Lee Kyung-gyu, who came out after being investigated, said "I didn't realize that I shouldn't drive when I was sick after taking the panic disorder medicine this time"If you have that kind of medicine in the future, wouldn't it be better to refrain from driving. I will be careful in the future" he said.
As for driving someone else's vehicle, "I got on with the key. I started the engine because I was going to start it. I thought it was my car", he explained that it was a misunderstanding caused by a simple mistake by a parking management agent.
