Former Nottingham Forest and Norwich City player faces four years in prison over filming illegal sex tapes
Former Premier League and South Korean footballer Hwang Ui-Jo is reportedly facing four years in prison after illegally filming himself ‘working out’ without the consent of his partners.
According to prosecutors in the South Korean capital of Seoul, the 31-year-old striker filmed encounters on four different occasions between June & September in 2022.
French outlet L’Equipe reports that the case against the forward emerged after his sister-in-law in fact posted the footage on social media. Hwang then sought to remove the videos & sued the sister-in-law for blackmail, with that suit successful & resulting in a sentence of 3 years.
On Wednesday he made his first appearance in court apologising for ‘disappointment’ caused by his actions. “I will not do anything wrong in the future & will do my best as a footballer.
I sincerely apologise to the victims who have been affected by my actions & I am deeply sorry for the disappointment I have caused to all those who have cared & supported me,” he told the court.
