Korean netizens reacted to BTS Suga‘s blood alcohol and possible punishment.
On August 9, it was reported that Suga’s blood level alcohol was 8 times the limit the legal limit.
According to an exclusive report from Donga Ilbo, the Yongsan Police Station measured Suga’s blood alcohol content at 0.227% when they checked on him following his fall from a seated scooter. However, Suga had initially testified that he only had one glass of beer.
More alarming is the fact that Suga’s blood alcohol level, which was 0.227%, means that the idol is facing 2-5 years in prison or a fine that’s between ₩10.0 million KRW (about $7,290 USD) and ₩20.0 million KRW (about $14,600 USD).
Netizens reacted to the news with disappointment and anger. Some netizens even called for the idol to leave the group due to lying about having only one drink.
“Honestly, wouldn’t the courts be doing him a favor by giving him a fine? The fine isn’t even money to him. We should make celebrities who commit crimes repay the money they made.”
“Leave the group.”
“He and HYBE need to count their blessings that there wasn’t an accident.”
“??”
“He’s seriously lucky to be alive.”
“Wow??? He’s lucky he only fell…”
“One can of beer?? Why did he lie?”
“He’s lucky that there wasn’t a bigger accident.”
“0.2? Why did he lie about having one beer? Didn’t it hurt his conscience when he lied? He’s seriously lucky that he didn’t cause an accident.”
“Leave the group, f*ck.”
“Leave the group future murderer.”
“Wow… Didn’t the police say his blood alcohol was 0.08%? How did the number explode?”
“Crazy, 0.227%???”
“He planned on lying to all of us.”
“He tried to minimize his drinking by saying he drank while eating, LOL. He had a big meal consisting of alcohol.”
“He’s shameless for lying. How can he lie in his statement so nonchalantly?”
