Suga has been vindicated, revealing the underground forces behind it, pushing BTS to the end

All 7 BTS members have completed their obligations. Currently, the members are all scheduled to prepare for a comeback except for Suga who remains silent. After being discharged, Suga faced major criticism that could be removed from the upcoming BTS.

In the past few days, Suga's (BTS) drunk driving scandal from last year has suddenly been "dug up", not only revolving around the male idol's mistakes but also pointing directly at the alarming responsibility of the Korean media.

According to Kbizoom, one of the main reasons why Suga's image was difficult to recover came from a serious mistake by the press, when they published a large amount of false information, making the case worse than what actually happened. This story once again sounded the alarm about professional ethics and the lack of information verification by the Korean media.

TV station "playing dirty": Using fake videos, labeling Suga a "liar"

When the BTS member's scandal broke out, many media outlets did not hesitate to "race" to publish news without caring about authenticity. One of the units that caused the most damage to Suga's reputation was TV station A.

The station blatantly posted a CCTV footage that allegedly recorded Suga driving a reckless and dangerous scooter while drunk on the street. Immediately, a series of social networking sites and other information channels reused the video, labeling Suga a "liar", "deliberately making false statements to mitigate the crime". This created a wave of fierce criticism aimed at the male idol, pushing the incident to a climax.

However, the truth is completely different. It was not until a week later that the DongA Ilbo news agency came into the investigation and made a shocking correction: the video provided by Radio A in Suga's case was completely inaccurate. DongA Ilbo posted the actual video of the BTS rapper's violation of traffic laws, and confirmed that Radio A shared another person's video, which was completely unrelated to Suga.

Soon after, Radio A quickly deleted the original footage from YouTube and replaced it with a new one released by DongA Ilbo. Despite reporting false news, seriously affecting the honor of an individual, Radio A did not have any corrections or apologies to BTS members. In addition to Radio A, there are many other media channels that also publish unverified news about Suga's alcohol content as well as the development of Suga's violation, contributing to "exaggerating" and distorting the truth.

"Chasing breaking news without the truth": Deep concern about Korean media ethics

On the Pamn forum, although Suga admitted that he made a mistake and is facing legal consequences, netizens still expressed deeper concerns: it is the exaggeration and irresponsibility of the Korean media in reporting on artists who make mistakes.

Suga's case is considered by netizens to be a typical example of chasing breaking news without caring about the truth, not caring about the bad influence that can happen to insiders of the Korean media. Kbizoom said that this behavior is no different from "forcing others to the last step" of media forces.

Although there have been thousands of articles criticizing and posting false information about BTS members that have been spread, few corrections have been made after the police announced the results of the official investigation. This shows a serious lack of social responsibility and professional ethics in a section of the Korean press, raising major questions about transparency and fairness.

Details of Suga's violation: Alcohol concentration exceeded the permissible level nearly 8 times

Looking back at last year's incident, Suga (BTS) was prosecuted for drunk driving. On the evening of August 6, after eating and drinking at a restaurant, then continuing to stay in a studio near his home, the male idol drove his own electric scooter on the sidewalk at 11 p.m.

At about 11:10 p.m., while passing by police patrol in the Nine One Hannam area (Yongsan, Seoul), Suga lost his balance and fell. Three policemen took him back to the station. By August 9, police announced that Suga's alcohol content was 0.227%, nearly eight times the legal limit (0.03%). He was fined 15 million won (about 261 million VND).

Heavy consequences: Damage to BTS's reputation and division in Fandom

Suga's case not only affected him personally, but also greatly damaged BTS's global reputation. When other members were performing military service, this incident was said to be "smearing rice husk ashes" on the group's image. The BTS fandom community was deeply divided, many people were disappointed and asked Suga to leave the group.

This scandal, along with the irresponsible reporting of the media, has become a valuable lesson in celebrity responsibility and journalistic ethics, raising questions about the fairness and transparency of information.
