BTS‘ Suga was fined and had his license revoked after driving an electric scooter while intoxicated on Tuesday (August 6). The 31-year-old Kpop superstar was found alone on the ground by a Seoul police officer in charge of traffic, and was administered a breath test at a police station. The singer’s blood alcohol content was above license revocation levels of at least 0.08 percent, according to the officer.
Suga posted an apology on Weverse expressing his regret. “Last night, I rode an electric kickboard home after drinking at a dinner party. I violated the Road Traffic Act because I thought it was a short distance and did not realize that I could not use an electric kickboard while intoxicated. I fell down by myself while stopping the electric kickboard at the front gate of my house, and a police officer was nearby, so I tested my breathalyzer and had my license revoked and was fined. It is my responsibility and I have no excuses. I apologize to everyone who was hurt by my careless and wrongful actions, and I will be more careful in my actions to prevent such incidents from happening again.” (Billboard)
