'Han-blee' sheds light on a traffic accident in which a vehicle struck two children aged 30 months and 14 months, along with their mother.

In the episode of JTBC's 'Han Moon-chul's Blackbox Review' (hereinafter 'Han-blee'), airing this afternoon on the 22nd, the program examines an incident where a vehicle directly hit two children crossing the street and their mother.

The released video shows the mother, who was crossing the road with her children, noticing an approaching vehicle and stepping back, only to be struck by the car. Furthermore, one of the children ended up trapped under the front wheel of the vehicle, prompting panelists to raise even more questions about the driving behavior of the offending car.

The production team meets directly with the mother, who is the victim, to hear in detail about the nightmare-like circumstances surrounding the accident. The whistleblower recalls, "While returning home with our two children aged 30 months and 14 months, a vehicle struck all three of us. The second child's leg was crushed under the car wheel, and we kept shouting 'Move the car' at the stationary vehicle."

The whistleblower added, "Later, after reviewing CCTV footage, we learned that the first child had also been hit by the car. Fortunately, there are no issues with the children's bones, but they are too young to undergo detailed examinations," expressing deep sorrow and further evoking sympathy.

Immediately after the accident, the perpetrator stepped out of the vehicle and claimed, "I was driving at less than 10 km/h." Not only did he offer this excuse, but the fact that he has not even apologized, let alone made contact, left the panelists unable to contain their anger.

Moreover, the accident occurred at a location without a crosswalk, and since the victims' injuries were classified as moderate rather than serious, it was revealed that the perpetrator would not face criminal prosecution, further fueling public outrage.

Seeing the children suffering from trauma, the whistleblower shed tears. The panelists comforted her, saying, "It is not your fault." Additionally, lawyer Han Moon-chul pointed out loopholes in the Special Act on Traffic Accident Handling and emphasized the need for improvements.

'Han-blee' also highlights drunk driving incidents that demand severe punishment. The released video shows a male drunkard strangling a female taxi driver on a highway and grabbing her hair.

The footage even captures the man following the whistleblower, who had pulled over to the shoulder and called the police, while shouting at them, leaving the studio in shock. Furthermore, it was revealed that the whistleblower is unable to continue working as a taxi driver due to trauma, adding to the sense of tragedy.

However, despite the perpetrator admitting to the charges and the Special Act on Aggravated Punishment for Specific Crimes being applied, the Prosecution Service issued a decision imposing only a fine of 3 million won, surprising everyone.

Meanwhile, comedians Lee Sun-min and Jo Hun will appear in this episode's broadcast. Lee Sun-min, who recently became famous as the driving instructor for Won-i, a member of the popular idol group Le Sserafim, and Jo Hun, who passed the comedian exam with top honors, are set to captivate 'Han-blee' with their unique chemistry and parade of personal talents. The episode will air at 8:50 p.m. on the 22nd.
