'Han-blee' covers the story of a taxi driver who suffered indiscriminate assault by a drunk passenger and then experienced a secondary accident while trying to escape the vehicle.

In the episode of JTBC's 'Han Moon-chul's Blackbox Review' (hereinafter 'Han-blee') airing on the 29th, the story of a taxi driver who was subjected to indiscriminate assault by a drunk passenger will be highlighted.

The released video shows a drunk passenger in the back seat hurling insults before violently attacking his companions with a Daejeon-style move and even assaulting the taxi driver. Shockingly, it also captures a secondary accident where the taxi driver, who had exited the vehicle to avoid the assault, got caught in the door of a reversing car and was dragged along.

The production team meets the taxi driver who suffered the assault. The whistleblower explains the urgent situation at the time: "While looking for a place to stop the car due to one-sided assault, I glanced at the drunk passenger after feeling like my ear was being torn off, and he attacked me with a Daejeon-style move."

The driver further recounted that they thought they had shifted the gear into 'Park' (P), removed their foot from the brake, and stepped out, only for the car to start reversing. "The car door got caught on my chest, and I was dragged about 7 to 8 meters," they said, adding, "I felt like I was going to die, so I twisted my body to escape." They revealed this terrifying moment where their life was even threatened.

As a result of the accident, the whistleblower underwent surgery to insert metal rods after breaking their collarbone, yet the perpetrator claimed, "I don't remember because I was drunk," sparking public outrage.

Even more shockingly, while the police classified the incident as a 'traffic accident' rather than assault, the taxi insurance company refused to process the claim, labeling it an 'accident caused by assault.' This forced the whistleblower to pay all repair and medical costs totaling 7.2 million won out of pocket. In response, lawyer Han Moon-chul clarified the compensation scope and countermeasures available to the wronged whistleblower, stating that the drunk passenger must not only compensate for damages but also pay a separate criminal settlement fee.

Additionally, an absurd incident that occurred in a parking lot will be revealed. The video shows a confrontation between the whistleblower, who visited a university hospital for medical treatment, and a woman who was holding a parking spot while standing there.

The whistleblower further stated that after parking in the designated spot, the opposing woman screamed, knocked on the window, and even demanded an apology.

Ultimately, the whistleblower was able to receive medical treatment with police accompaniment, but panelists were shocked when footage showed the woman waiting for over 20 minutes in front of the blackbox-equipped vehicle.

Meanwhile, Hanwha Eagles cheerleader Ha Ji-won and comedian Shin Gyu-jin will appear as supporters of 'Han-blee' in today's broadcast. Ha Ji-won is set to present a special cheerleading performance that will fill the studio with excitement. The episode airs at 8:50 p.m. on the 29th.
