It was just reported by local media OSEN moments ago that Daesung and the victim’s family reached a settlement over the car accident from last May. The exact details of the settlement were not revealed.
“Today Daesung and the victim’s family reached a settlement. The victim’s family expressed their desire to not have Daesung serve any punishment. They said they felt sympathy for Daesung and told him not to be agonized over the issue. The victim’s family also encouraged him to continue showing good performances,” an unnamed source was quoted as saying.
On May 31st, Daesung hit a motorcyclist who was lying on the street due to a previous crash that resulted from drunk driving. The motorcyclist was found dead when police came to the scene. Since the accident, Daesung has not made any public appearances, reportedly spending most of his time at home in extreme mental pain.
Following today’s settlement, Daesung is expected to speed up his recovery process as many fans anticipate his return to the K-Pop scene.
I am glad that part of this tragedy has been settled, one less thing to worry about thankfully. I’m glad the family is so supportive even when they’re going through hard times. Now all we have to wait for is the verdict and summoning of Dae. I’ll be praying!

That’s great! I breathed a sigh of relief from hearing this! It’s been on my mind every day what will be the outcome of this and this is a good sign of things to come. I’m glad they were able to meet again and talk and there are no hard feelings between the family and daesung. and that they actual wished him well. I hope he will take it to heart and make a recovery from the mental state he’s been in the last few weeks…and if possible I hope we can hear him sing again soon.
thank goodness they’ve finally reached a settlement. it’s nice to hear that the victim’s family is also concerned about our daesung’s well fare. this is the best news i’ve ever heard in weeks! i hope dae can get back to big bang as soon as he can :D
omg.. WHAT A RELIEF!!!
I hope this news doesn’t suddenly end up changing.
I think the family was obviously going through a very bad time in their grieving process when
they said those things from previous articles.
Although this is a relief.. I want a final and stable word from someone else as well.
DAESUNG FIGHTING!!
Finally! I really hope to see all 5 of them together real soon. I hope I won’t have to wait til next year.
OMOOOO !! Thanks god ! Thank you ;O;
Finally some good news,thank god!
I am happy the family said those kind words to Dae and I hope it will help him to recover from this big shock.The victims family,Daesung,YG,Bigbang and every single Vip, we all had such a hardt time.
Dae,we can’t wait to see you again soon.Please take care, we love you <3
Oh my god thats wonderful news! But im still wondering, since the family says they dont want to punish him, does that mean he wont be charged at all? or does the court handle that? But no matter what, this is still incredible news, glad to see things finally start to work out for our baby Dae, i hope things continue to improve!
I’m so happy the Dae Dae can finally start the process of healing. The victims family is so nice beyond words. I can’t wait until the day that Big Bang can be on one satge as a whole. ^^
Thanks god !!! Daesung comeback soon baby !
WOW less than 2 months and it a done del already, pretty impressive! With the turn around tone I am guessing they are more than monetaraly satified and really they seem to geniunely <3 Dae, but not YG! SO if my prediction is correct I bet we should be seeing by possible next year, and I am wondering if he will be included in the solo race!
YAY!!!!!!! I cant believe this is finally happening so fast!!! Im so so so freaking happy for our Daesung!!! Daesung get better soon! VIP will be waiting!! <3Daesung Fighting!!!<3
Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhh yaaaaaay!! That’s all I think needs to be said :3
Dae Dae feel better soon we all love and miss you.
Thank god !! Tears of relief !!! Thank you Hyng’s family for encouraged to Dae despite they’re living their own pain.
we will be waiting when you’re ready Dear Dae !!!
Thank God I’m happy now , dae i miss you
And people said the family only cared about the money,even said horrible things about the motorcyclist……I knew they couldn’t be so greedy and cold hearted,altough we’re not talking sums here but this definitely shows how they didn’t want anything, but to have inner peace,I hope Dae takes their word and makes a public appearance soon,I really miss him,and I’m so glad this whole issue has come to an end…
Expected to speed up his recovery process? Stuff is just paid off right now he probably still has to deal with thoughts of him being the reason a person died. Even If people told him he wasn’t, he was the one there and it’s still a traumatizing experience. I hope he recovers quick but he can take as much time as he really needs.
thank goodness something good came out at least :D i’m still kinda confused about the family’s attititude towards daesung from their last statements…but i hope daesung makes a recovery too and doesn’t rush into performances as he’s probably still traumatized…
OMGG IM SO FREAKING HAPPY RIGHT NOW =D!!! yess! now we vip’s need to make sure that when he makes his first public appearance from this we all show him alot of support and love!! ;) BIG BANG<33
I feel very relieved to read this article .. I have to thank everyone for giving such a good collaboration .. I want to Daesung oppa back into the industry .. I really miss him so much…i will wait until you have fully recovered ..go go go..Daesung..:)
IF THIS IS TRUE!!!!???!!!!
I’m crying now….overjoyed….relieved…..
THANK YOU, FATHER!!!
THANK YOU FOR ANSWERING OUR PRAYERS!!!
and thank you to the victim’s family….for understanding and letting go o>v<o
“Settlement”…aka “cashed in”.
Very very happy to hear that.
I want Daesung to know that we all support him and love him.
What will be the best way to let him know that?
Daesunggggggggggg
We all love u.
This is the best news I’ve ever heard. :) Seriously, I was in Bodhi Wishing Tree in Hong Kong’s Ngong Ping Village last week and has been praying with the monks about this issue and when I came back home, I saw this great news. Thanks Siddharta Buddha and God for hearing my wishes. If you really pray from the heart and want something, the universe will indeed conspire to make it come true.
It made my whole year and at least less to worry about Dae. At least they came to their senses that everyone is suffering already and it is too much for all of them to be scrutinized by the entire media. I wish both parties will gain INNER PEACE and STRENGTH TO MOVE ON and become happy people. It won’t be easy but this is will be a good start.
Dae-dae,
Wishing you good luck in the future.. The VIPs are always beside you (your right) at all times.. Remember that, dude.
[P/S: Don't Cry ;) ]
