Tablo and Tukutz hit by drunk driver
by | May 19, 2008 | 15 Comments

Yikes. Another celebrity car accident?

This time it’s Tablo and DJ Tukutz who were in a car collision that left the car “half wrecked.” The two were riding in a taxi at 3am on May 20th in Seoul’s Kangnam neighborhood and were rear-ended at an intersection where their taxi was waiting to make a left turn.

The driver of the car that collided with them was driving drunk. The trunk of the taxi was completely wrecked and all the windows shattered; Tablo and Tukutz were both admitted to the emergency room, received treatment and released, but both were readmitted to the hospital later that day.

Tablo described feeling “severe pains” in his lower back and neck. The X-ray taken that morning showed no particular injury so he was released to get back to work, but because of continuing pains, he made the decision to return to the hospital to get another checkup. Tukutz suffered from similar symptoms, and their work activities were canceled for the 20th and 21st.

Best of luck for speedy recoveries.

    Holy crap, I think my heart stopped when I saw the title. It’s horrible how so many accidents are happening! I am really glad that they are alive though. I hope there is nothing seriously wrong with them. Maybe it’s whiplash? I don’t know what that’s like, but I’ve heard it’s pretty bad.

    why does it always seem worse when accidents happen to celebrities? they seem so vulnerable to me for some reason :( hopefully they’ll have a quick recovery..

    Really, now? Tsk. Tsk.

    Hope they could recover fast.

    Don’t drink and drive. It’s not even a lesson anymore. It’s common sense.

    WHAT!? I can’t believe another car accident has happened. Is it just a coincidence that all of these Korean celebrities are involved, or is it a result of lax transporation/road laws?

    Oh nooo… :( I have to agree, it’s a pretty oddly large number of celebrity car accidents in a couple of years, especially considering it’s a small country.

    I hope they get well soon. Are the roads that dangerous in Korea?

    Hope that they get well soon too.
    And that these accidents stop happening. Driving a car or even riding in one seems like the “hand of doom” now. Aish.
