Amidst the many speculations that are taking place following Daesung’s car accident, Dispatch received the opportunity of interviewing the sole witness, taxi driver Kim (45), at the hospital.

Although he’s still being treated from the accident, Kim emphasized, “I have to correct everything that’s being wrongly reported.”

Various rumors arose after it was discovered that the motorcyclist’s vehicle was in decent condition, and therefore the rider couldn’t have been involved in an accident prior to his collision with Daesung. Kim, on the other hand, stated, “Hyun (the motorcyclist) was bleeding very much already. I think that there definitely was a very big accident that occurred before ours.”

Check out the full interview below.



Q. “At this time, the motorcyclist has deceased and the attention is now being focused on whether his death was caused by Daesung’s collision or not.”

Kim: “Daesung is also a victim in this case. It seems that the motorcyclist already received much injury from a previous accident. He was discovered 30m away from his motorcycle and you could tell how bad his condition was with the naked eye. There was a lot of blood where he was laying and his head was also bleeding profusely. Maybe its because of the shock from the impact, but his helmet was also nowhere to be seen. The police later discovered it, and, it too, was badly damaged.”

Q. “You checked for the condition of the motorcyclist but Daesung was unable to. Eventually, he passed Hyun and collided with the taxi.”

Kim: “There is a reason why Daesung could not have avoided Hyun. There was another car in front of Daesung. To put it simply, I put up my emergency lights after discovering the motorcyclist and stopping on the road. Just before I was about to call the police, another car discovered Hyun and swerved to the next lane. The car following him was Daesung’s. Although the first car was able to swerve and avoid an accident, I don’t think Daesung could see what was going on. Usually, when the first car swerves, the car behind it can’t catch what he’s swerving away from. Daesung was in that exact situation.”

Q. “Daesung testified that he did not see the motorcyclist.”

Kim: “Daesung did not know of the motorcyclist at all. He only knew once I told him that there was a person on the road. The car in front of him had swerved away so he didn’t have time to check at the scene.”

Q. “Daesung is currently being questioned for speeding and negligent driving.”

Kim: “I think he was within the 60km/h limit because the car in front of him was not speeding. This was what I observed with the room mirror in the taxi. They say that he was speeding at 80km/h during the investigations, but I feel that’s the speed he was at when he collided with the taxi.”

Q. “No skid marks were discovered at the scene. Does that mean his car only stopped after it collided with the taxi?”

Kim: “In my personal opinion, I think he accidentally stepped on the accelerator instead of the brake. There should have been skid marks, but there are none. Even after the collision, the taxi was pushed out 30m from where it was originally standing. If it was pushed to that extent, it means he did not brake. Even during the collision, I don’t think he braked, and it was most probably because he was nervous and shocked that he accidentally pressed the accelerator.”

Q. “Then if he wasn’t able to see the motorcyclist at the time of the accident, did he check afterwards?”

Kim: “Daesung did not have a chance to. Within 2 minutes of the accident, police arrived and he was taken for investigations. He did not know that there was a person at the time of the accident so I don’t think he knew to check. He only knew that there was a collision with the taxi. Immediately afterwards, a representative of his agency arrived, and he, too, did not see the motorcyclist.”

Q. “Did he look shocked?”

Kim: “There was so much going on. There was an accident and a victim was revealed. Within 10 minutes, journalists swarmed in. Since he’s a young celebrity, I think he was shocked. Even while being investigated by the police, his hands were shaking.”

Q. “The taxi was severely destroyed. Just looking at the taxi, you must have also been severely injured. How are you right now?”

Kim: “In comparison to the taxi being destroyed, I was not that injured. I think it was because I sensed an accident and prepared for it. The hospital said that I didn’t break anything, but I am receiving physical therapy for my shoulders, back, and neck.”

Q. “If Daesung is found to be unrelated to the death of the motorcyclist, that leaves only the issue of his collision with the taxi. The compromise will be important.”

Kim: “Daesung’s side has not begun a compromise yet. I have not received contact from them and we did not exchange business cards at the time. I do not want to reach a compromise at this moment, as I feel that the accident being reported truthfully is more important.”

Q. “As the sole witness, how do you feel?”

Kim: “It’s very disappointing. It was poor driving for him to not be able to see the motorcyclist and drive over him, but the situation is becoming severe in that there’s also the issue of a preceding accident and it’s unclear as to who caused it. This is why I mustered the courage to say something.”

Di tengah banyak spekulasi yang sedang berlangsung setelah kecelakaan mobil Daesung's, Dispatch mendapat kesempatan untuk mewawancarai saksi tunggal, sopir taksi Kim (45), di rumah sakit.

Meskipun ia masih dirawat dari kecelakaan itu, Kim menekankan, "Aku harus benar segala sesuatu yang sedang salah dilaporkan."

