Recent findings from South Korean media outlet DongA Ilbo reveal that SUGA’s statements about driving 500 meters on his electric scooter before falling in front of his home were accurate. The report confirms that SUGA had indeed traveled the claimed distance from his personal studio to his residence at Nine One Hannam, and he did fall while making a left turn as he described.
The incident occurred after SUGA had been drinking with acquaintances at his studio, which is located approximately 500 meters from his house. The new report corroborates his previous claims, showing that SUGA did not lie about the distance or the location of his fall.
Following the accident, SUGA was tested for alcohol, and although the breath analyzer confirmed the presence of alcohol, the exact amount was not disclosed by the police. SUGA was taken to the nearest police station, where it was confirmed he had been drinking. Despite this, no private summons was requested by SUGA, and the police have yet to set a date for further investigation into the case.
SUGA remains focused on his military service as a social service worker while navigating the aftermath of the incident.
