Nam Taehyun returns to the entertainment industry by releasing new song 'RAIN' amidst drunk driving investigation
Nam Taehyun, who was sentenced to probation for drug use, has caused another drunk driving incident, and controversy has arisen as he resumes his activities in the entertainment industry by releasing a new song without any reflection.
Nam Taehyun was involved in an accident around 4:10 a.m. on April 27, near the Dongjak Bridge on the Gangbyeonbuk-ro in Seoul, where he crashed into a median barrier. At that time, his blood alcohol concentration was over 0.08%, which is the threshold for license revocation. This incident occurred during the period when he was sentenced to one year in prison with a two-year probation for drug use, and he had already been fined 6 million won in 2023 for drunk driving.
Despite these circumstances, Nam Taehyun released his new song 'RAIN' today at 6 p.m. on various music sites. This song features lyrics and music co-created by Nam Taehyun himself, expressing the pain and confusion of losing oneself over time from what he believed was love. He described the new song by saying it "calmly unravels the lingering effects of past relationships and the truth faced from them."
However, the public's reaction is cold. Netizens are criticizing him with comments such as "At this point, he doesn't even deserve to talk about a comeback," "He has squandered repeated opportunities," and "Releasing a new song without reflection is unacceptable."
Nam Taehyun had been preparing for a comeback after reflecting on his drug use charge, but he has lost the public's trust once again due to this drunk driving incident. In the midst of criticism, the public remains cold toward his determination to release a new song.
