As actor Ko Kyung-pyo caused a controversy with a drunk driving traffic accident, it was reported that a sanitation worker in his 60s sustained minor injuries.

According to a report by Yonhap News TV on the 15th, a sanitation worker in his 60s who was riding in the cleaning vehicle struck by Ko Kyung-pyo while he was drunk driving is known to have been injured. According to the report, the vehicle struck by Ko Kyung-pyo belonged to a private company that had an outsourcing contract with the district office, and it was determined that the company employee in his 60s sitting in the driver's seat suffered minor injuries, including complaints of pain. The sanitation worker reportedly has no significant external injuries but is scheduled for hospital treatment. The cleaning company's vehicle was also partially damaged in the accident.

Ko Kyung-pyo caused an accident by striking a cleaning vehicle while driving his personal car around 3:30 a.m. on the 14th in Donggyo-dong, Mapo-gu, Seoul. Immediately after reports of the incident, his agency CLE Company stated, "We deeply apologize to those who were harmed by Ko Kyung-pyo's drunk driving accident," and acknowledged the drunk driving, saying, "Ko Kyung-pyo caused an accident by colliding with a cleaning vehicle while driving in a state of intoxication early that morning. The breathalyzer test confirmed his blood alcohol concentration was at a level requiring license revocation."

They continued, bowing their heads, stating, "Ko Kyung-pyo has completed the police investigation and returned home. He acknowledges his mistake and is deeply reflecting on it," and added, "We are taking the seriousness of the wrongdoing of drunk driving very seriously, will humbly accept any future penalties, and will fulfill our responsibilities, including restoring damages to the victims."

Due to Ko Kyung-pyo's drunk driving traffic accident, MBC's "What Are You Doing?" (Nolmyeon Mwohauni), which was scheduled to air that day, edited out Ko Kyung-pyo from the broadcast and aired the program.

With injuries resulting from Ko Kyung-pyo's drunk driving traffic accident, controversy surrounding his criminal act is expected to grow even larger.
