Previously on October 22, actor Jung Won Joon's vehicle collided with a delivery motorcycle driven by a 17-year old male, while turning left at an intersection. The motorcycle driver suffered severe injuries and was transported to the hospital immediately, but passed away before he could be transported via helicopter to another facility.
