A professional baseball player who was cleared of assault.

The controversy over the current professional baseball player of Team A, who was accused of assaulting his girlfriend, is expected to end with a simple incident.

A report on the 8th caused a stir in the baseball community. It was said that an incumbent professional baseball player was booked at the Gangnam Police Station in Seoul on charges of assaulting his girlfriend.

In fact, while professional basketball star Huh Woong's image as a professional player has fallen due to a battle to expose his personal life with his girlfriend, if the issue of 'date violence', which the public reacts sensitively to in baseball, a popular sport, is highlighted, there is nothing good about the all-time box office pace.

This is the case. It was the All-Star break, so Lee had a meal with his girlfriend and alcohol. The two got into a quarrel over their drunkenness and scuffled with their girlfriend who wanted to take a taxi home It happened that this woman fell.

When the quarrel failed to return home properly, an angry girlfriend reported it to the police, which was reported as an assault case.

Immediately, team A met with the player. The player claimed that he went to the police station, but he never assaulted him. At the same time, he said that his girlfriend had also contacted the misrepresented report first. Team A judged that the player's words were credible and decided to dispose of the player after the police investigation was over.

And the case is expected to end. The victim's girlfriend attended the police on the 9th. At this meeting, he clarified his intention that he had never been assaulted and did not want punishment. He also apologized for reporting to the police in anger. And the woman reportedly gave the player permission to disclose all of her police attendance to the media to see if the player who did not commit a big mistake would be damaged. There have been uncomfortable cases such as targeting a large amount of settlement money against celebrities such as sports stars and reporting to the police, but this was a happening that could really happen between lovers. And I even took courage for my boyfriend's player.

Now that it's like this, it's become meaningless for the police to investigate this player. The police were going to investigate the player after his girlfriend attended.

An official from club A said "I think the case will be closed without any incident under the circumstances. It is also ambiguous to discuss disciplinary action against players. It's not a problem to make personal appointments and drink during the vacation. It's not a serious date assault, but a happening due to misunderstanding, so I think it'll be sorted out as it is" he tipped off.
