Moon Da-hye, the daughter of former President Moon Jae In, who caused a collision while driving a car under the influence of alcohol, attended the police.

It has been 13 days since the drunk driving was caught, and the police are expected to comprehensively look into the behavior of the day of the accident, including the amount of alcohol and the details of the accident.

I'll connect you with a reporter. Reporter Lee Hyunjung!

[Reporter]

Moon Da-hye appeared at the police just now, right?

[Reporter]
Yes, Moon Da-hye appeared in the annex of Yongsan Police Station behind me at around 1:40 a.m. a while ago.

Thirteen days after the drunk driving was caught, he attended the police for the first suspect investigation.

Moon Da-hye headed into the building, saying, "I'm sorry for the reporters' questions," leaving only a short statement that she would be investigated sincerely.

Instead, I left an apology.Mr.

Moon said he is deeply reflecting on himself and sincerely sorry to the driver and his family, that he will reflect on himself and live so that he will never have to worry again in the future.

Moon is accused of hitting a taxi while driving drunk with a blood alcohol concentration of 0.149% in Itaewon, Seoul, at around 2:50 a.m. on the 5th.

In addition, suspicions have emerged that the media has violated other traffic laws as well as signal violations and illegal parking.

With reporters flocking from early hours, the police are expected to ask Da-hye about her overall track record on the day of the accident, including the details of the drunk accident.

What is the issue of the police investigation into Da-hye?

[Reporter]
Yes, as the taxi driver injured his neck in the accident caused by Da-hye, the victim's doctor and whether to submit a medical certificate are expected to be a major variable in this investigation.

The victim, who was investigated by the police on the 9th, reportedly accepted Da-hye's request for agreement and did not submit an injury certificate.

Without a medical certificate, the police have no choice but to have difficulty proving that Da-hye hurt the victim.

Therefore, if the two sides have already reached an agreement, additional charges such as "dangerous driving injuries" that hurt people by driving while driving while it is difficult to drive normally may be treated as simple drunk driving.

[Anchor]
What is the expected level of punishment?

[Reporter]
Yes, as I mentioned earlier, there is a high possibility that it will end up with a fine without applying additional charges such as dangerous driving injuries.

The charge of dangerous driving is established when driving a car while it is difficult to drive normally due to drinking, etc.

If the charges are applied, they can be sentenced to up to 15 years in prison, but most of them are fined if they are punished only for violating the Road Traffic Act.

In addition, illegal parking or violation of signal instructions is an administrative disposition that imposes fines, not criminal punishment.

The investigation is expected to last about an hour and a half.

I will tell you again as soon as the details of the summoning investigation are confirmed.

So far, I'm Lee Hyun-jung of YTN at Yongsan Police Station in Seoul.
