JTBC’s 'Newsroom' has issued an official apology after mistakenly reporting that BTS member Suga was involved in a drunk driving incident.

On August 16th, during the broadcast, the anchor addressed the earlier report, which claimed that Suga was caught on CCTV riding an electric scooter while intoxicated.

The 'Newsroom' team clarified, "It has been confirmed that the man in the video was not Suga. We apologize for the confusion caused," and expressed their regret.

The original report, aired on August 7th, alleged that Suga was seen driving an electric scooter in a drunken state in Seoul's Yongsan District on the 6th.

This report led to widespread criticism, with many questioning Suga’s previous statement, where he mentioned an "accident in front of his house."

After realizing the error, JTBC quickly deleted the news videos from various platforms and replaced the CCTV footage with unrelated road video.

Earlier, on August 6th, Suga had admitted to riding an electric scooter after drinking, which led to a fall. He apologized, saying, "I rode an electric scooter home after drinking, thinking the short distance was safe. I didn’t realize it was illegal. I fell while trying to park the scooter, and a police officer nearby tested me, resulting in my license being revoked and a fine."

The controversy grew when it was revealed that Suga’s blood alcohol concentration was 0.227%, far above the legal limit.

The incident has caused a divide among fans, with some supporting Suga and others demanding his departure from the group.

Actor Lee Min Ho recently shared an unforgettable and embarrassing moment from his early career, revealing how he became a “falling star” at his first Baeksang Arts Awards.

On the December 25th episode of You Quiz on the Block (Episode 274), Lee Min Ho made a guest appearance and reflected on his rise to fame.

The actor, known for his iconic role as Goo Jun Pyo in Boys Over Flowers, won the Best New Actor award at the Baeksang Arts Awards, but it wasn’t just his victory that grabbed attention.

Lee Min Ho recalled, "I was attending the Baeksang for the first time, and I was so excited. Since I wasn’t going as Goo Jun Pyo, but as Lee Min Ho, I styled my hair in a perm and was ready to go." However, things took an unexpected turn when he tripped and fell on the red carpet.

He sighed, recalling, "That day, I fell. I fell and created so many memes. Even now, I look back and think, 'How did I walk that quickly on the red carpet?'"

Laughing at his own clumsiness, he admitted, "I was moving at the speed of light, no composure, no focus. Honestly, more than the joy of winning the award, that day was chaotic and so embarrassing for me."

Though his win was a highlight, Lee Min Ho humorously shared that the incident of tripping overshadowed the excitement of his achievement.

It’s safe to say that while the fall became a funny meme, it also became a lesson in humility for the actor, and a moment that fans still remember to this day.
