“I took the courage to tell the world the truth, thinking that a victim like me should never happen again.”
When the former national team coach Cho Jae-bum, who was accused of habitually sexually assaulting the women’s short track national team player Shim Seok-hee, was sentenced to 10 years in prison, Shim made such a statement through his attorney.
Immediately after the sentence, Sim said, “I hope this ruling will help the victims somewhere in our society to speak up a little bit.” Sim said, “I sincerely hope that a similar incident will never come out in the future,” and “I will do my best to fully unleash my skills as a short track player by focusing on skating in the future.”
Sim’s lawyer Lim Sang-hyuk also said, “It seems that the main prosecution has been 100% acknowledged, and I am fortunate about that.” “Sim was investigated for 6 months and tried for 1 year and 6 months to revive his memory. I was in pain, but I am glad that this process was acknowledged.”
Attorney Lim said, “The prosecution’s sentence is 20 years in prison, but the sentence is 10 years and 6 months. Compared to the social impact or damage of this case, it seems to be very low.” I hope” he said.
