Ki Sung-yong (32, FC Seoul), who was controversial over sexual violence as an elementary school student, started in the opening game of the K-League 1 (first division) in the 2021 season, but was replaced by injury without finishing the first half.

Ki Sung-yong played in the opening game of the HanawonQ K League 1 2021 against Jeonbuk Hyundai at the Jeonju World Cup Stadium on the 27th, wearing a captain’s armband, but was replaced by Han Chan-hee in the first 36 minutes. According to a Seoul official, there was an anxious feeling on the side of the thigh muscles.

On this day, Seoul coach Park Jin-seop included Ki Sung-yong on the starting list. Ahead of the game, coach Park said, “There was no such thing at all” to the question,’Do you have any conversations about the (sexual violence) issue in advance?’ I didn’t.”

Ki Sung-Yong’s first round of K-League’s first round of interest was the biggest concern. In a press release on the 24th, Ji-Hoon Park of the Law Firm said in a press release on the 24th that he was “sexually assaulted by seniors” from those who played soccer in an elementary school in Jeonnam in 2000. .

In response, Ki Sung-yong’s management company C2 Global denied the allegations and announced a legal response. The day after the revelation, Ki Sung-yong also denied suspicion of sexual violence by saying, “I bet my life in football,” to his social network service (SNS). Attorney Park once again insisted, “It is an immovable fact that Ki Sung-yong committed a sexual assault crime”, and Ki Sung-yong’s side refuted, leading to a truth battle.
