Video footage of Daesung’s car accident revealed!

UPDATE 5:

*Hyori twitter update*
항상 모든것을 자기탓으로 돌리는 대성이 심성을 알기에 더욱 안타깝 고 걱정이 됩니다…

It worries me more that as usual Daesung’s mentality will turn into self-blame…

UPDATE 4:
Following today’s accident, it will be inevitable for Big Bang and Daesung to make changes to their promotional activities. Big Bang recently finished their Japanese Tour Concerts and is currently in a resting period. But a lot of their individual activities and new album production plans will have to be altered due to today’s accident. Daesung currently is a regular on SBS “Night After Night.”
For a more accurate investigation, the police are currently reviewing the CCTV screens while the damaged motorcycle and some footage of the accident have been sent to the National Forensic Service for closer examination. In the meantime, YG Entertainment said in an official statement that “Daesung is currently in a heavy state of shock and grief over the accident he could’t avoid. He broke down in tears in concern over the victim… He will follow any police investigation but he is in great pain over this issue.”

UPDATE 3:
이어 “대성이 시속 80km로 주행하던 중 앞을 미처 보지 못해 사고가 난 것으로 안전운전 의무 불이행에 해당된다”며 “도로 속도 규정이 60km여서 80km 달렸으면 속도위반에 해당되나 대성의 진술이기 때문에 실제 얼마로 달렸는지는 더 조사해봐야 한다”고 덧붙였다.

Police stated that Daesung was speeding on a road that has a limit of 60km/hr, while Daesung was driving at 80km/hr so he can be charged for that but they’re still investigating whether the motorcyclist died BEFORE or AFTER Daesung arrived.

UPDATE 2:
The police have come out with a statement for the first stage of the investigation saying that they believe Daesung is not behind the motorcyclist’s death. They’ll need to continue their investigation, but for now they believe the motorcyclist was already dead at the scene due to the hit and run before Daesung and the taxi driver got there.

UPDATE:
“This is what the news are reporting on tv. Daesung ran over the already dead body and when the taxi stopped in front of the body to check on it, Daesung crashed into the taxi. The taxi driver changed lanes when he noticed the motorcyclist and stopped, got out and tried to dial 119. Mind you, this is already dark outside so Daesung driving behind the taxi driver didn’t see the body and ran over it and then hit the taxi since he couldn’t react fast enough. The taxi driver is not injured..no matter what people will put the blame on Daesung.”
Basically the motorcyclist was in between Daesung’s car and the taxi. Daesung hit the already unconscious and perhaps dead motorcyclist and then he hit the taxi because he wasn’t able to break fast enough.
The Korean media is reporting that as of 6:50AM KST, Daesung has completed five hours of initial investigations with the police, and is making his way home.
The star was described to have worn a black hoodie over his face while leaving the police station with his manager.
Police commented, “Daesung was overwhelmed with the accident today, but he diligently took part in the investigations.”

The best comments ever :

Some people are just ignoring the motorcyclist and just caring about Daesung WTF. Yes, you have the right to be concerned for your idol.. but somebody just died and people are ignoring that fact. At least be sympathetic for the motorcyclist and his family, and don't just ignore them. Yes, he killed somebody and is traumatized. But who's more traumatized, the family or Daesung? Im not hating on him, just pointing out the ignorance.

I don't understand how some people can be so selfish and pray for Daesung, when there's a dead person and probably a family crushing over it, imagine if it was your lover, friend or relative.

It's sad that his is involved, but if investigations results in Daesung being guilty... that's his fault. It's harsh, but this is reality, I love the guy, love his voice and Big Bang is awesome, but we are not talking about idols here, they are persons after all.
