Taeyeon accident pt.47, Special Treatment Clarification via TaxiDriver,FireStation(again),Paramedics

[ggumd.livejournal.com]

Taxi Driver was interviewed by Dispatch:

Taxi Driver: “(The paramedic) told me to go and get treated but I didn’t go. I had to (deal with the accident)”

Interviewer: “(Taeyeon tapped on your shoulder…)”

Taxi Driver: “That’s not true. Who’s playing/joking."

They were asking him in regards to the “victim’s” SNS post that accused Taeyeon of tapping on the taxi driver’s shoulder as though they’re subordinates. The taxi driver said nothing of that sort even happened.

The taxi driver victim also said that there was no issue with Taeyeon’s behaviour.

Dispatched Rescue Member - “While I was checking Taeyeon's condition, the other crew members were also checking the conditions of the other patients. Taeyeon did not even get on the ambulance. She did not even get close/near to it."


Gangnam Fire Station:
When the paramedics get to the scene, they classify the patient(s). That means that they put the person that needs urgent help first. The other people said they had back pains and such, while Taeyeon complained of chest pains. We felt that was priority so we tried to transfer her first.
When we were done handling the accident, Taeyeon said she would go to the hospital on her own. She did not get in the ambulance. Then, another ambulance came and the two passengers in the taxi and the Audi driver were taken into separate vehicles to the hospital.

There cannot be special treatment. We did not try to transfer her to hospital first because she was a celebrity. It’s because she complained of chest pains. It was an emergency situation that needed to be handled first. In the position of an emergency worker, there aren’t ordinary people and celebrities. Even if it wasn’t Taeyeon, if a public citizen said they had chest pains, we would have made it so they were transferred first. There’s a limited number of paramedics. Because we have to get the urgent patients in the ambulance first, the situation seems to have gone the way it did. We aren’t sure how this [information] was delivered for there to be a controversy about special celebrity treatment. We don’t have any reason to do that.

“Although we did not transfer Taeyeon to the hospital using the ambulance, even if she is the first to be transported, it is not a “celebrity preference”. Do paramedics who deal with human life give preference to famous celebrities? That would be unfavorable. One more important thing is that there is no concept of an attacker or a victim in the “first aid” on an accident scene. It’s the same human life. It’s not about taking care of the “unfair victim”, but “the person with the most serious injury” is given priority."
"She said her chest hurt from the airbag deploying. She told us to check/take care of the others if they're hurt, saying she's fine."

Translation for video above:

they were talking about the “preferred treatment” based on the instagram uploader caption, and they also called gangnam fire dept to get their statement. https://t.co/E2pCu3Airb

the fire dept mentioned because they heard from other drivers that one of the victim complained of chest pain, they went to her first and didnt even know it was taeyeon. and she didnt even go near the ambulance. the discussion concluded that it was all just a misunderstanding.

This article delivers real account of Taeyeon's accident. The women in the taxi were actually the ones taken by the ambulance but they blamed TY to take it and receive preferential treatment. Pls upvote comments & the article so it can be seen by many.https://t.co/RzLti1U4I2 pic.twitter.com/01qwk1wkos

not a great year for tae. not a great year generally either.

[donaldjdrumpf.livejournal.com]

She's shown her ass to be trash so I'm going to think the worst

[ggumd.livejournal.com]

she’s nothing but a humble queen! any and all bad info about her is #fakenews, stop being bitter trump

[pourtant.livejournal.com]

lol mte, i don't even care about all the details of the post-accident because it's irrelevant and i'm not here for her rude, racist ass anyway

[ggumd.livejournal.com]

Lol if you’re not here for the “irrelevant details” i.e. facts then why are you in this post sis?

[pourtant.livejournal.com]

lol right, let me rephrase it: imo these details don't matter, nothing about them is worthy of so much controversy and they're not affecting (negatively or positively) my previous unfavourable opinion of her

[ggumd.livejournal.com]

still doesn’t answer why you’re in this post if none of this is worthy [2]

[pourtant.livejournal.com]

jesus i don't mean worthy of my attention, i mean worthy of people putting her on trial for it

[ggumd.livejournal.com]

Oh my bad! Lol

[pourtant.livejournal.com]

idk what possessed me to go mte-ing donald drumpf when i meant something else entirely lol

[donaldjdrumpf.livejournal.com]

Because you love me!!

