Actor Go Kyung-pyo (36) has fallen from the ranks of variety show darlings to a “drunk driving nuisance male.”

His agency, CLE Company, stated on the morning of the 14th, “We deeply apologize to those who were harmed by Go Kyung-pyo’s drunk driving accident,” adding, “Go Kyung-pyo was driving under the influence in the early hours of today (the 14th) when he collided with a garbage truck. A breathalyzer test confirmed his blood alcohol concentration exceeded the level required for license revocation.”

The agency further stated, “Go Kyung-pyo has returned home after completing police questioning. He acknowledges his mistake and is deeply reflecting on it.”

They also said, “We are taking the seriousness of the wrongdoing of drunk driving very seriously, will humbly accept any future disciplinary action, and will fulfill our responsibilities, including making amends for the damage caused.”

The variety show industry has been thrown into an uproar over Go Kyung-pyo’s drunk driving controversy. Go Kyung-pyo was scheduled to appear on MBC’s “What Are You Doing?” segment “95 Seoul Music Festival,” airing that afternoon on the 14th. Moreover, he is a regular cast member of tvN’s variety show “Sixth Sense: B-Side.” Both shows happen to feature “National MC” Yoo Jae-suk, and Go Kyung-pyo has caused significant trouble for them.

Top actor Park Bo-gum has also been caught in the crossfire. Go Kyung-pyo had been announced as a new member joining tvN’s upcoming variety show “Bo-gum Magical 2,” set to premiere on the 29th. Given that he has caused a social controversy and full editing of his segments is now unavoidable, “Bo-gum Magical 2” faces a fatal risk even before its launch.

On top of this, there is OTT platform TVING’s new original variety show “Great Escape: Urban Legends.” With the first episode scheduled to be released on December 2, the production team is left with a headache due to Go Kyung-pyo’s drunk driving incident.
