(Seoul = Yonhap News) Reporter Hwang Jae-ha = The’Cha Bum-geun Soccer Class’ (hereinafter referred to as the soccer class) established by the former soccer team coach Cha Bum-geun filed a lawsuit for damages against a former coach who reported various corruptions to the media, but was defeated at the first trial. .
According to law enforcement officials on the 24th, Deputy Judge Kim Soon-han, who was solely responsible for the civil affairs 30 of the Seoul Central District Court, ruled against the former coach Nomo as the plaintiff loses a lawsuit for damages that the soccer class filed against the former coach, “Pay 50 million won.”
Mr. Roh posted on social media several times complaining that he did not receive severance pay from August 2015, when he retired after working in a soccer class for about 13 years, and did not receive severance pay from February of the following year.
In July 2016, a broadcaster who received a report from Mr. Roh released a broadcast exposing various corruptions in the soccer class. It was said that the soccer class did not pay the severance pay for Noh and other coaches, and sold the goods that were sponsored free of charge to the members.
In addition, salaries or bonuses for the driver and housekeeper working at the former coach’s home were paid in the soccer class, and that the soccer class received more tuition than promised when the soccer class was licensed to use a soccer field in Yongsan-gu from the Seoul Han River Business Headquarters. There was also.
The soccer class filed a lawsuit in October 2019, saying, “Even though Mr. Roh agreed to prohibit secret leakage and slander at the time of retirement, he maliciously distorted and leaked secrets learned during work by posting and reporting to the broadcaster.”
At the trial, the soccer class insisted, “Because of Mr. Roh’s slander, the soccer class was perceived by the public as if it were a hotbed of corruption and suffered losses that hindered social evaluation.”
However, the court dismissed the claim, saying, “There is no specific argument or proof of the plaintiff (soccer class) that the content of Mr. Roh’s posting is false.”
In addition, he said, “The plaintiff is a non-profit corporation that operates youth soccer classes. It is a public existence,” and said, “The act of posting by Mr. Roh does not constitute slander or defamation to the extent that it hinders the plaintiff’s social evaluation, or limits the freedom of expression. It does not escape,” he pointed out.
In particular, the court judged that the contents of the broadcast were “the whole report is true and is clearly related to the public interest.”
Meanwhile, Mr. Roh filed a lawsuit against the soccer class in March 2016, claiming severance pay, and was conclusively ruled in favor of “Pay 30 million won.”
The soccer class filed a civil lawsuit against Roh for embezzlement, but was defeated, and sued Roh to the prosecution on charges of defamation and embezzlement by publications, but was disseminated for’no charge’.