[mjspice.livejournal.com]

I can't believe I'm agreeing with you

[donaldjdrumpf.livejournal.com]

Why... are you normally wrong?!? :D

[mjspice.livejournal.com]

Lmao well not really seeing as I'm right about you getting impeached soon.

[ebenetwo.livejournal.com]

Wait is tapping on the shoulder legitimately not okay in Korea?

[xxhna.livejournal.com]

I’m so confused about this whole thing. Why so messy. But in reality, complaints of chest pain are serious and should be addressed first amongst those other concerns.

[mewaqua1.livejournal.com]

just because taeyeon caused the accident doesn't mean she doesn't have any first aid rights like the victims?! also how dumb are people, chest pains = pain in surface of chest area OR damage at her heart and/or blood circulation, the OR is bc those two sensations of pain are delivered by the same neurons to the brain so it's important to act quick and check at the hospital which one of the two it is before in worsed case going into heartattack or cardiac arrest

and what's up with those lying victims? i understand rage and anger due to taeyeon's careless driving but how's lying about what happend gonna change anything or help them out with the case???

good thing at least people are speaking up, this issue shouldn't be about taeyeon's behavior after the accident or "celebrity treatment" but about the accident, careless driving, and i hope she and also others are reminded how horriblely this could have ended due to not driving with care or paying enought attention

wish her and the victims quick recovery both physically and mentally

[ggumd.livejournal.com]

Yeah ppl acting like she got preferential treatment are hilarious like this isn’t some little spat fam this is a legitimate car accident, but people are hard pressed at anything she does so it’s not surprising they are gonna sit here and believe a fake Pann account about the accident where somehow she was controlling what the paramedics did and ordering them around lol

like this is also the same community that thinks taeyeon is the ceo of sm and is the sole reason Jessica was kicked out so you’re not dealing with a bunch of ppl with common sense

[mewaqua1.livejournal.com]

i'm really astonished at how many idiotic comments taeyeon gets at legit everything she does it seems....what did she even do to make people feel so pressed at everything she does? like she hasn't got that much power to get preferential treatment nor throwing jessica out of the group and that should be v obvious if people are even mildly interested and notice how sm treats her, snsd and other sm artists, seems like a lot of people are just blinded by their hate (good thing taeyeon plans on sueing malicious comments)

[byeolbyeol.livejournal.com]

internalized misogyny or a personal dislike probably. taeyeon has done some shit in the past that warrants criticism for sure (and a lot of the faves of the people who dislike her the most have as well - it's a constant cycle, lbr) but a lot of the general dislike for her is rooted into biased translating that got into international fandom of past incidents. primarily the entire situation with jessica and the stuff with wiz last year - both which were situations where a lot was lost in translation / a lot of details were left out on each side.

the overall reaction to the accident on here is confusing me like it's one thing to be disappointed in her for being such a careless driver in that moment because it is disappointing, but she owned up to her mistake and hasn't tried to back track on anything. plus are people honestly upset that emergency services treated someone who complained of chest pains after a car accident? celebrity or not she could've had an internal injury on impact, like... you gotta check that shit out.

[mewaqua1.livejournal.com]

thanks for the info, i honestly didn't know how much went wrong with translations in the international fandom the the past,
that sucks (i've only started following her for 1,5 year now) but even reading your first section, i don't feel like she has done so much horribly wrong (if i were to compare her to others of the online community shitlist both of knetz and int-fan) for the amount of awful comments and insults she gets (personally i also feel like still quite a bit of her portion haters, at least on the k-netizens part not internationally as much, are those baekyeon haters despite them being broke up for a while now, i mostly say that as an former/casual exo-l it's still noticeable how much some fans HATED them)

i feel the same way, i really don't understand the rage of netizens online over the articles?? sure it didn't help that those victims lied about taeyeon getting celebrity treatment but now at least people should back off, i'm actually even surprised that the emergency staff let her go by car to the hospital (but it's also good thing, bc it probably meant it wasn't really too dangerous and hospital visit was only to confirm that and treat any other possible minor injuries)

[byeolbyeol.livejournal.com]

like with the exception of her alicia keys comment from back in 2009? i think (which gives black fans a good reason to not like her) she hasn't really done anything. she keeps to herself most of the time and most of the misunderstandings that involve her really do seem to stem from things getting lost in translation. but yeah. it's been years since her and baekhyun broke up and i still sense animosity linked to that which is sad because if you're gonna dislike someone for something that should ... not be the thing to dislike them for. dating? what kind of entitled bs, lol.

