Dynamic of the car accident

On April 19, a little after midnight, Kyuhyun, Leeteuk, Eunhyuk, Shindong, and two managers were on their way back to their apartment after a session of KBS Super Junior Kiss The Radio. While they were on the highway, the front left tire busted as the driver was switching lanes and the van ran into the guard rail/medium on the driver's side and skidded for about 30M+. At some point, the momentum caused the van to flip over on its right side.

Kyuhyun was sitting behind the driver's seat, therefore he was the most injured out of all the members. So far, he has a broken foot, fractured hip, broken ribs, and facial scratches/bruises. The fractured hip is bleeding and his broken ribs have come down on his lungs. He has already gone through tracheal resectional surgery to improve his breathing. They made a 1-2cm incision in his chest and inserted a tube so he can breathe better. He was slipping in an out of consciousness, and couldn't really speak because of the shock. Doctors are speculating that he might have to be in the hospital for a few months.

Shindong was the least injured out of the members, and has managed to leave the accident with just cuts and bruises on his face and body. He has been released from the hospital as a patient. There is no word whether or not he has returned to the apartment yet.

Leeteuk had glass shards in his back, and has had a successful surgery to remove them all. He also had a scratch near his eye and various cuts and bruises.

Eunhyuk was also reported to have glass shards in his back, and was said to have stitches.

So far, Kyuhyun is resting because his chest isn't healthy enough to go through surgery. He was transferred from the ER to the ICU. For now he has been given medication so he can rest for surgery.

Regarding schedules, all activities involving these four members have been cancelled. More specifically, MBC Popopo, on which Shindong is an MC, has been cancelled for now. Super Junior T was scheduled to perform on KBS2 Music Bank, but that was cancelled. Kyuhyun was planned to appear in a show filming, but because of his injuries, the network is having a meeting regarding that. Since both DJs for KBS Super Junior Kiss The Radio are injured, they have recruited other Super Junior members to take over temporarily. On the 19th, Ryeowook and Sungmin will DJ. Any date later than that is to be determined after Leeteuk and Eunhyuk's full diagnoses are released. Most likely, other members will be asked to rotate in as DJs.


SM released an official statement saying that the hospital needs to observe Kyuhyun for 3-5 days before releasing a confirmed statement about his health. They also said that Leeteuk has scratches on his forehead and near his eye from the glass. The accident was caused by a deflated left front tire. The driver was trying to switch lanes but lost control and collided with the guard rail.

Further details on the situation on the spot...

At the time of the accident, from witness that saw it, the car suddenly began moving about dangerously, crashed into a gurad rail and overturned.

This witness said, "On midnight of the 18th while driving by chance I shared the road with a large van. At the intersection where the road separates going to Yuh Ee Do and Ban Po, the van suddenly started weaving dangerously. And then soon after it crashed into a guard rail."

"It surprised me so I stopped my car and ran towards the van. I was shocked when I saw ShiN Dong and the other members. Minus Shin Dong all the other members had collapsed. It also seemed the managers were also very much injured. One of them especially seemed like he was not in a good state seeing he had passed out. I found out later on that that was Super Junior member, Kyu Hyun."

The witness adds on, "Sooner after the police and ambulance arrived, and took care of those that were injured. It was so sudden I sdfsdf"

Super Junior's Kyu Hyun, Lee Teuk, Eun Hyuk, Shin Dong, these 4 members were involved in a car accident due to a tire popping.

They were on their way home after the live show "Super Junior's Kiss The Radio" on KBS Radio Cool FM.

Kyu Hyun who is known to be in the worst condition, is currently being attended to at Seoul Kang Nam ** Hospital. It is known that the injury on his chest is severe. The other members, Eun Hyuk, Shin Dong, and Lee Teuk were being treated for minor injuries at Sam Sung Clinic.

KANGIN'S SAD BECAUSE HE HAS RECEIVED CALLS FROM EVERY MEMBER IN THE ACCIDENT EXCEPT KYUHYUN

About the boys...

- KYU HYUN HAS SURPASSED ALL DANGEROUS SITUATIONS!
- Kyuhyun is out of a critical situation, but they still need to watch over him for 2-3 days
- the other members should be FINE within 2-3 weeks
- they say Kyuhyun is conscious right now but has NOT communicated with anyone (including his parents, managers, doctors, whoever)



For now Kyu Hyun the member that was in the worst condition in the large scale accident of Super Junior, has finally overcome the most crucial and dangerous moments.

A SM Spokesperson stated to the reporters on the 19th, "As of now Kyu Hyun has been moved from the emergency room to the ICU. Although he has overcome the most cucial moments, we must still watch how he is doing for the next 2-3 days. The other members should be alright in about 2-3 weeks. There's no need to worry too much."
