Last month, Suga, one of the members of the hugely popular South Korean boy band BTS, was caught driving an electric scooter while intoxicated. Suga made a public apology, and then he apologized again for not being penitent enough in his first apology. Now, Reuters reports that a judge at Seoul Western District Court has fined Suga 15 million won, or about $11,500. Suga can apply for a regular trial within seven days of the judge’s decision.

Right now, BTS are on hiatus as the group’s members fulfill their compulsory South Korean military service. The 31-year-old Suga has been serving as a social service agent in South Korea since last year. Since his drunk driving incident, BTS fans have been petitioning Suga to leave the group.

In vaguely related news, Jennie, a member of the K-pop girl group BlackPink, recently issued a formal apology after being filmed vaping indoors in Italy. In a Harper’s Bazaar feature, Jennie explains why she’d have to make such an apology: “What can I do? If Korean people think it’s wrong, I’ve got to make up for it… It’s like, I get why you guys are upset. It’s cultural, it’s history. It’s time. And I can’t go against time.” The life of a K-pop idol does not seem easy.
