The Athletic, a global sports media outlet, detailed the story of Hwang Ui-jo, who fell to the bottom of the pile after being accused of illegal filming.

The Athletic, which is operated by the New York Times, published an article titled “The Shocking Story of Hwang Ui-jo. Allegations of Undercover Sex Films, Blackmail, and Family Fraud,” the New York Times published a relatively detailed account of Hwang’s downward spiral.

Billed as “the kind of story you’d expect from a Netflix crime documentary,” the outlet described the story as “a blackmail plot, leaked sex videos, family fraud, and an international soccer player who went from victim to accused. The player plays for Nottingham Forest and is preparing for a pre-season match in Spain.”

“Hwang Ui-jo, who played 62 matches for the South Korean national team, was charged by prosecutors in Seoul last week with filming sex with two women without their permission on four separate occasions between June and September 2022,” the article explained, ”He has been suspended from the national team since November last year and could face up to seven years in prison if convicted.”

“The court case is scheduled to begin next month,” the outlet quoted the women’s lawyer, Lee Eun, as saying, ‘and it’s only part of a story that includes one criminal trial and ended with one of Hwang’s family members going to jail,’ adding that the case has ‘deepened the national debate in South Korea over the issue of ’molka,’ the secret filming of videos for sexual purposes.”

The media then reviewed Huang’s career. “Hwang Ui-jo has denied that he broke the law. He played in every match for South Korea at the 2022 World Cup in Qatar and has been playing internationally for nearly a decade,” it said. ”He joined Nottingham in the summer of 2022 from Bordeaux, who had been relegated from the French top flight, but spent the last two seasons on loan at four other clubs, including Norwich City in the second tier, and never made his official debut for Nottingham.”

He then came under scrutiny after a video was released by a social media account claiming to be his ex-lover. “The person who posted the video claimed to be one of Hwang’s ex-lovers and accused him of having relationships with numerous women, gaslighting them, and secretly filming them having sex without their consent,” the outlet said.

“UJ Sports, Hwang’s management company, described the claims as ‘baseless rumors and sexual insults’ and hired a lawyer to take action against the anonymous 해외 카지노 사이트 account. In a statement released through his lawyer, Hwang said, ‘I have not done anything illegal, the post is baseless, I don’t know the person who shared it, and the person is a criminal who insulted me and threatened me using private footage,’” the article continued, explaining how Hwang responded.

But there was a twist. The alleged ex-lover turned out to be Hwang’s brother-in-law. “Once the police began investigating, a series of notable clues were uncovered, which turned out to be not one of Hwang’s ex-partners, but his brother-in-law,” The Athletic notes, noting that the investigation took a surprising turn.

“After an eight-month investigation, Hwang was notified last week that he was charged with violating the Special Act on Punishment of Sexual Offenses. The Seoul Central District Prosecutor’s Office considered filing a second indictment against Hwang and his defense attorney for leaking information that could identify the first woman in the video, but ultimately decided not to pursue further charges.”

His club, Nottingham, also weighed in. According to the outlet, Nottingham felt that everything had unfolded in a way they could not have imagined, and while they are aware of the situation, they have decided not to take any action at this stage.

However, Huang’s future is unclear. “He’s an option, but it was clear before everything happened that he didn’t have a real future,” the source said, adding, ”At the moment, Nottingham are paying his wages and have a player who could attract the attention of potential buyers. Nottingham are trying to figure out what to do next,” explaining that Huang had been labeled as a release asset from the start.
