When Ki Sung-yong (32, FC Seoul) denied the suspicion that he raped a junior in the soccer team when he was in elementary school, the following day, the informant refuted that “the evidence is sufficient and clear.”
Attorney Park Ji-hoon (Hyun Law Firm), the legal representative of the informants, said on the 26th, “We have sufficient and clear evidence (related to the allegation of sexual violence Ki Sung-yong)” through a press release.
He argued, “In order to protect the minimum personality of Ki Sung-Yong, it is a rule not to submit it to anyone other than the player himself or his club.
Earlier, in a press release on the 24th, attorney Park revealed that “the former soccer players C and D were continuously sexually assaulted by their seniors A and B in the year 2000 when they were elementary school students.”
At the time, attorney Park explained about A as’a star player from the national representative who recently joined a prestigious club in the metropolitan area’ and about B as an’outpatient professor at a parent university in Gwangju’.
The reason that lawyer Park said it would disclose the evidence is because Ki Sung-yong, who was accused of sexual violence the day before, completely denied the allegations.
Ki Sung-yong said on social media (SNS) the day before, “There is no need for long words. I posted a post saying that the content of the article reported on my football life has nothing to do with me.”
He said, “I bet on my football life,” he said. “I decided to respond strongly by mobilizing everything necessary for the suffering family.”
He then emphasized, “Everyone who made malicious comments on unconfirmed matters will also take legal action.”
Ki Sung-yong said, “I ran to this place with passion for soccer,” he said. “It wasn’t true, so I thought there was no problem, but I realized that it was a serious issue that threatened the lives of football and even the lives of my family.
He added, “I will not be left behind and will respond actively.”
Ki Sung-yong said through his agent, “There is no such fact at all,” and “I will take legal action”.
