‘He was so bad that the coach even scolded him’
According to the portal, Suga is currently serving as a social worker instead of enlisting for military duties. An eyewitness has reportedly said that Suga neither took his mandatory classes seriously, nor did he attend them despite being the leader.
The eyewitness said, “Suga never participated in the 4 Days 5 Nights class. He was so bad that the instructor even scolded him, to which Suga nodded and then looked at his phone before going to sleep. Suga behaved like he was a class bully trying to establish his dominance at the beginning of the school year.”
‘Suga’s DUI is the result of his poor work habits’
Suga has been facing criticism for his recent DUI (driving under the influence) scandal, with some on social media demanding that the BTS member leave the group altogether. Amid all this, the above report also revealed that another formal complaint (A) was filed against him, demanding that authorities investigate Suga’s time as a social worker.
It added, “Suga’s DUI is a result of his poor work attitude and the military office needs to investigate his work using CCTV. We strongly urge that Suga’s work while working as a social service worker under the Military Service Act be thoroughly investigated and that any violations found be reported to the authorities and dealt with strictly.”
More details on Suga’s drunk driving case
According to the latest reports, Suga has no intention of leaving BTS and is seriously considering his mistake. The local police have also said that Suga has not asked for a private summons, which means he can appear publicly for the impending investigation.
Last week, Suga apologized for driving an electric vehicle while drunk. His label, Big Hit Music, said Min Yoon-gi, popularly known as Suga, was driving an “electric kickboard” on Tuesday night when he fell while parking. The label said a police officer spotted him and gave him a Breathalyzer test, which Suga failed, leading to his license being revoked and a fine.
Electric kickboard means a type of vehicle that does not have a seat. However, police told local media that Suga’s vehicle had a seat and looked like an electric scooter under the traffic law. Drunk driving is punishable by fines depending on the type of vehicle.
Suga’s apology
In his apology on the online fan platform Weverse, Suga said he was driving after drinking alcohol at dinner. “I come to you with a very heavy heart and deeply apologize for disappointing you with this regrettable incident,” Suga wrote on Weverse. He added, “I thought it was a short distance, but I didn’t realize I’m not allowed to drive an electric scooter while drunk, which is a violation of the Road Traffic Act.”
