Reason why idols drunk driving shouldn’t be taken lightly
Netizens discuss an incident that resulted in death of a wife and a daughter due to a drunk driver
Idols and celebrities drunk driving hasn’t been new in the industry. Yesterday, we reported that male idol group Supernova member Yoon Sungmo was rested while leading police to a wild drunk car chase. Although drunk driving is taken lightly and often forgiven by their fans as they protect their biases, some think otherwise.
Originally posted on Pann, netizens are furious at recent incident involving a drunk driver that resulted in deaths of a wife and a child.
Titled “What To Do About This Crazy Situation?” here is the direct translation of the post and comments below.
“The photo of the vehicle after the accident”
“The seat behind the woman sitting int he back folded as the (cargo truck) hit from the back.”
Victim and husband of the wife and child: “The biggest I have in life is…. living itself….”
The drunk driver the caused the accident: “(After drinking) I usually wake up after a nap but because I was tired I wasn’t aware of it (situation)”
Victim and husband of the wife and child: “Two people died just like that suddenly and he (the person who caused it) only got 4 years.. 4 years…”
Victim and husband of the wife and child: “What is ironic is that I am only living today because of the suspect right now. (in order to give him a more severe sentencing)”
“I hope everyone remembers her (Miso) just one more time.”
“So that… my daughter won’t be forgotten..”
The drunk driver literally ruined a happy family but he only got sentenced for 4 years?
Does this make f*cking sense?
Our Korean laws are f*cking bullsh*t.
His wife and daughter died…. How is he going to live…
Our district attorney and judge mother f*ckers.. really…
Would they give only 4 years if their family members were involved???????
F*ck our country’s laws!!!!!!!!!!!
Please spread this on SNS!”
