Her agency Gold Medalist said on the 1st, "First of all, we apologize for causing concern about Kim Sae-ron", adding, "We have not received the results of the blood collection test from the police. If the investigation schedule is set according to the test results, it will be faithfully received. Once again, we're sorry".

The Gangnam Police Station in Seoul was notified of the results of Kim Sae-ron's blood collection test by the National Forensic Service the previous day. The blood alcohol concentration exceeded 0.08%, which was the level of license cancellation. The police are coordinating the attendance schedule for Kim Sae-ron and her passenger, and will send her to the prosecution after further investigation. Kim Sae-ron is known to have appointed a lawyer.

On the 18th, Kim Sae-ron crashed into guardrails and trees along the street several times while driving in Cheongdam-dong, Gangnam-gu, Seoul.

As a transformer broke down due to the accident, the electricity supply to 57 nearby stores was cut off for about three hours.

At the time of the accident, Kim Sae-ron tested positive for a breathalyzer test, and refused to measure the blood alcohol concentration, so she returned home after a blood collection test at the hospital.

Kim Sae-ron dropped out of the SBS drama "Trolley" which was about to be filmed soon. The Netflix series "Bloodhounds" which has finished filming Kim Sae-ron, has not dropped her out yet, but it is discussing whether she will be edited or released.
