Drunk Driving Song Young-gyu, there is no such trouble...Eye Shopping, Tri, Shakespeare Fire



Actor Song Young-gyu was sent to the prosecution on charges of drunk driving, and the works he is starring in or about to appear were also sparked.

According to a News 1 report on the 25th, the Yongin Dongbu Police Station in Gyeonggi Province sent Song Young-kyu to the Suwon District Prosecutors' Office without detention late last month on charges of violating the Road Traffic Act (Drunk Driving). Song Young-gyu is accused of driving 5km from Giheung-gu to Cheoin-gu in Yongin City at 11 p.m. on the 19th of last month.

At that time, a witness reported "I suspect drunk driving", and the police who were dispatched to the scene identified Song Young-gyu's vehicle and arrested him. As a result of the alcohol consumption test, Song Young-gyu's blood alcohol concentration is known to correspond to the level of license cancellation.

In addition, Song Young-gyu was also appearing in the play 『Shakespeare in Love』, which will be performed at the Seoul Arts Center until September 14. As the controversy arose, the production company announced the casting change through its official SNS account.
