Rapper Noel reportedly tried to change drivers after drunk driving incident.

The rapper, and son of politician Jang Je-won, was caught by police driving drunk in Mapo-gu on the 7th after he crashed into a motorcycle between 2-3 am. His blood alcohol level was at .08% at the time so his license got revoked.

According to Channel A, Noel wasn't injured in the accident but a friend/acquaintance that was in the passenger seat with him reportedly was. After questioning by police, he returned home that night.

Channel A is also reporting that Jang initially told police that someone else drove the vehicle at the time but reports are emerging that he tried to switch drivers. He also tried to make an agreement with the victims on-site shortly after the accident saying that his father was a member of parliament and will compensate them.

Police are looking into the alleged reports.
