「BTS」SUGA、波紋ing
How much of an impact will this have? BTS' SUGA, Military Manpower Administration comments on suspected drunk driving while enlisted... Ripples
The controversy over the drunk driving of Korean boy band "BTS" SUGA is not over. The matter is spreading day by day, with even the Military Manpower Administration getting involved in related rumors.
On the night of the 6th, SUGA was caught by police while driving an electric scooter while drunk near his home in Hannam-dong, Yongsan-gu, Seoul, and was arrested and charged with violating road traffic laws.
At the time, Suga's blood alcohol content was 0.227%, far above the 0.08% limit that would result in license revocation.
Suga enlisted as a social service officer in September last year and is currently serving in the military. While he was being scolded for drunk driving during his enlistment, he posted on the social service officer community app "Public Interest Persons".
Numerous posts were made through the app, claiming that Suga had caused the special leave given to deputy heads to disappear. Previously, users of the app had accused Suga of neglecting his duties.
As speculations like this continued, the Military Manpower Administration immediately announced in a press release on the 21st that it had considered suspending the special leave of the head of the division in relation to the training of social service personnel.
According to the Military Manpower Administration, the importance of the role of the division chief in relation to the education of social service personnel has been emphasized, but the suspension of special leave, etc.
He said that he has not considered it. Currently, Suga has not made any special statement since his apology for Drunk Driving. However, various ripples continue to surround him.
At a regular police press conference held on the 19th of this month, the police stated that at the time, BIGHIT MUSIC, the management office of BTS, was embroiled in a debate over whether to scale down the case.
Regarding MUSIC's stance that the license revocation and fine had been imposed, making it seem as if the proceedings were over, he said, "We will explain the remaining procedures once we have cracked down on them.
"I was supposed to do so, but I don't know why he made such a statement, or if he was drunk and can't remember."
