Even Lee, Chungnam Asan FC held a self-reliance report meeting at the end of December last year, and explained that “the lack of understanding of members and inappropriate responses caused damage to the dignity of citizens’ clubs, such as being’populated as if there was something wrong’ by the Congress and the media.” The embarrassment of the citizens reached its peak, and the press conference for the player controversy on the 4th was also flimsy.
(At the time, the press conference was not distributed without distribution of journalists’ questions and answers, and the press conference was embarrassing and flimsy.
First of all, Chungnam Asan FC delivered a late press conference to the media, saying, “This season, a total of 11 players including 3 foreign players were recruited and 15 players were released. We tried to recruit the best players on a limited budget.” The reason for self-confidence was to express the position of the club regarding recruitment of players Ryohei (27) and Lee Sang-min (22), which are controversial recently.”
“Lee Sang-min was sentenced to a suspension of 15 matches in the K-League and a fine of 4 million won for the federation’s disciplinary action due to drunk driving as a member of the club last year. The club itself took additional disciplinary measures such as suspension of participation in the 2020 season and reduction of the total annual salary. “The club finally recruited them after acknowledging their voluntary social service and reflection, the age group that meets the U22 compulsory participation rules, and extra efforts.”
“(Dating violence controversy) Ryohei was looking for an Asian Quarter player in November of last year, and was aware that there was a problem with personal privacy during the recruitment process, and the club itself confirmed the legal penalties and disciplinary content. “We confirmed that there were no separate legal penalties through the J-League and previous clubs,” he said. “There was no disciplinary action by the Japanese Football Federation through the J-League and former clubs, and we all confirmed in advance that there was no problem with Korean K-League player registration.
In addition, “The reason why Vegalta Sendai and J-League were not disciplinary is an individual case and an agreement with the victim was reached. “We had an offer for the Japanese sub-league, but we wanted to leave Japan, so we challenged Korea, and there were offers from other K-League clubs, but our club was finally recruited.” did.
Then he said, “I have the confidence to grow into a player who can help society correctly, and I will show you a positive image that can contribute to the society.” He promised to pay attention to policy establishment and player recruitment that would benefit the performance and community.”
However, due to a business trip to Seoul, the CEO was unable to attend the press conference, and the flimsy press conference with the chairman of the Asan Civic Organizations Council composed of 14 civic groups amid fierce controversy brought only fierce criticism. ‘It was a headwind.
The council issued an urgent statement saying, “We cannot resist deep disappointment and anger at the press conference.” He condemned, “I can hardly accept that he has justified his position.”
They said, “The club has consistently shown self-rationalization with excuses for recruiting a player who caused dating violence in Japan, and showed disappointment by disapproving of civil anger.” The player problem that caused it was also big, but it showed an unacceptable appearance in common sense,” he criticized.
Ryohei said, “It is known that he joined the K-League 1 revenge team at the end of last year as it became difficult to play in the J-League anymore, but all were excluded from the recruitment stage. The reason is the dating violence incident that caused social controversy. Because of this, even his dating violence has been reported to have caused several assault cases starting in 2017, not the first time last year.”
He said, “I can’t help but shocked and disappointed in the positive evaluation of a player who was virtually expelled from the Japanese soccer world due to continuous violence against women. “Which citizens will sympathize with the club’s behavior of revealing the position of “I will make it reflect” he asked.
Meanwhile, they said, “This coming 8th is International Women’s Day, and we cannot tolerate anyone who commits violence against women in Asan, a women-friendly city, but wants to change the country and continue playing as a player. “I ask you to apologize in front,” he said, “immediately cancel the recruitment of players released for violence against women, and the city should take strict measures in accordance with the ordinance stipulating the administrative supervision of Chungnam Asan FC, which recruited female violent athletes.” Urged.
