Nam Tae-hyun opened the door of his parked vehicle while waiting for a chauffeur at the time of drunk driving. In the process, a taxi passing by the car door collided. The accident damaged the right side mirror of the taxi, but it was reported that it had agreed with the taxi driver. Since then, Nam Tae-hyun has reportedly moved the vehicle about 20 meters behind the wheel.

According to the police, Nam Tae-hyun took the wheel to move the parking spot at the same place. The police concluded that Nam Tae-hyun drove under the influence of alcohol and handed the case over to the prosecution. At the time of detection, Nam Tae-hyun’s blood alcohol concentration was 0.114%, which was found to have been revoked.

In addition to the drunk driving charges, Nam Tae-hyun is also under investigation for violating the Narcotics Control Act.

Nam Tae-hyun made his debut in the music industry in 2014 as the group Winner, but left the team after two years. He has since led the band South Club. He was not active as a singer, but was caught up in various rumors and became a hot topic. In particular, at the same time as his public relationship with singer Jang Jae-in in 2019, it was controversial due to the “two-legged situation.”
