According to Korean media, Kyuhyun was driving at around 5AM along Honam Expressway in Jeongeup in North Jeolla province in South Korea when the accident occurred.
Two versions of the accident were reported by the media. One was that Kyuhyun was changing lanes when he hit a truck. Another was that the truck hit Kyuhyun’s car instead.
Kyuhyun suffered bruises on his arms and legs and was taken to a hospital for treatment. As such, he was unable to perform as d’Artagnan, his character in the “Three Musketeers” musical held on April 8 at the Gwangju Culture and Art Center in South Jeolla province. He was replaced by actor Uhm Ki Joon.
After the accident, Kyuhyun tweeted “I’m sorry. I’m sorry” to his fans who were all worried and who flooded his Twitter account with get-well-soon messages.
The accident brought back memories to fans who remembered Kyuhyun’s serious car accident in 2007 together with other Super Junior members, which also happened in April.
Kyuhyun had been in a van together with Super Junior members Eunhyuk, Shindong and leader Leeteuk and managers when their car flipped. Kyuhyun suffered the most injuries including broken ribs and fractured hip. He fully recovered after several months.
