He is scheduled for a summons.

BTS‘s Suga was previously caught drunk driving an electric scooter on the night of August 6, 2024. Various CCTV footage have shown that he was operating an electric scooter with a seat, toppling over near Nine One Hannam apartments. Police who were patrolling the area rushed to help him, detecting alcohol on him. They later gave him an alcohol test which showed a 0.227% result.

The star is scheduled for a summons to the station as part of his investigations. Various members of the press had previously waited for him to show up on August 14, 2024. He did not turn up on that day. In response to queries about his summons schedule, the police gave a statement on August 19.

They claimed that he would not be given any special privileges in the investigation, and his case would be treated the same as any other.

There were several things that happened, so the investigative team is adjusting the schedule [for the summons]. We plan on confirming it for this week, and we will not be calling him in on the weekend, or late at night.

It is likely that Suga’s attending of the summons will not be open to the public. The police have stated that they will be unable to create opportunity for press photos, and will treat him the same as any other perpetrator. They have also promised to thoroughly investigate him for all the various suspicions brought up alongside his drunk driving.

On the other hand, HYBE is maintaining strict security on the matter. According to an insider, information about Suga’s incident was only divulged to those involved in the case, as well as a few people in high positions at the company, in order to thoroughly prepare for the investigations. Suga himself is also said to be avoiding contact with external parties as much as possible. The matter is being treated with much caution and care.
