The twin sisters Lee Jae-young and Lee Da-young (25), who have been suspended indefinitely from their team’s Heungkuk Life Insurance due to suspicion of school violence (hakpok), and their national team qualifications indefinitely, are unlikely to become leaders in the future.
In a call with Yonhap News on the 16th, Cho Yong-gu, secretary of the Korean Volleyball Association, said, “Athletes who are found to be abusive assaulters have’reasons for disqualification’ even when they acquire the leadership status.” It becomes,” he said.
Secretary-General Cho explained the reasons for the disqualification of the leader on the phone connection with CBS Kim Hyun-jung’s news show this morning.
Not all abusers can become leaders. However, in order to obtain a leadership qualification, the’academic history’ is subject to tremendous deduction.
Jae-young Lee and Lee Da-young, who admitted the mistake of the school, and Myung-geun Song and Gyeong-seop Shim (above, OK Financial Group) in the men’s division, are difficult to serve as leaders of the association’s affiliated organizations.
In addition, the Volleyball Association decided to indefinitely deprive Song Myung-geun and Shim Gyeong-seop of national representatives.
“The association is seriously looking at the matters of Lee Jae-young, Lee Da-young, Song Myung-geun, and Shim Gyeong-seop. The news of Lee Jae-young and Lee Da-young’s indefinite deprivation of the national team’s qualifications was mainly delivered, but the two male players are also representative players, I can’t run.”
“Lee Jae-young and Da-young Lee are the main players of the women’s volleyball team. The departure of the two to the national team preparing for the Tokyo Olympics is a big blow to the national team.” ‘This is the time when a firm message is needed. After hard work, I decided to discipline myself,” he added.
Sisters Lee Jae-young and Lee Da-young were surrounded by suspicion that they assaulted a colleague in middle school. The two admitted the mistake and posted an apology. Heungkuk Life Insurance suspended the two of their qualifications indefinitely.
Song Myung-geun and Shim Gyeong-seop, respectively, are accused of committing harsh acts by their juniors during their high school and middle school years. The two told the club, “In the sense of self-sufficiency, they will not play in the remaining games this season,” and the club accepted. The timing of the return of Song Myung-keun and Shim Gyeong-seop has not been decided yet.
Online, there are suspicions of abuse of other players besides the four players who have already admitted to the mistake. The Volleyball Association is struggling to prevent a recurrence.
Secretary General Cho Yong-gu said, “We are preparing to launch the’Sportsman’s Rights Center’ within the association. We plan to create an organization dedicated to school violence, sexual violence, etc. to provide prevention education and follow-up measures.”
