The first trial of soccer player Hwang Ui-jo, who is accused of illegally filming himself, will be held next month.

According to legal circles on the 16th, Judge Lee Yong-je of the Seoul Central District Court Criminal Division 13 set the first trial of Hwang Ui-jo, who is accused of violating the Special Act on Punishment of Sexual Violence Crimes (filming with a camera, etc.), for Aug. 23 at 11:40 a.m.

Hwang is accused of filming videos or recording video calls of two women on multiple occasions without their consent.

He was also accused of committing secondary harm by disclosing personal information that could lead to the identification of the victims in a statement he made in November last year, but prosecutors dropped the charge, saying, “It is difficult to see that he disclosed personal information that could identify the victims based on the content of the statement alone.”

In June of last year, Hwang Ui-jo filed a police complaint against a netizen who claimed to be his former lover and shared photos and videos of him and the women on social media, accusing him of blackmail.

However, during the investigation into the case, police caught him filming illegally, and in February, they turned him into a suspect and sent him to prosecutors.

Four months after the case was sent to the prosecutor’s office, the prosecutor’s office called Hwang Ui-jo as a suspect on March 20, and on March 11, he was indicted on charges of violating the Special Act on the Punishment of Sexual Violence Crimes (filming with a camera).

His brother A, who exposed Hwang Ui-jo’s private life, was charged with filming with a camera and other charges under the Sexual Violence Punishment Act and was sentenced to three years in prison in the first and second trials. 파워볼사이트
