[Asia Economy Reporter Kang Joo-hee] Ha Jun-mom of the popular YouTube channel 'Beagle Couple' revealed that she was involved in a collision with a 25-ton truck but did not sustain serious injuries. Interest is growing in the vehicle she was driving at the time of the accident, the 'Volvo XC90.'


Currently known to be pregnant with her third child, Ha Jun-mom posted on her Instagram on the 19th, "I'm posting this because you might be worried. Four days ago, while driving on the highway, a 25-ton truck suddenly hit our car hard from behind," and shared photos of the accident scene.


The rear bumper and rear window of Ha Jun-mom's XC90 were all dented and shattered. She explained the situation at the time, saying, "My car was damaged so badly that it should be scrapped. It happened so suddenly that I don't remember the moment. When I came to my senses, Ha Jun was trembling and crying in fear, and I was bleeding heavily from my nose."


She added, "I was going to my maternal grandmother's house in my cousin's car, but as soon as I got in, I suddenly felt nauseous, so I urgently switched to my own car," and expressed relief, saying, "It was a miracle that I switched to my sturdy car due to sudden morning sickness, and it was also a miracle that Ha Jun, who usually only uses a simple car seat for 5-year-olds, was in the safest car seat that day, acting like a baby." Ha Jun-mom reported that aside from bruises, she was not seriously injured in the accident, and the children and Cutie (the nickname for the third child) who were with her were also safe.


The XC90 was also the vehicle involved when KBS announcer Choi Dong-seok and broadcaster Park Ji-yoon, a married couple, were in a head-on collision with a truck driving the wrong way last July. Despite the serious accident, the couple reportedly sustained only minor injuries, drawing significant attention to the safety of the XC90.



Meanwhile, the XC90 is Volvo's first sports utility vehicle (SUV), launched in 2002. The XC90 is especially regarded as one of the safest vehicles. The UK research organization 'Thatcham Research' evaluated the XC90 as the safest car model in the UK from 2009 to 2012, with zero fatalities in car accidents.
