These car accidents are beyond ridiculous! And if anyone thinks that these are minor incidents, they are mistaken. These injuries--whiplash, broken legs, etc.--will stay with them forever, and if they are doing all right now, fine, but complications will arise as they get older. I know of people in rehab for chronic pain from car accidents they had 30 years ago! Seriously, I wish the parents or managers of these actors would demand safer transportation.

@#1 Even if they did get safer transportation, it seems that the danger is still out there since it was _another_ car that hit them.

You're always hearing news left and right of such and such celeb getting into a traffic accident, and having taken transportation in Korea myself I can say that being in a car is a bit scary. I just hope nothing else happens to the cast and crew.

as much as i enjoy BOF (because of kim bum and kim so eun), i truly hope kim bum gets the proper medical treatment and the rest he needs in order to recover fully from both accidents.

Buckle Up... seat bealt! Use it.
Oy to the other wreckless driver. Wake up and smell your ass before you start your car engine. Dang it!
I hope He'll be fine and Please no more accident for the cast please! and other people too!

ggaaaah! don't anyone be hitting my kim bum's car from behind! stop getting the cutest f4 member in accidents or imma crack the shits.do you want woo bin to take over fake-sax-playing duties??? ..yeah, didn't think so. ;p

*exit, ghetto-me*

..i'm way asian, P. S. LOL :P

i was wondering...do they required seat belts in s.korea? it feels like i've barely ever seen stars wear their seat belts in those huge vans of theirs (when the camera follows them around)....

'cause if seat belts aren't required, they really should be :(

East of Eden producers are out to get them.
That is my conclusion.

wait, this was his 2nd?
poor guy. i mean, it's not his fault. thus the word "accident".
be safe dear kim bum.

@amanda: LOL. hahaha.

Oh mann! It's like everyone who's part of BBF is cursed!! D:
I hope none of the other actors get hurt or hurt again...

It must be really stressful for them...

LOL @Amanda

It is starting to feel like a big conspiracy.

I hope he gets the rest he needs although it's unlikely with the current filming schedule.

oh no!!! so many accidents! I will be praying for all of them to be safe!
Glad that kim bum is safe! but man.. he had to do stitches on his toe!

dramabeans, thank you for the news!

he reminds me of daniel radcliffe in the picture

Hire drivers, you fools, or get a taxi. Taxis are so reasonable in Seoul!

These guys are making millions (i think) off of these actors--give them CARS WITH DRIVERS who are awake.

Does Seoul not have an police? Shouldn't the manager's license be suspended for driving while this exhausted?? That's like driving while drunk!

poor him :(

OMG. i hope bummie is ok. they should rest honestly. get a break.
and it was his manager. honestly, its scary, someone's out to get them.
poor bummie. he should really get a day off and rest or something.
and the rest of the cast actually but since he had surgery and stuff its sure scary.
btw, im excited more now about the scene he was shooting. be safe guys. take care.

umm..i hope the manager will be smart enuf to not put his "talent" in danger and hire a driver!!! how can he drive when he's tired?! oh man.i hope they see these signs and be very extra careful and not push to hard until the next accident won't be minor anymore :-(

hey manager...pls hire a driver for your talent!

Seriously the production team should re-do the offering ceremony!!
And yes, kimbum or the other cast should hire somebody who can drive to change shift with his manager if he's tired to drive.

Not to rag on the manager, but he fails at his job. I'll be surprised if he weren't reprimanded by the management company.

Exhausted manager dozing off... I feel sorry for the guy. I hope he wasn't seriously injured?
Why don't they just hire a driver who's rested? Or take a cab? I mean, a manager's only human too, right?
But I'm glad to hear that only the car (and the rail) suffered fatal damage.

poor kim bum. i could be his driver anytime, he'll be safe and *ehem* his private NURSE too. lolz

my heart almost stop after watching the video showing the scene of accident. A stitched toe is nothing, could've been much worse...

