For people who don’t know, SUGA was found to be driving an electric scooter under the influence of alcohol on the night of August 6, 2024, while he was returning from a gathering. While making a turn he reportedly lost his balance and fell down, then a patrolling officer nearby helped him but when he sniffed alcohol on his breath, chose to take SUGA to the nearest police station.
Later, SUGA underwent a breath analyzer test, and police never confirmed the level of alcohol while some reports claimed it was 0.227%, those reports were soon quashed. After some days, a new CCTV video near the D-Day rapper’s home reportedly confirmed that SUGA’s claims of driving 500 m distance by electric scooter and falling down in front of his house were true.
In the latest developments, yesterday on August 25, SUGA posted a second handwritten apology letter on Weverse. SUGA apologized for the drunk and driving incident once again and said that he had damaged memories created with BTS and apologized for the same.
