DBSK: Crash and Burn
54 CommentssLaVe in News | 20 Jan 2008 - 05:20 PM

22 year old Kim Jae Joong (a.k.a. Hero) and 20 year old Shim Chang min (a.k.a. Max) of DBSK were rushed to Gangnam Hospital after their vehicle collided with a taxi. The lead singer and the youngest of super band Dong Bang Shin Ki were on their way to the Seoul Olympic Stadium near Gangnam to attend their fan meeting.
This was the first time a DBSK fan meeting was delayed, but the boys are okay and the accident was not serious. Both Chang min and Jae Joong were able to walk away from the crash with only minor injuries. As soon as they were examined at the hospital, they rushed over to attend their fan meeting. The boys wanted to make sure they could make this meeting as it’s been a long time since they’ve formally met with their fans.
However, since their Japanese single (“Purple Lineâ€) made it in the top 10 Oricon Charts, they will be returning to Japan to perform additional promotional work. Their Korean activities are still being discussed and will be announced later - the good news is they are still working on their Korean comeback album.

see…this is why i fear korean fans. they were chasing the boys again bam…car crash…again.
you’d think they would learn. if they’re your precious oppas then stop causing situations that could get them killed.

I dont think the fans are chasing them because they are already in the fan meeting spot. It’s because the taxi driver. the korean taxi driver likes to drive with full speed and I think it’s became a habit to drive like that in korea

^ Dude tell me about it! Stupid psychotic fans! It’s one thing to obsess over them (like I do) but to chase after them when they’re in the car trying to avoid you .. is a whole ‘nother thing. It is way too dangerous for the artists! Obviously that’s why the car accident happen! I’m glad to hear that Changmin & JaeJoong oppa are doing well!! Dude seriously .. maybe it’ll teach the fans a lesson .. CHILL OUT!

No where in the article does it say that the fans were chasing the car the two singers were in. So, I wouldn’t go and make that assumption. I’m sure it was just bad driving and impatience that drove to the accident.
But yeah, I’m glad they’re OK. :0)

Yay. I’m glad they’re ok. It would be horrible if they were badly injured =( That would create so many problems with their group. Plus the fact that thousands/millions of fans will be sad because of the accident.

Glad they’re okay.
And this is totally NOT relevant to the article, but did Jae Joong really get caught with/smoking marijuana, and because of that, DBSK can’t come on any shows on KBS or MBC?

@jinny…it’s not in this article but this isn’t the only article reporting it. Fans worldwide knew what happened before it was reported here. No assumptions made…just commenting on what’s missing from this article. besides, it isn’t the first time. Not by a long shot. All fans know that the boys are chased by many many fans to and from events, airports, etc. Even if it wasn’t known that fans were chasing them, it would be a damn good guess. -__-

Jae Joong smokes weed? lmfao
I never thought any of these guys are perfect, hell no one is. And if he likes to get high let him lol. But hold on… I thought Jae Joong was 25 or 26 he is the oldest in the group. Max is 20, now, U-Know is 23 or 24… Whatever f*ck I’m not gonna try and figure this out lol.
But yea I’m glade they are ok

ch0sshi, where on earth did you hear that?
I am a crazy obsessed fan and I have never heard that one unless it’s like news that just came out TODAY…
If it’s true, I think it’s hilarious… I know Jaejoong is a big drinker though xD He doesn’t even get the Asian flush and holds his drink very well, according to a staff member!

^my mom read it in a newspaper and told me.. I honestly don’t give a shit, but I was just wondering if it was true or not..

^ I think he would face jail time if he were caught in that situation. I don’t think he would’ve been let off that easily. Drugs in Korea are supposively big nono’s.
@chikisomething. I know that fans chase after these celebrities all the time. But, I’m just saying, in this article it said nothing of that degree, so, to make that assumption… although it’s very common… doesn’t make it true. yanO? <3

Okay, I skimmed through the comments. I highly doubt Jae does drugs. Why? Because the rest of them would do it too. Especially if it is weed, a drug mostly used to share with everyone around. So if he’s doing drugs, the rumor should have it that all of them are. They seem pretty healthy to me. I’m pretty sure that the drugs would have killed them by now. These boys DO sing and dance- which is very exhausting. If all they did was sing and or play instruments, it’d be more likely that they do drugs and it’d be less obvious because they won’t be moving around much as opposed to dancing like DBSK does. Plus, there’s less pressure for these guys (less pressure is a lesser reason to relieve stress through drugs) it’s not like SM sings live all the time :eyeroll:

@jinny again: you seem to love skipping over the part where i said it is not an assumption. If i did not know for a fact that they were being chased and basing my statement totally on this article…then you would have a point.
as it stands i know fans were chasing them. i am not making an assumption; I am stating a fact. one that happens to not be included in this article. deal.

woah i hope jaejoong and chingmin are ok. wow i see alot here about jaejoongs using drugs. 1st off yes he did smoke (i dont exactly know what) but he has stopped because he knows it will ruin his voice. 2nd jaejoong also drinks and i dont think he has stopped that. he got charged with DUI a couple years back (forgot when) and couldnt perform or tour with DBSK for about a year or two. 3rd of some of you people who say you wont like jaejoong for smoking or drinking then dont call yourself a fan. there all human. they make mistakes givem a break -_-
and lastly i say a question jaejoong is 22 yunho is 21 but only about 10 days younger. xiah and micky are 21 too and chingmin are 20. and yes im a fan and a proud one, but not a crazy one. -love jaejoong- anymore questions feel free to email me at
