Former Nottingham Forest star faces FOUR years in prison

Hwang Ui-jo spent time on the books at both Nottingham Forest and Norwich City, making 18 appearances last season for the latter before moving to Turkiye and Super Lig outfit Alanyaspor.

The South Korean forward has also had spells with Olympiakos – also owned by Forest’s Evangelos Marinakis – and French side Girondins Bordeaux.

However, as per reports from French outlet L’Equipe, Hwang is now facing the prospect of spending four years in prison after it was revealed he had filmed s3xual encounters with two of his partners.

According to prosecutors in the South Korean capital of Seoul, Hwang filmed encounters on four different occasions between June and September in 2022.

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, and sued the sister-in-law for blackmail, with that suit successful and resulting in a sentence of three years.

Yet the case against Hwang continued as he had filmed the videos illegally and without consent.

On Wednesday he made his first appearance in court in the South Korean capital, apologising for ‘disappointment’ caused by his actions.

‘I will not do anything wrong in the future and will do my best as a footballer,’ he told the court.

‘I sincerely apologise to the victims who have been affected by my actions, and I am deeply sorry for the disappointment I have caused to all those who have cared and supported me.’

The prosecution in the case has reportedly sought a four-year sentence for the player, and appears to be unconvinced by the sincerity of Hwang’s remorse.

‘Hwang may have admitted to the charges now, but his previous denials cast doubt on whether he is truly remorseful,’ the prosecution said.

‘One of the victims refused to plea bargain and asked for a severe sentence.’

No details were provided of the women who appeared in the videos without consent, given the illegal nature of their being recorded.