Berbagai rumor muncul setelah ditemukan bahwa kendaraan sepeda motor itu dalam kondisi yang layak, sehingga pengendara tidak bisa terlibat dalam suatu kecelakaan sebelum tabrakan dengan Daesung. Kim, di sisi lain, menyatakan, "adalah Hyun (sepeda motor) pendarahan sudah sangat banyak. Saya berpikir bahwa pasti ada sebuah kecelakaan yang sangat besar yang terjadi sebelum kami. "

Check out wawancara lengkap di bawah.

T. "Saat ini, sepeda motor telah meninggal dan perhatian sekarang sedang difokuskan pada apakah kematiannya disebabkan oleh tabrakan Daesung atau tidak."

Kim: "Daesung juga merupakan korban dalam kasus ini. Tampaknya pengendara sepeda motor telah menerima cedera banyak dari kecelakaan sebelumnya. Dia ditemukan 30m jauh dari sepeda motornya dan Anda bisa melihat betapa buruknya kondisinya dengan mata telanjang. Ada banyak darah di mana ia berbaring dan kepalanya juga berdarah deras. Mungkin, karena adanya shock dari dampak, tapi helm juga tidak terlihat. Polisi kemudian menemukan, dan, juga, rusak parah. "

T. "Anda diperiksa kondisi pengendara motor tetapi Daesung tidak mampu. Akhirnya, ia lulus Hyun dan bertabrakan dengan taksi. "

Kim: "Ada alasan mengapa Daesung tidak bisa dihindari Hyun. Ada mobil lain di depan Daesung. Sederhananya, saya memasang lampu darurat saya setelah menemukan pengendara sepeda motor dan berhenti di jalan. Sesaat sebelum aku akan memanggil polisi, mobil lain menemukan Hyun dan berbelok ke jalur berikutnya. Mobil mengikutinya adalah Daesung's. Meskipun mobil pertama mampu berbelok dan menghindari kecelakaan, saya tidak berpikir Daesung bisa melihat apa yang terjadi. Biasanya, ketika swerves mobil pertama, mobil di belakang tidak dapat menangkap apa yang dia menjauh dari swerving. Daesung berada dalam situasi yang tepat. "

T. "Daesung bersaksi bahwa ia tidak melihat pengendara sepeda motor."

Kim: "Daesung tidak tahu dari pengendara sepeda motor sama sekali. Dia hanya tahu setelah saya mengatakan kepadanya bahwa ada orang di jalan. Mobil di depannya telah berbelok jauh sehingga ia tidak punya waktu untuk memeriksa di TKP. "

T. "Daesung sedang dipertanyakan untuk mempercepat dan mengemudi lalai."

Kim: "Saya pikir dia dalam batas 60km / h karena mobil di depannya tidak ngebut. Ini adalah apa yang saya amati dengan cermin kamar di taksi. Mereka mengatakan bahwa dia ngebut di 80km / h selama investigasi, tapi saya merasa itu kecepatan dia di saat dia bertabrakan dengan taksi. "

T. "Tidak ada tanda selip ditemukan di tempat kejadian. Apakah itu berarti mobilnya hanya berhenti setelah bertabrakan dengan taksi? "

Kim: "Menurut pendapat pribadi saya, saya pikir dia sengaja menginjak pedal gas, bukan rem. Seharusnya ada tanda selip, tapi tidak ada. Bahkan setelah tumbukan, taksi itu didorong keluar 30m dari tempat itu awalnya berdiri. Jika didorong sejauh itu, itu berarti dia tidak rem. Bahkan selama tumbukan, saya tidak berpikir ia menginjak rem, dan itu sangat mungkin karena ia gugup dan terkejut bahwa dia sengaja menekan pedal gas. "

Q. "taksi itu sangat hancur. Hanya melihat taksi, Anda harus memiliki juga telah terluka parah. Bagaimana Anda sekarang? "

Kim: "Dibandingkan dengan taksi yang sedang dihancurkan, saya tidak yang melukai. Saya pikir itu karena saya merasakan kecelakaan dan siap untuk itu. Rumah sakit mengatakan bahwa saya tidak melanggar apa-apa, tapi aku menerima terapi fisik untuk bahu, punggung, dan leher. "

T. "Jika Daesung ditemukan tidak terkait dengan kematian pengendara sepeda motor, yang meninggalkan hanya masalah tabrakan dengan taksi. kompromi akan menjadi penting. "

Kim: "sisi Daesung telah belum dimulai kompromi belum. Saya belum menerima kontak dari mereka dan kami tidak bertukar kartu nama pada saat itu. Saya tidak ingin untuk mencapai kompromi saat ini, karena saya merasa bahwa kecelakaan yang dilaporkan sebenarnya adalah lebih penting. "

Q. "Sebagai saksi tunggal, bagaimana perasaanmu?"

Kim: "Ini sangat mengecewakan. Itu mengemudi miskin agar ia tidak dapat melihat sepeda motor dan drive di atasnya, namun situasi menjadi parah dalam bahwa ada juga isu kecelakaan sebelumnya dan tidak jelas siapa yang menyebabkannya. Ini adalah mengapa saya mengumpulkan keberanian untuk mengatakan sesuatu. "
