While Ki Sung-yong, a former national football player, strongly insisted on his innocence in relation to the recent suspicion of sexual violence, those who exposed the suspicion for the first time continued to fight the truth, saying, “The evidence is sufficient and clear.” He changed his position of “I want to stop the workshop now” in one day.
Reporter Lee Jung-chan’s report.
Attorney Park Ji-hoon, the legal representative of the revelation party, released a press release again today (26th) and repeatedly asserted that “It is true that Ki Sung-yong committed sexual violence.”
“We have enough clear evidence,” he said, leaving open possibilities for disclosure.
Attorney Park said in a call with SBS that “Ki Seong-yong’s side has secured a transcript of the phone call containing the circumstances that they tried to lodge the exposer.”

Earlier, two days ago, soccer players A and B claimed that they were sexually assaulted by two seniors a year, including a star player from the national team when they were in elementary school. After claiming innocence and taking a hard-line response, I changed my position, saying,’I want to stop the truth battles’ within a day.

But overnight, he reversed his position again and emphasized,’I wish the perpetrators a sincere apology.’

On the other hand, he acknowledged the facts and sincerely apologize to the victims for the allegations that the revelators were perpetrators of school violence in junior high school years, but drew a line that it was not the essence of the case.
