BTS's Suga failed to appear at Yongsan Police Station after his DUI incident , leaving hundreds of global reporters waiting. What happened and what will happen to Suga? We have all the details! There was confusion on August 22 when it was reported that BTS member Suga , who is under investigation for drunk driving on an E-scooter was supposed to attend his first police questioning. However, this turned out to be false, leading to chaos on the scene from global media reporters. Of course, this event caused fans to take to social media as well as media outlets reporting on the incident and no-show of the BTS star. The police initially planned for this questioning to be private, which I agree with, as it is a matter between them and the suspect. News about Suga’s appearance leaked late last night, causing a large number of reporters to gather at the scene early in the morning. This investigation, of course, has reached global interest due to the star's success. I also believe that it does bring a more key concern for those who ride e-scooters while drinking, which can of course lead to accidents and very dangerous situations, which the public should be cautious of. One of the key questions was whether Suga would have to face the media at a photo line. A police official mentioned that the process would follow the same rules as for any other suspect. However, since Yongsan Police Station doesn’t have an underground parking lot and its entrance is narrow, it seemed likely that Suga would have to pass by the reporters on his way to the station for the meeting with the police. Any photo of the star during this time would have achieved a lot of money for the press. Let us know your thoughts on this topic in the comments below. #Suga #ScooterScandal #DUI #drunkdriving
