Fifth statement after controversy over private life, including illegal filming,
\u201cWe will sincerely cooperate with the investigative agency and prove our innocence\u201d,
\u201cReflect on our immorality \u201cStrict action will be taken against false information.\u201d<\/p>\n

Regarding the police investigation into Hwang Ui-jo<\/a> (31, Norwich City), a Korean national soccer player suspected of illegal filming, Hwang Ui-jo’s side stated, \u201cDigital forensics is a normal investigative procedure and there is no additional video other than the leaked video.\u201d .<\/p>\n

Daehwan Law Firm, Hwang Ui-jo’s legal representative, issued a statement the previous day (27th), saying, “Forensic investigations are underway on the iPhone used by (Hwang Ui-jo). \u201cThis is a normal investigative procedure and there are no additional videos other than those leaked by the leaker,\u201d he claimed.<\/p>\n

This is the position of the police who announced at a press conference held on the same day that they had secured four mobile phones and a laptop belonging to Hwang Ui-jo, including two iPhones, and were conducting forensics. A police official elaborated at a press conference, saying, \u201cForensics of devices such as mobile phones and laptops used for illegal filming and distribution is the most basic investigative technique.\u201d<\/p>\n

Hwang Ui-jo’s<\/a> side responded to the controversy over ‘secondary harm’ due to the disclosure of part of the victim’s identity, saying, “We are keeping thorough security for the victim’s identity.”<\/p>\n

In addition, regarding the police’s announcement that they would summon Hwang Ui-jo to Korea to investigate if necessary, he responded, “I will cooperate faithfully with the investigative agency in the future and prove my innocence.”<\/p>\n

Hwang Ui-jo said, \u201cI am sorry for causing concern to soccer fans at home and abroad due to my personal life, and I will look back on my immorality and reflect on myself.\u201d He also added, \u201cWe will take strict action against continued secondary harm, dissemination of investigation status, unfounded malicious reports, false facts, and insulting posts.\u201d \u201cWe will deal with it,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

This incident came to light last June when a woman claiming to be Hwang Ui-jo’s ex-lover distributed an illegally filmed video from Hwang Ui-jo’s cell phone on social media. \uce74\uc9c0\ub178\uc0ac\uc774\ud2b8\ub7ad\ud06c<\/a> This woman was revealed to be Hwang Ui-jo’s sister-in-law, Ms. A.<\/p>\n

On the 16th, the police issued an arrest warrant for sister-in-law A on charges of violating the Special Act on the Punishment of Sexual Violence Crimes (threats and coercion using video footage, etc.), and then detained and transferred her to the prosecution on the 22nd.<\/p>\n

However, Hwang Eui-jo stated that she \u201cbelieves in his innocence<\/a>,\u201d including filing a motion not to punish her brother-in-law.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, a total of two victims of Hwang Ui-jo’s illegal filming charges were identified. It is known that additional victims other than those already known were investigated on the 18th, around the time Hwang Ui-jo was summoned as a suspect.<\/p>\n

Hwang Ui-jo played as a substitute in the second match of Group C of the 2026 FIFA North and Central America World Cup Asian region second qualifying round held in Shenzhen, China on the 21st (local time), then immediately returned to his team and is currently in England. \uc12f\ub2e4<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
