The 31-year-old K-pop star wrote a lengthy X post describing the situation in which he expressed his regret over the incident. “I am deeply sorry and deeply sorry to have to come to you with disappointing news,” he wrote.
“I rode an electric scooter home after drinking at a dinner last night. I thought it was a short distance and didn’t realize that you can’t ride an electric scooter while intoxicated, so I violated the road traffic laws.” While the rapper did not specify when or where the incident took place, the South Korean star provided a description of the incident that he said resulted from his “careless and wrong actions.

No one was harmed or any facilities were damaged in the process, but this is my responsibility and I have no excuses, so I bow my head and apologize to everyone.” Suga still has a bit less than a year left on his alternative mandatory South Korean military service; he was deemed unfit for regular combat duty due to a 2020 shoulder injury.
