher than the damage a bicycle or an e-scooter can do. Basically the bigger and faster the vehicle the more dangerous it is to operate. That is why many people do not think that drunk riding an e-scooter or a bicycle is illegal, because the risk of damage is way lower than driving a car. And about the “stop protecting that liar”: there is no protection… he has been caught, punished by the law the same way as any citizen would and he has admitted to his mistake. There is not much more he can do and trying to push the narrative that he deserves a higher punishment is simply hateful speech. His offense IS NOT at the same level as drunk driving a car; that is a fact.

However, Suga is human like everyone else and made a mistake. The guy got his punishment! He paid fine, got his license cancelled and he officially apologized as well as his agency! But now he is in every Korean media outlet and is being cyber bullied and crucified by Korean netizens and K-Armys! They say he is a disappointment, his reputation is forever destroyed, his career is over, that he can never come back, that he must leave the group, that it’s attempted murder, that he is a criminal and must go to jail, that he must disappear from TV and it’s goodbye to BTS!! His career is in danger. Korea put so much pressure on idols to be perfect all the time. Korean netizens have a long history of bullying and harrass idols to the extent that they committed suicide. Will they be happy and satisfied if Suga did that too? Koreans are so unforgiving and judgemental, but no one is perfect. It’s a very toxic and superficial society with high suicide rate. The majority of Armys are millions of International Armys who are more open minded! For us this whole thing is crazy because it’s not that big of a deal.

The Korean court acknowledged that Hive's data was fabricated. You overseas ARMYs do not understand the whole situation as much as the Korean people.

He spoke about this right after it happened and apologized. He learned his lesson so drop it already

[@Zor99x-os9mj]

The comments here are going crazy. After Suga and HYBE posted an apology, the CCTV footage was released on the news channel. So, everything in the apology was found to be false. DUI is a crime that can kill someone else even if there is no immediate accident. And most of all, Koreans are now angry because of their lies. You should watch Suga's CCTV footage, which was released on a news channel, which is running with other cars on a 10-lane road due to the level of driver's license cancellation. He was found on the road, not in a parking lot, and a passerby called the police because of the smell of alcohol. Don't make fun of Korea and its legal system. And he is serving in the military even though he commute comfortably unlike other members who are having a hard time in the military. So he should have been more careful about his actions. also they should have apologized truthfully without making excuses and without any lies. This is not how BTS is, which I have liked so far. I am very disappointed right now.

[@MinaHarami]

First of all, Suga didn't tell any lie, you probably didn't read his post! Second, Suga was riding a scooter, not a battle tank! He didn't kill anyone, he didn't hurt anyone or anything! So don't act like he killed a hundred people with a tank and didn't accept his responsibility! suga was fined and his license was taken away and he apologized! He didn't tell any lie in his post, he clearly said that he rode an electric scooter and went home. In the CCTV, he is riding a scooter that is not truck or some thing else

[@MinaHarami]

And I have a question, there is no sign of Suga's arrest in the CCTV, what proof do you use to say that he was arrested in the road, because even the police did not say such a thing, where exactly did you get this?

[@Zor99x-os9mj]

@user-ys6zp9dg6j You are making Koreans fools yourself. Are you saying that there's nothing wrong with riding a scooter because it's not a truck even if drunk enough to lie down on the road,? Can't you see the other cars running fast next to Suga? Even babies know that riding a bicycle while drunk is dangerous. And even though the police who took the breathalyzer said it was a scooter, they reduced it to a kickboard and issued a statement. And also Suga was found on the road, not in the parking lot. Take a look at HYBE's statement a few hours ago after CCTV was released. I think additional CCTV will be released soon because of fans like you who shield Suga with ignorance. And I can definitely see that your favorite BTS is clearly different from my favorite BTS.

[@crystalsnow1138]

You have admit South Korea does have a weird legal system. There are people walking around free who did much worse than what Suga did.

[@jo_m9715]

@@crystalsnow1138 Is it a strange legal system to ask people not to drink and drive because it can harm people? In Korea, you can buy alcohol 24 hours a day at convenience stores and drink in front of them. However, it is based on the premise that you have enough self-control not to harm others even if you drink. However, I think it is a mature culture to be sanctioned accordingly if you drink enough to the extent that your driver's license is revoked because you can't control drinking and driving. In any country, there are far more people who live properly within the boundaries of the law than those who do not obey the law. People don't like people like snakes who run away from the law. From what you said, I think you acknowledged that Suga did something bad, do you want him to run away from the law like those snakes? That's more insulting to Suga.

[@janneholm7071]

the allkpop commenters are HELLLA mad at suga. they're not exactly wrong, but i honestly just wished this never happened. i am very glad that suga isn't hurt and niether is anybody else for that matter, but APPARENTLY in his apology, he said he had one beer, but the police later said that the tests showed that he had up to 10. idk, but i hope everything turns out alright. I see a lot of knetz asking him to leave the group lol. i don't want that, it wouldnt be bts without him. i'm saying this as an army. suga is my bias in fact.

[@georgiana3112]

In his apology I didn't see him mentioning just one beer. That was what he first answered to the police officer most likely, and they must written in in their report, as it is everyone's default answer when asked- even where I live ,anyone that did something not right and are asked by an officer "did you drink?" the default answer is "one beer", cause that's a level where you don't get in trouble and maybe they walk off without testing you. What I mean is he didn't lie in the apology message, he just hoped for second he could get out of that situation without this scandal- I call it human surviving instinct.

Just as ARMYs pointed out Min Hee-jin's morality and demanded her expulsion, they should do the same to Suga.
