Nam Tae Hyun’s Agency Clears Misinformation About His Drunk Driving Controversy

“Hello, We’re Nam Tae Hyun’s agency, Noname Music.  

First of all, we apologize for the delay in expressing our official position to confirm the facts. We sincerely apologize for causing concern due to the fault of the artist Nam Tae Hyun.

Nam Tae Hyun finished a meeting with his acquaintances in Gangnam at around 3:30 a.m. on March 8, 2023, and first moved about 5m to park his vehicle that was blocking his acquaintances’ vehicles, and then tried to wait for the driver he has called.

In the process, while Nam Tae Hyun was opening the door of a parked vehicle, an accident occurred in which Nam Tae Hyun’s vehicle and a side mirror of a passing taxi collided. Nam Tae Hyun took a look at the damages to the taxi driver’s vehicle immediately after the collision and promised to sufficiently compensate for the damage.

However, unlike some media reports, Nam Tae Hyun did not drive many meters after the collision with a taxi, but moved about 5 meters forward and parked again. There is no excuse for making a momentary rash judgment despite being drunk.  

Nam Tae Hyun deeply reflects on his mistake, and he will faithfully conduct a police investigation and be punished for his mistake. We deeply apologize to everyone. We also feel responsible for such an incident.

We will do our best to resolve this case, and we will do our best to prevent this from happening again by carefully managing our artists. Once again,
We’re sorry for causing concern to everyone.”