I hope this would not stop the cast and I am sure the rising rating will be good encouragement for them to continue, despite of all the adversity. Fans all over the world are supporting them!!

geez...manager micro-sleeping?!?!?!that's so dodgy!!!...that guy cld be sued for negligence!!!..seriously...im sure they have enough money to hire proper drivers that are at least awake man!!! hope Kim Bum gets well soon!!!

The poor sleep deprived things. The BOF crew should hire people dedicated in the role of drivers for their cast (and managers) so that accidents would be minimalized. Sooner or later (knock on wood) it'll get much worse.

Yea I really wish they would hire drivers instead of having the managers drive because those guys are just exhausted...

Again?!? Jeez! Poor guy! Granted, it was a minor injury (I currently have stitches too so while yes, they're a pain in the neck, they're not super-painful), but dammit, give the guy a break. Filming with such a tight-schedule is nerve-wrecking as it is, imho, so adding the extra-stress of an injury can't do him any good. I can only sympathize. Aja aja fighting, Kim Bum!

I've heard that korean traffic is like hell... So it doesn't matter if you drive safe or not...

Maybe he just shouldn't drive anymore. That would solve everything.

lmao @ #8

seriously, i am worried for them.

question: how many personal staff would an actor/actress normally have?
is there another assistant who can attend to the actor/actress while the manager gets some shuteye *-* or why can't there just be another person whose main job is to drive the actors to and from location? :/

please stay safe BOF cast.

^
imo, if u are not that popular, my guess is that you start off alone, or with a manager. i mean, yeah, kim bum is VERY popular now, but he is not bae yong joon. but of course, some celebs like to just have one trusted person at their side, like a PA or something along that line. besides, it's the manager's job to make sure that his/her client goes to shoot on time, get back to rest on time, etc...i mean, if u are a celeb urself, would u want a whole team of ppl following u around?

besides, i think the asst would be more worn out than the manager. assts in the industry never get rest. it's always a long day filming, and sooner or later, the sleep deprivationwill get to u.

but yes, sleeping while driving is one of the most dangerous thing. people have died because of it. Thank God he only sustained minor injuries.

talking bout that, sorry that my comments seemed to be rounding around star's lover, just watched the latest, and boy oh boy, it's the same scenario.

"part of his leg was injured and the skin was torn"....OUCH! that doesn't sound too good. i agree...driving under the influence or driving while tired/sleepy is irresponsible b/c they're situations that can be avoided.

on a different note...am i the only one that noticed kim bum's big, manly hands in this picture? how sexy! :P

to #7: yeah, in Korea people in the backseat don't need to wear seatbelts.
AND OMG the traffic in korea is crazy

@bebo : haha ya i saw his hands too... the boy is growing up nicely... i can't get enough of the kid in BOF... he's totally the reason i'm watching... not that lee min ho isn't a hottie but kim bum is just too adorable~!!!

I saw the video clip with KimBum in accident (firefighters are required to record what happend to the scene since their rescue might disturb the evidences and stuff. and it was released for news) Two ambulance staffs were helping him to get out of the car and it looked like he was having trouble walking and standing up so They carried him into the ambulance.... gosh, I am so glad that his injury wasn't serious

you think it's time that these managers hire cab drivers...
the entertainment business is working them to the bone!

Omg, when I read the title I was afraid that Kim Bum had gotten into a huge accident.
I'm glad he only sustained minor injuries though. I hope he gets better soon so we can all see more Yijung and Gaeul moments lol.

KIM BUM BE WELL AND GET WELL**fighting**.**

javabeans, thanks for the update regarding kim bum's condition.

i hope he really gets time to rest and recover on the 9th and 10th.

HEHEH..............reaction to comment #8 -----> amanda
thats funny if they do such things to their own casts, as I know kim bum was partially acting in "EAST OF EDEN"
SO -------> your conclusion is wierd.........^^v

ugh! the accident vid was really not nice.

I don't think much of his acting but i seriously think that should not happen to anyone...was very nasty!

It probably happens because actors are so busy and always rushing around everywhere. But to tell you honestly there are more actors in car accidents in Korea then anywhere else around the world!

lol! dis is funny!

"East of Eden producers are out to get them.
That is my conclusion"

reaction to teehee comment #45:
