He had intended only to eat with his wife, but as they talked about their future, he ended up drinking, which had not been planned.

After finishing the meal, with the careless thought that his home was right nearby and that he had not had much to drink, he took the wheel while intoxicated.

While parking, he caused a collision with another vehicle, and through this the drunk driving in this case was detected.

■ Blood alcohol concentration of 0.2% or more: imprisonment for not less than 2 years and not more than 5 years, or a fine of not less than 10 million won and not more than 20 million won

■ Blood alcohol concentration of 0.08% or more but less than 0.2%: imprisonment for not less than 1 year and not more than 2 years, or a fine of not less than 5 million won and not more than 10 million won

■ Blood alcohol concentration of 0.03% or more but less than 0.08%: imprisonment for not more than 1 year, or a fine of not more than 5 million won
