On Sunday, rapper Suga posted a handwritten apology on social media, addressing his fellow BTS members and fans. This comes just days after he was questioned in connection with a police investigation into a driving under the influence (DUI) incident. In the message shared on BTS’ Weverse page, Min Yoon-gi aka Suga, expressed his regret for riding an electric scooter on the sidewalk after drinking.
He wrote, “I would like to ashamedly apologize once again.I sincerely apologize for the disappointment that my misbehavior has caused to my fans and those who have shown me love. I have made a big mistake and have forgotten my responsibility to repay everyone with actions worthy of the amount of love that I have received.”
He further added, “On August 6, I made the mistake of driving an electric scooter on the sidewalk after drinking. Also, I am sorry for the confusion I caused following my first apology I hastily posted on August 7. I should have thought more deeply about my actions and have been more careful, but I did not.” Amid the probe, the singer had to pay a fine and his license was also reportedly revoked.
“Due to this incident, I have severely damaged the precious memories I have made with the BTS members and the fans, and have hurt BTS’s name. I feel very sorry and am in pain for causing harm to the BTS members and the team, to the point I cannot express fully. I am sorry to the members who have always trusted me, because they are having a hard time because of me. And I know how disappointed the fans, who have supported me, must feel. I just feel so sorry to the fans who have always given me so much love… I know that it will be difficult to heal the wounds and repair the disappointment my fans feel with my words, so I am regretting my actions and will reflect on them with a heavy heart every day. Once again, I sincerely apologize to the fans who were hurt by my actions,” he further wrote.
The 31-year-old idol also stated that he will accept all punishments for his actions.
On August 23, Suga reportedly arrived for the first round of police questioning at the Yongsan Police Station, where he was reportedly interrogated for three hours.
