[+135, -20] You got more hate because of that CCTV, Suga, sue JTBC

[+109, -6] Wow, Hive should sue that channel… That CCTV footage of a big wheeled scooter speeding along got a ton of hate… But it was actually filmed by someone else??????

[+87, -3] Hasn't JTBC always been proud of fact-checking, cross-checking, etc.? But did they put it out without even checking? I don't think this is a problem that can be fixed with a simple apology…

[+76, -4] They should not only take the video down, but also make a proper apology, what a horrible thing this is.

[+70, -2] So that's it? If I just take the video down, I'm innocent?

[+22, -0] I am not defending his decision to drink and drive, but the broadcasting channel should be held accountable for this. There is no denying that he got more than he deserved because of this CCTV.

[+21, -0] I released an “exclusive” report without any verification… and I got a ton of hate for it!!!

[+19, -1] JTBC: ??? Then is it okay?

[+19, -1] I remember seeing someone say that X isn't sugar, and maybe they were right

[+13, -1] JTBC is a really terrible channel

article: 'Drunk Driving' BTS Suga, missing… After drinking -> went to workroom -> went home and collapsed

[+267, -174] It basically looks like a kickboard with a seat, but I don't think it's a motorcycle. I've seen a lot of them on the sidewalk. I think someone might not know the laws about it.

[+176, -79] Since this electric scooter is so new, and it is not a motorcycle or a bicycle, it is understandable why someone might be confused about the laws surrounding it. He most likely did not know that he cannot drive after drinking alcohol. Think about it. When have you ever seen one driving along a road? Usually on the sidewalk.

[+168, -75] Isn't the bigger problem that he drove it to the press…?

– [+85, -9] Yes, and the article also said he was found passed out on the street, but that wasn't true.

– [+82, -28] I see this a lot on the news… It's not a scooter, it's a kickboard.

– [+79, -3] I can see he's confused. It looks like a bicycle. It probably looks safe to drive on the sidewalk while drinking. Why would people take it on the road? It's 1/3 the size of an adult.

[+77, -24] I still don't understand how you can make so much money just to not spend it on taxis…

[+46, -6] I thought it was a scooter??? It's not a scooter… And the other CCTV footage of him speeding isn't of him either?…

[+44, -11] Yes, it looks like a full electric scooter. Legally, it could be considered a scooter, but it doesn't look like a scooter at all. That's probably why Sugar wrote it as a scooter in his letter. Poor guy.

[+44, -10] I don't know much about these things, but it looks too small to be called a scooter. No one would think it's a scooter.

[+42, -10] Not a Sugar fan but people need to step back. No one was hurt by his actions.

[+40, -6] It's less than 1/3 the size of an adult, but those who call it a motorcycle should all come out now.

[+37, -2] So all those articles about him hitting something were lies… he didn't hit anything, he just fell over on his own in front of his house lol the media completely blew it and made up a story to get more hate. Wow… sure, drinking and driving is bad but spreading fake news isn't either.

[+34, -1] So he just fell over, and the press was running around like he was 'drunk', like he was completely 'out of his mind'… and he was cool enough to greet everyone properly after he fell over…

[+31, -1] Wow, I got cursed at because of CCTV and it ended up being fake… I got cursed at all weekend for “lying” about CCTV ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ It's creepy… What are you doing, Hive? Why aren't you suing JTBC?

[+28, -3] That scooter doesn't even look like the size of a toy, who would have expected him to drive it on the road????????? He had every right to drive it on the sidewalk

[+27, -1] Yeah, it really looks like a children's toy lol Are JTBC and Yonhap News trying to banish them… Are they spreading fake news without fact checking???? Why?

[+26, -1] All the articles claiming that Suga lied without evidence… The media really needs to reflect on this issue. We can't just keep saying “Oh, oh” every time they spread fake news.

[+25, -1] Hey, where was the article yesterday that claimed he fell over after bumping into something…

[+24, -0] Anyone who knows the actual laws for kickboards and scooters, please raise your hand! If there were such a thing, I would drive on the sidewalk too! Who would drive these on the road? How many lives would be lost???

[+22, -1] No, that's right, it looks like a kickboard… Then what was the last CCTV;;

[+20, -0] This new CCTV saved Sugar's life. He wasn't lying, it was really a kickboard. Someone needs to arrest the person who posted the first CCTV claiming it was Sugar.

[+17, -1] Wow… for a whole week the media has been relentlessly reporting on him like he's totally drunk and riding a motorcycle… but in reality it's pretty… pathetic?? Haha no one would call that a scooter… no, it looks more like a child's toy.. and it looks like it's “stuck” but then it falls over and you see how it gets right back up?
