Korean teenage pop group Wonder Girls was caught in a car accident in early Friday morning.

The accident occurred around 1.20am (Sep 14) when the girls were on their way back to Seoul after a performance in Pusan. The girls suffered minor injuries, but the driver of the other vehicle (taxi) involved in the accident is unfortunately dead.

Contradict to the more glamorous and luxurious Western celebrities, Asian celebrities often have to work on a hectic schedule and a tight budget. Travelling at night is inevitable, and the drivers are often required to speed or might have overworked… thus the road accident rates involving Asian celebrities are quite high.
