Kim Sae Ron, who damaged the transformer by causing a drunk driving accident, promised clear compensation for damage.
Kim Sae Ron, an official at the agency, made an official announcement on Newsen on May 23 in connection with a report that he had reached an agreement with the Korea Electric Power Corporation.
First of all, Kim Sae Ron said, "I decided to take responsibility for the damage caused by the accident," adding, "The cost in the current article was roughly reported from KEPCO at the beginning of the accident, but the insurance company is currently arranging the exact amount."
"Regarding compensation, I have received and are collecting not only Korea Electric Power Corporation but also those who have suffered damage," she said.
In addition, Kim Sae Ron emphasized, "I apologize to those who have avoided it once again, and I will do my best to compensate for the damage."
Earlier, Kim Sae Ron-ron was caught by the police, who had been reported to the citizens several times after driving a luxury foreign car near Hakdong Intersection in Gangnam-gu, Seoul, at 8 a.m. on May 18th.
Kim Sae Ron damaged the transformer in the accident, causing electricity to be cut off in about 50 places, including four surrounding buildings, traffic lights and streetlights.
As a result, it took four hours for the new transformer to be installed, and during that time, nearby shopping malls were unable to operate normally, causing financial damage.
Since then, Kim Sae Ron's agency has said on May 19, "Kim Sae Ron is deeply reflecting on his wrongdoings. Kim Sae Ron apologized to many people who suffered damage and inconvenience from this, and to all those who are striving to restore damaged public facilities, and promised to do their best to recover the damage," he apologized.
In addition, the agency said, "We are also deeply responsible for the occurrence of such an incident. Once again, I apologize to everyone who suffered from this inconvenience. We will do our best to communicate and actively resolve them in the future,".
