The BBC reported on the 14th that Hwang Ui-jo was sentenced to two years of probation on charges of illegally filming sexual encounters with women.
BBC introduced that Hwang Ui-jo, who played for Norwich City and Nottingham Forest, also played for the South Korean national soccer team, but was suspended from the national soccer team in 2023 due to allegations of illegal filming.
He then explained what had happened over the past two years.
Hwang Ui-jo was put on trial in June-September 2022 on charges of illegally filming videos of sexual intercourse without the consent of the other party.
In June 2023, he filed a complaint with the police against his sister-in-law, who shared photos and videos of himself and women on social media, for threatening and other charges, but illegal filming was detected during the investigation. Prosecutors asked Hwang to spend four years.
The court "It is necessary to punish strictly given the seriousness of social harm caused by illegal filming crimes." "The crime is not good in light of the number of crimes and the details of the film, and the victim is suffering from considerable trauma and pain, and Hwang was not forgiven by the victim," he said.
However, he said he was sentenced to two years of probation in consideration of Hwang Ui-jo's remorse by acknowledging the crime, depositing a considerable amount of money, and the fact that the filming was circulated on social media due to the crime of a third party, but Hwang was not involved in the crime. He also ordered 200 hours of community service and 40 hours of sexual violence treatment lectures.
Hwang Ui-jo, who entered the courtroom in a black suit, "I'm sorry. I apologize to the soccer fans, and I'm so sorry," he bowed his head.
