Hwang Ui-jo, former Nottingham Forest striker, has been given a one-year suspended jail sentence for filming sexual encounters without consent. He pleaded guilty, admitting to filming without the woman's knowledge on four occasions. The court emphasized the need for strict penalties for such crimes. Hwang expressed remorse and apologized to fans. The scandal arose from an attempted blackmail by his sister-in-law, who is now imprisoned for her actions. The case highlights issues surrounding consent and privacy in sports and society.
Considering the seriousness of the social harm caused by illegal filming crimes, it is necessary to impose a strict punishment, Judge Lee Yong-je said.
I personally apologise to football fans and genuinely feel very sorry, said Hwang, who was a reserve for Nottingham Forest before moving to Turkiye.
