Still a mystery to me why so many celebrities in Korea seem to not care about the dangers of drunk-driving when from the perspective of people living in Europe, for example, Korea has basically solved the problem of getting your car home with their substitute driver culture...I mean? How much easier does it get to NOT drive when you are drunk than that..?
