[theqoo] [EXCLUSIVE] "SUGA'S SCOOTER, WAS NOT A PERSONAL MOBILITY"... POLICE, MOTOR VEHICLE-BASED PENALTIES


A police representative has stated that BTS‘s Suga is subject to criminal punishment for operating a vehicle.

In an exclusive statement to media outlet Dispatch, an official from the Yongsan Police Station has stated that the electric scooter Suga was operating is not considered a personal mobility device. Thus, he is subject to criminal punishment on the same basis of driving a car while under the influence of alcohol.

A personal mobility device is classified as a device to move an individual with a maximum speed of 25 kilometers per hour and weighs under 30 kilograms. While many electric scooters are classified as personal mobility devices, the device Suga was operating is classified as a motorized bicycle. In Korea, this carries the same weight as operating a car.

"Suga was operating an electric scooter. After investigating the device, we have found that [the scooter model] is not included in the personal mobility device list.

Operating a personal mobility device would result in administrative measures. [Suga’s scooter] was not a personal mobility device. Therefore, he can be subject to criminal punishment for driving under the influence."

The police’s investigation schedule into the case has not been set yet. Under the Road Traffic Act, driving with a blood alcohol level of 0.08% or higher is subject to punishment of a fine between ₩5.00 million KRW (about $3,650 USD) to ₩10.0 million KRW (about $7,290 USD) or a prison sentence of 1-2 years.

Earlier, the Military Manpower Association confirmed Suga would not face extra punishment from the military.

1. It's legendary how people were acting as if he was fined when the fine wasn't even decided yet

2. Farewell...

3. I don't think he'll be able to go on TV anymore...

4. Now, all that's left is to see how far Suga will go without a conscience. If he truly valued the members and the group, he wouldn’t just watch them suffer. 

5. If he's going to face criminal charges for drunk driving on an electric scooter without leaving the group, he should just leave

6. Why does HYBE keep lying? It will all come out eventually...

7. Why did he lie about it?

8. Now, if people mention Bangtan, "DUI" will be the first thing that comes up

9. Suga, please leave the group

10. Hul... so it was DUIã„·
