DJ Management, the management company of Lee Hae-in (Korea University), has actively protected athletes through a press release ahead of the selection match for the figure skating national team in the 2025-2026 season.
Lee Hae-in will compete in the first round of the national figure skating competition, which will be held at Uijeongbu Indoor Ice Rink in Gyeonggi Province on the 30th and the 1st of next month. Fans are paying keen attention to the event as it is also a competition to qualify for the 2025 International Skating Union (ISU) Four Continents Championships, which will be held at Mokdong Indoor Ice Rink in Seoul in February next year. The final national team will be decided by summing the results of the first and second selection matches (all-round championships).
Lee Hae-in was given a three-year suspension by the Korean Skating Union for his junior player and 'affection during off-season training in Italy in May, but Lee Hae-in filed for an injunction to suspend the effect of the disciplinary action, and the Seoul Eastern District Court cited it, opening the way for the national team again.
DJ Management said in a press release on the morning of the 29th that `We sincerely thank Lee Hae-in for having a lot of expectations regarding his upcoming selection of the national team for the 25th and 26th seasons. I would like to tell you about the request for the report on Lee Hae-in, the actual facts, and the interview schedule related to the selection matchHe announced a series of positions related to Lee Hae-in's participation in the national team selection match. Below is the full text of DJ Management's press release.

1. "Pause"
I request to revise the expression that misrepresents the suspension of effect as a temporary suspension, and since this provisional injunction ruling is an important decision that denies and invalidates the effect of the disciplinary action, please write it as "Suspension of effect".
2. "Sexual sexual harassment charges", "unpleasant behavior" We ask you to refrain from provocative expressions. Since the court has left the possibility of innocence open, please write it down as "Affection Act" expressed by the court for the protection of player human rights and the nature of objective reporting.
3. continuity of events
I would like to inform you that the various events that took place during the training camp by Lee Hae-in are not consecutive events. I drank. engaged in an act of affection. The back differs in exactly different days, times, and places, but there are cases where you mistake it as a continuous incident. Let me tell you again that's not the case.
□ an arrangement of actual facts
Below, I would like to share the details of the request for the relevant report with the legal representative of the player, lawyer Seoon Kim Garam of the law firm.
1. "Lee Hae-in drank alcohol in his accommodation during the national team's off-season training in Italy in May and called in Lee Seong, a minor, to engage in sexual activity. As a result, the federation imposed a three-year suspension of qualification, and the article "It was confirmed at the retrial of the Korean Sports Council" is not true.
First, Lee Hae-in has never called the player to his accommodation while drinking. Of course, there is no love affair with the player while drinking.
Second, during the off-season training in Italy, all 10 players stayed at the same hotel. Lee Hae-in once called the player into his room to talk, but he never had a love affair with the player at the time.
Third, the Korean Sports Council has rejected Lee Hae-in's request for reconsideration, but no disciplinary action has been confirmed. As a result, the court was able to suspend the effect of disciplinary action.
2. It is not appropriate to say that Lee Hae-in's disciplinary action has been temporarily suspended or that his qualifications have been temporarily restored.
First, 'temporary' means 'short once' However, the effectiveness of the disciplinary action has been suspended until the main decision is finalized, and it may take years for the main decision to be finalized, so it is inappropriate to describe it as "short once".
Second, if Lee Hae-in wins the main lawsuit, the disciplinary action will become invalid. It is not appropriate to use the expression 'temporary' in the current state where it is unknown whether the player will be disciplined again or suspended again.
3. Lee Hae-in has never taken illegal photos.
First, it is completely different from the fact that Lee Hae-in filmed the act of affection with the player or made him film it through someone else. Let me make it clear that there is no fact that such an act has been filmed.
Second, in the case of the photo taken by Lee Hae-in, Lee Hae-in does not believe that the player who took the photo showed the photo to someone else and has filed a petition against the player.
□Interview schedule related to the selection of national team members for 2025-2026
We inform you in consultation with the players that Lee Hae-in will not conduct any interviews until Friday and Saturday as a way to focus on his best condition and game. Instead, I would like to conduct an interview on Sunday, when the selection match ends, regardless of the grade. We will notify you again in advance of the specific place and method.
