-Over 0.2%? Wow.

-0.2% is insane.

-As expected, being world-class comes with extraordinary numbers.

-Suga is at the top, truly world-class.

-Maybe because he's world-class, the scale is different.

-Topping the charts with drunk driving, congratulations.

-How much do you have to drink to reach 0.2%? This is record-breaking. Will he write a song about this too?

-Lizzy got hit with a huge fine. Did she damage property or something?
ㄴI found out she hit a taxi. In May 2021, while driving near the southern intersection of Yeongdong Bridge in Cheongdam-dong, Gangnam-gu, Seoul, Lizzy caused a rear-end collision with a taxi ahead of her. At the time of the accident, Lizzy's blood alcohol level was 0.08%, a level that results in license revocation.

-As expected of a superstar, on another level.

-Lizzy is the only female idol on the list?

-2PM has two members who got caught drunk driving.

-At 0.2%, aren't you basically alcohol itself?
