'Hwang Ui-jo
(Seoul = Yonhap News) Reporter Kim In-cheol will attend the first trial of the alleged illegal filming'Hwang Ui-jo is heading to court to attend the first trial on the alleged violation of the Special Cases Act on the Punishment of Sexual Violence Crimes held at the Seoul Central District Court in Seocho-gu, Seoul on the morning of the 16th. 2024.10.16 The fate of Hwang Ui-jo (32, Alania Spor), who exploded a multi-goal three days before the first trial, has been decided over the year.
Judge Lee Yong-je of the Seoul Central District Court held Hwang Ui-jo's trial date on the 18th and postponed the sentencing date to February 14 next year. The defense resumed as the prosecution applied for a change in the indictment ahead of the first trial's sentence, and the sentencing date was delayed.
In June last year, Hwang Ui-jo filed a complaint with the police on charges of threatening netizens who shared photos and videos of women on social media claiming to be ex-lovers. However, during the investigation, Hwang Ui-jo's illegal filming was detected and he was converted to a suspect. Prosecutors indicted Hwang Ui-jo without detention in July for violating the Sexual Violence Punishment Act. He is accused of illegally filming sexual videos without the consent of the other party four times between June and September 2022. Two victims were found.
Hwang Ui-jo admitted all of the charges at the first hearing on October 16. The decision process proceeded immediately, and the prosecution demanded a four-year prison term. He also asked for an order to complete a sexual violence treatment program, to disclose and notify personal information, and to impose a five-year employment restriction order. However, Hwang Ui-jo claimed that Hwang Ui-jo was not guilty of secretly recording the victim during a video call based on the recent Supreme Court precedent that `the body image received on the mobile phone does not correspond to the act of photographing the human body and cannot be punished for violating the Special Act on the Punishment of Sexual Violence Crimes.'

In response, the prosecution applied for a change in the indictment by adding the allegation that Hwang Ui-jo did not reveal whether the victim was recorded or not, but had the victim filmed it. It also pointed out that Hwang Ui-jo deposited 200 million won in the name of a settlement to the victim before the first trial was sentenced. Criminal deposit is a system in which the defendant of a criminal case entrusts the settlement money when the victim's personal information is not known. The prosecution stated that the defendant deposited KRW 200 million after the conclusion of the pleading, even though the victim clearly stated that he had no intention of receiving and agreeing to the settlement"Please don't take it into consideration in favor of the sentencing." Prosecutors maintained their first sentence.
Hwang Ui-jo's lawyer said "It's not a wet deposit. The accused is sincerely reflecting on himself" countered. Hwang Ui-jo also apologized in his closing statement "Once again. I would appreciate it if you could give me leniency this time only." Two months ago, he said, `I offer a sincere apology to those who were affected by my mistake. I deeply apologize to everyone who cared for me and supported me for being disappointed by the misbehavior"I'll take this as a mirror and live my life as a soccer player without doing anything wrong in the future. This time alone, I earnestly ask for the utmost leniency."

Hwang Ui-jo led Alania Spor to a 3-0 complete victory in the 16th round of the Turkiye Schiffer League in the 2024-2025 season against Gaziantep on the 15th (Korea time), scoring two goals in the 38th minute of the second half. It was a short time, but the impact was strong. He swept his team's second goal in the 43rd minute of the second half, five minutes after he was put in, and the finale goal two minutes later. It is the first time in 49 days that Hwang Ui-jo has scored a goal since the match against Antalya Spor (1-2 loss) on October 27.
However, he is likely to be completely kicked out of Korean soccer. According to Article 17 (4), which stipulates the reasons for disqualification under the national soccer team operation regulations, the national flag cannot be worn unless five years have passed since he was sentenced to imprisonment or higher, or two years have passed since the end of the probation period.
In addition, Article 14 of the operating regulations of the Fair Committee of the Korea Football Association shall be subject to disciplinary action for cases of violence, sexual violence, and serious damage to dignity as an athlete. If you look at the disciplinary standards for each type, you can dispose of the highest level of disciplinary action for those who commit sexual violence, such as 'actions that cause extreme sexual shame, such as filming or distributing the crime process'.
