The outlet also shared some insights about Suga's license plate, confirming that the scooter didn't need to have a number plate. The matter's inquiry was consulted with the Ministry of Land.
On social media platform X (Twitter), ARMYs reacted to the update.
Lawsuits are coming. Suga was put through the worst mental anguish of his life for the last 20 days and for nothing at all. His license better be reinstated tomorrow, and they better give him the apology of the century. There better be no fine at all. Complete ridiculousness. https://t.co/mYxbCd004Q
They had to consult the ministry of the land for that??????? So who will they consult when there are telegram channels of incels sharing women's info and sexually harassing them? The ministry of social media? What a joke. https://t.co/HYImu2c4Mq
Just hoping they're willing to admit their fault and not trying to justify what they've done cus it's caused so much damage. At some point, they're wronged. That's the truth. https://t.co/zfvK3oRbVB
Suga released a second apology on August 25. The idol's message was posted on Weverse, where the idol apologized thoroughly to fans about the controversy.
"I have made a big mistake," Suga said. "I've forgotten the responsibility to repay you with actions worthy of the love I've received."
Suga has also expounded on how the issue must have affected BTS as a group.
"I damaged the precious memories I made with the members and fans, while also putting pressure on BTS's name," Suga wrote. "I feel so apologetic and regretful that it's difficult to express since it's causing damage to the members and the group."
The rapper ended the note, "I will receive necessary criticism and disciplinary consequences. Once again, I sincerely apologize for causing a stir and disappointing many people."
Fans expressed their kind words to the idol, and trended hashtags such as "YOU DID NOT DISAPPOINT US," and "WE TRUST YOU YOONGI."
