Soccer player Ki Sung-yong (FC Seoul), who is suspected of sexually assaulting his juniors in elementary school, is expected to take legal action against allegations soon.
Attorney Song Sang-yeop of Seopyeong Law Firm, the legal representative of Ki Sung-yong, released a press release on the same day and said, "The legal action to ask the other party's legal responsibility will be brought within 26 days."
Attorney Song did not disclose specific details, such as whether to file a criminal complaint or a civil suit.
Earlier, on the 24th of last month, Mr. C and Mr. D were exposed through lawyer Park Ji-hoon that they were sexually assaulted by their seniors A and B in January-June 2000 while they were in a soccer club at an elementary school in Jeollanam-do.
They didn't mention Ki Sung-Yong's name, but they could fully guess that Player A was Ki Sung-Yong.
As a result, Ki Sung-yong repeatedly announced that he would legally respond to Mrs. C and D by stubbornly claiming innocence by holding a press conference after the opening game of the K-League 1 in professional football on the 27th.
In addition, attorney Song urged to promptly disclose the'evidence' that Mr. C and Mr. D claim to be secured, proving that Ki Sung-yong committed sexual violence.
Attorney Song said, "C and D have said that they will be released in the court only if Ki Sung-yong has filed a lawsuit. This is a period in which Ki Sung-yong is suspicious until the trial is finalized over several years until the third trial. "It is aimed at the effect of getting longer."
He said, "If the'confirmation of evidence' claimed by the other side is true, the person who will suffer the most damage is Ki Sung-yong," he argued. "Since that Ki Sung-yong wants to disclose the very evidence, there will be no legal obstacle to revealing it." .
In addition, he repeatedly emphasized, "If there is a reason for a disability in disclosing'confirmed evidence' to the public, please tell me anything."
On the other hand, for the part where Mr. D cried and testified on the day before the MBC PD notebook that dealt with this case, attorney Song criticized "(The broadcast provided a biased view to the people)."
Attorney Song released a recording of Mr. D's call along with a press release, saying that he provided it to the broadcasting station, but most of it was not broadcast.
In the file, Mr. D made a statement to the effect that there was no intimidation and intimidation of Ki Sung-yong, or that attorney Park proceeded to disclose arbitrarily without asking for confirmation and consent.
This is part of the conversation between Mr. D and Mr. E, Ki Sung-yong's junior, on the 24th, when the incident was revealed.
Mr. C and Mr. D argued that at this point, Sung-Yong Ki had attempted a strong conviction through Mr. E, etc., while Ki Sung-Yong had never made a conviction, and Mr. E refuted that he tried to mediate himself without the request of Sung-Yong Ki.
