SUPER JUNIOR: APRIL 18th ACCIDENT
I know it's probably late bu here it goes anyway....
On April 18th after coming home from a Kiss the Radio program, four members of the Super Junior group, Shingdong, Leeteuk, Kyuhyun, Eunhyuk, and two managers were involved in a car accident when the driver of the vehicle believed that one of the tires was deflated and attempted to change lanes, but lost control of the car. The van ran into the guard rail/medium on the driver's side and skidded for about 30M+. At some point, the momentum caused the van to flip over on its right side.
Kyuhyun was sitting behind the driver's seat, therefore he was the most injured out of all the members. He had a broken foot, fractured hip, broken ribs, and facial scratches/bruises. The fractured hip was bleeding and his broken ribs have come down on his lungs. He has already gone through tracheal resectional surgery to improve his breathing. They made a 1-2cm incision in his chest and inserted a tube so he can breathe better. He was slipping in and out of consciousness, and couldn't really speak because of the shock. Doctors are speculating that he might have to be in the hospital for a few months.
Shindong was the least injured out of the members, and managed to leave the accident with just cuts and bruises on his face and body.
Leeteuk had glass shards in his back, and had a successful surgery to remove them all. He also had a scratch near his eye and various cuts and bruises. When they found out how serious his injuries were, they had a plastic surgeon stitch him up. He got a total of 170 stitches on his face and his back. They're trying to avoid leaving any scars, but Leeteuk might have to have more surgies later on to remove scars.
Eunhyuk was reported to have glass shards in his back, and was said to have stitches.
Regarding schedules, all activities involving these four members have been canceled.
Police reports said that the driver blamed the accident on a flat tire, but investigations showed that the tire was fine and in actuality the driver had been speeding.
Later the other members is back to their schedule. Both Eeteuk and Kyuhyun are recovering quickly than the doctor expected. Eeteuk was discharged from the hospital on April 30th (3 PM, Korean time). Everyone was shocked that Kyuhyun is healing so quickly that the doctor said he doesn't need any surgery or operation. Kyuhyun will be dicharged from the hospital on July-August. CITED AT WIKIPEDIA!!!
But they say that Shingdong, Leeteuk, and Eunhyuk are okay now but are still resting...However, Kyuhyun is still unconscious... And is still kinda using the breathing to help him breath easier...Hope he feels alright and can regain his consciousness... Fighting!!!! 3nodding