the entire thing is a mess, really. the vibe that i got was that the victims were still upset and said some untrue things that they took back? or clarified on later but everything was out by then and after antis and trolls find something good to sink their teeth into, true or not, they keep on going back to that. at this point everything going forward is going to involve her and the others involved in the accident on a private level so it's pretty much done publicly but netizens want to keep on dragging it out so they will. they'll even go as far as harassing the people involved to try and get dirt apparently lol

[mewaqua1.livejournal.com]

yup only that issue seems warrented for dislike, it's sad that she gets THIS much dislike/hate when she already keeps so much to herself :( the animosity still towards taeyeon/baekyeon couple, in the summer there was this article about baekhyun and for sure reason in the translated comments/netizens comments there was 1-2 about taeyeon, who legit had zero to do with the issue....like the fans basically already drove them apart (i'm at least convinced it played a role), can't they just stop now it's already over for so long?

yeah probably the victims felt very wronged at getting hurt and therefore took some anger out n taeyeon before realising that it wasn't the smartest move, thank god the issue will be handled privately likely from now on (as it kinda of should have from the start)

[byeolbyeol.livejournal.com]

it's so annoying? because it honestly seems like most people in korea have been over them dating for a long ass time - the only people holding on are bitter people from each side of the fandom and anti / troll netz. the dislike is still stronger from the i-fandom side in regards to their past relationship; people just don't wanna admit it. it's especially funny considering all of the people who think she's dating jonghyun right now. like people need to get over it. she's moved on obviously so they should too, lol.

mte. at this point it's just netizens wanting more dirt because none of the victims have said anything since the day after and taeyeon has been pretty silent since that day too.

[mewaqua1.livejournal.com]

mte! like c'mon it's way past time to move on from baekyeon, if taeyeon/jonghyun turns out to be true, i'm really gonna pray it will receive good response (it will also be interesting to see if our shawol fandom, mostly the k-fandom, has really grown up or not, i-fandom seems pretty okay with dating from what i've seen? or i just follow the shawols with similar thoughts about shinee as myself?), same goes if they are not dating but dating other people obviously as i massively support both to live well and be happy

it's really getting way too obvious that netizens too, not only i-fandom, only care for dirt on idols (and creating drama) and don't care about the truth or what's behind something/reasonings, i have no idea why they feel so good writing horrible things and judging idols so hard

[byeolbyeol.livejournal.com]

yeah. like i'm still up in the air about whether they're just really good friends or really good friends who're also dating and using that as an excuse to be able to be out in public sometimes together. i know that there's some k-shawols who're also fans of taeyeon but i'm not sure how they'd react. i-shawols who've been ... speculating it seem to be fine with it. it's strangely i-sones that're less into the idea, lol.

but riiiight. it's so annoying. i saw that the police released a final statement on the case (or it seemed to be pretty final) a few hours ago so i hope that'll be enough to quiet netz.

[sra-interesante.livejournal.com]

just the other day i was reading an article about those paramedics getting so much hate and feeling like they gonna lose their jobs because people keeps lying about how they behaved that night ....

yikes media messing up with everyone career here

[myungung.livejournal.com]

I'm actually surprised that a news programme (ish?) will cover the details of the accident. this has turned into an unwanted media circus sadly.

[pepsi-twist9.livejournal.com]

I imagine they'd have to for the paramedics sake as well, at this point government employees are being harassed too.

[mjspice.livejournal.com]

Whatisthetruth.gif

Also not here for people excusing her racism as "internalized misogyny" >_>

[byeolbyeol.livejournal.com]

lmao i know this is directed at me and that's not what i said at all. if you would've read my other comments i even made that obvious: if people dislike her for some of the racist stuff that she's done in the past that's completely warranted, but there's no way to deny that some of the dislike does stem from internalized misogyny and misogyny in general, specifically from people who aren't aware of some of the stuff she's done in the past (because plenty are). there's a huge amount of people who dislike her solely because they're living in a fantasy land about what has went down with snsd in the past or because she dated one of their male biases.

[rainstormraider.livejournal.com]

Damn.
Even a racist can't get medical help without y'all attacking her, K-netizens?
