[Exclusive] “BTS Suga, only slept during military training” Witness account...Additional civil complaint filed with Military Manpower Administration
Witnessing Unfaithful Education in Social Service Community, Additional Complaints Raised
Military Manpower Administration Begins Investigation into Previous 'Duty Negligence Suspicion' Civil Complaint
The drunk driving incident involving BTS member Suga (Min Yoongi) is causing a stir. Following a petition to investigate Suga's dereliction of duty while serving as an alternative military service member, additional petitions followed as eyewitness accounts emerged that Suga was negligent in his social service.
The suspicion of Suga's insincere social service came from the social service-related application 'Public Interest Human'. A social service worker with the nickname 'Pyeongbal Election Commission' gave an eyewitness account of receiving basic service training with Suga last November. It is said that Suga did not properly participate in the class even though he was the team leader.
The social worker said, "Suga never participated in class (educational time) for 4 nights and 5 days," and "The instructor must have thought it was too much because he even scolded him. He woke up one day, nodded without knowing what was going on, looked at his phone, and went back to sleep." Due to this behavior of Suga, the group leader, the group participation rate was the lowest, and he said, "He felt like a mediocre bully at the beginning of the semester when I was in school."
The basic military training that Suga participated in was the 35th class in 2023, and Dawn was in the same class. It took place at the Social Service Training Center in Boeun-gun, Chungcheongbuk-do. In the social service community related to the class, there were many eyewitness accounts such as, "Suga was in charge of the division of work" and "Unlike Dawn, Suga did not sign autographs." According to an official at the Social Service Training Center, the 35th class in 2023 received basic military training from November 20 to 24 last year.
In the case of a squad leader, an applicant is selected and appointed if the social service workers in the squad agree to it. It is usually a similar role to a squad leader in active service. If the squad leader completes his duties, he is awarded a commendation and sometimes even given a special vacation. However, in the case of Suga, it is not confirmed whether he received a commendation for completing his squad.
The suspicion of Suga's dereliction of duty spread beyond the app to online communities late last year, and was pointed out at the time. In addition to the weekday drunk driving incident, additional complaints were filed after a petition was filed to investigate the suspicion of dereliction of duty.
Person A, who filed the additional complaint, said, “Suga’s drunk driving was the result of his ‘insincere work attitude,’ and the Military Manpower Administration should ‘investigate his actual service status by checking the CCTV of the service institution.”
In addition, he said, “We ask that you thoroughly investigate the ‘service agency’s service management status’ and ‘Sugar’s service management status’ while he is serving as a social service agent in accordance with other military service laws, and we strongly urge that you take strict measures, such as reporting him to the investigative authorities, if any illegal activities are discovered.”
This complaint has also been assigned to the Seoul Regional Military Manpower Administration, and the related investigation is expected to continue. It has been confirmed that the complaint regarding Suga’s negligence of duty filed earlier was also assigned to the same office, and that an investigation has currently begun.
At around 11:27 PM on the 6th, Suga was found fallen alone while riding an electric scooter on a street in Hannam-dong, Yongsan-gu, Seoul. A nearby police officer helped him up and handed him over, and the breathalyzer test results showed his blood alcohol content level at 0.227%, which is considered intoxicated.
