Attorney Park Ji-hoon, the legal representative of those who claimed to have been raped by Ki Sung-yong (32, FC Seoul) in elementary school, suggested that the truth be covered in court.
Attorney Park Ji-hoon said on the 1st, “We propose to stop the wasteful public opinion war and cover the truth in court as soon as possible.” “The situation is pouring out speculative articles,” he said.
He said, “This situation is not only of no help in revealing the truth, and it is absolutely undesirable for the development of Korean football and even Korean sports.” I ask you politely,” he said.
As for the background of such a proposal, “(the parties) were not only minors at the time of the case, but the statute of prosecution was already completed, so it is impossible to file a criminal complaint by law.” It is virtually impossible to file a claim).
Attorney Park Ji-hoon said, “That is, what the victims wanted is a sincere apology from Ki Sung-yong.” “We have expressed our intention to sue or take any other legal action possible against the victims.”
It has been emphasized repeatedly that the facts will be clarified through court disputes.
He said, “The victims are hoping that Ki Sung-yong will file a civil and criminal lawsuit against them as soon as possible for an immediate resolution.” It will have to be revealed in court.”

The reason for the failure to disclose the secured evidence was insisted on the’protection of personal rights’.
Attorney Park Ji-hoon said, “We will provide evidence to Ki Sung-yong by the court (and investigative agency).” I hope you understand that it is difficult to disclose the data to the public.”
Ki Sung-yong held a press conference in person on the 27th of last month and said, “It’s completely irrelevant. I’ll be able to take legal action without mercy in the future.” I don’t know if it is,” he insisted.
