According to police and others on the 14th, Lee Sang-young hit another vehicle on the back bumper at around 6:14 a.m. on the road in Hadaewon-dong, Jungwon-gu, Seongnam, Gyeonggi-do.
Lee Sang-young reportedly left after confirming his ID to the victim’s car owner, a man in his 50s, and promising to deal with the accident later.
However, the car driver later suspected Lee’s drunk driving and reported it to the police, who reportedly contacted Lee and called him to a rest area in Icheon to check whether he was drunk driving or not. As a result, Lee was found to be drunk and driving.
At the time of detection, Lee Sang-young’s blood alcohol level was found to be at the level of revocation of his license, but the police returned home at the time because Lee Sang-young had no intention of concealing an accident such as a hit-and-run.
Upon learning that Lee Sang-young was caught drunk driving, LG immediately reported the information to KBO Clean Baseball Center. Lee Mi-deum, a second-tier pitcher born in 2000 who was in the same age as Lee Sang-young, will also be investigated for aiding and abetting drunk driving.
Lee Sang-young’s disciplinary action against him is likely to result in disqualification for at least one year as a player. According to the KBO’s sanctions on drunk driving, suspension of a driver’s license is subject to a suspension of 70 games, cancellation of a driver’s license is subject to a one-year disqualification, five-year disqualification for two drunk driving cases, and permanent disqualification for three or more drunk driving cases.
Lee Sang-young, whose blood alcohol concentration came out with a license revocation figure, is expected to be disqualified from a one-year player by the KBO.
In the case of “aiding and abetting drunk driving,” there are no separate sanctions, but the level of disciplinary action will be determined through the reward and punishment committee.
LG said, “After confirming the facts about Lee Mi-um, who was accompanied by Lee Sang-young, who caused a stir by drunk driving, we reported to the KBO Clean Baseball Center and decided to humbly accept the results of disciplinary action by the KBO reward and punishment committee in the future.” “Despite the continuous education and special attention and request for social responsibility and attitude as a professional baseball player, drunk driving has caused unsavory incidents that violate the law and disappoint fans. The club is deeply aware of the responsibility for managing the team once again.”
Meanwhile, Lee Sang-young, who received LG’s nomination in the second round of the 2019 rookie draft, pitched in eight games in the first division this season with one loss and an earned run average of 3.31 without a win, and Lee Mi-eum, who received LG’s nomination in the second round of the 2021 rookie draft, played one game with an earned run average of 15.75 without a win. The two players are the same age as each other born in 2000.
