Actor Go Kyung Pyo reportedly caused a traffic accident while driving under the influence of alcohol.

The actor’s agency, CLN Company, put out an official statement on November 14, admitting to the crime. They revealed that the actor had hit a sanitation truck with his personal vehicle while driving around in Mapo-gu at 3 am on Wednesday night. A breathalyzer test was conducted at the scene, and it confirmed that his blood alcohol level was high enough to result in a revocation of his license.

Under Korean law, DUI penalties can differ based on the Blood Alcohol Level (BAC). A BAC of 0.03% to less than 0.08% generally results in a driver’s license suspension, while a BAC of 0.08% or higher generally results in license revocation. Aside from these administrative penalties, the person committing DUI can also face criminal penalties depending on their BAC.

According to CLN Company, Go Kyung Pyo was questioned by the police but wasn’t detained. The police are still said to be investigating the exact circumstances of the accident. The actor’s agency has reassured that he is committed to taking responsibility for this mistake and intends to make amends to all the people who were affected by his DUI.

Meanwhile, Go Kyung Pyo is currently appearing on multiple programs, including tvN’s Sixth Sense: B-Side and MBC’s Hangout with Yoo. He is also set to appear in tvN’s The Village Barber 2, which premieres on the 29th, and TVING’s Great Escape: Urban Ghost Stories, which will be released on December 2. However, with this DUI incident, all of these appearances are expected to be affected negatively.
