The donation incentive, which recently became an issue at the National Assembly's Culture, Sports and Tourism Committee, was a controversial issue at the election site last year for Yoo's president of the Korea Table Tennis Association and the president of the Korea Sports and Olympic Committee. During the election for the chairman of the Korea Sports Council in December last year, the opposition candidate launched an offensive, raising suspicions of 'morality', and the Commission on the Promotion of Public Life filed a complaint against Chairman Yoo on charges of embezzlement and breach of trust related to 'contributions incentive'. The case was transferred to the western police station in Yongin, Gyeonggi-do, where Yoo's address is, and the police have been calling Yoo and witnesses for the past few months to investigate.
Immediately after Chairman Yoo's surprise election as chairman of the Korea Sports Council, a report on the same issue was received by the Sports Ethics Center under the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism. In April, the Sports Ethics Center found that the Korea Table Tennis Association's incentive payment of 10% of the lien was in violation of the rules of executives of sports organizations that `executives cannot be paid' and demanded disciplinary action against former and current executives and employees, and Chairman Yoo was punished 'takable' for negligent management and supervision.
In July, the Sports Citizens' Solidarity and Cultural Solidarity filed a complaint against Chairman Yoo on charges related to the same 'donation incentive'. There were reports that the financial crime investigation team of the Seoul Metropolitan Police Agency was assigned to the case and was conducting a reference investigation, and that the police investigation would be conducted by appointing Chairman Yoo on charges of breach of duty on the 28th during the audit. In particular, there were reports that there would be an investigation into whether Yoo received a borrowed name as it was reported that the younger brother of Yoo's agency, A, who was involved in attracting donations, received 200 million won in incentives. Chairman Yoo asserted his innocence at the parliamentary inspection on the 29th, saying, `If the allegations turn out to be true, I will take responsibility and resign"I hit Bae Soo-jin.
And on the 29th, the results of the investigation came out at the western police station in Yongin, Gyeonggi-do, the address of Chairman Yoo. All three charges, including 'Deliberation of Duty', 'Aid of breach of trust', and 'Aid of embezzlement', were decided against non-transference. In respect of dereliction of duty 'Crime not admitted' Aiding and abetting breach of trust and embezzlement in the profession were decided not to be charged and not to be sent due to the lack of evidence.
