Hwang Ui-jo, accused of illegal filming - controversy over national team qualification → Scored his second goal at Norwich and gained the manager’s trust
Norwich won 1-0 in the 17th round of the 2023-24 season championship (second division) against Queens Park Rangers (QPR) held at 00:00 on the 26th (Korean time) at Carrow Road in Norwich, England. Norwich, who had broken their four-game losing streak and recorded a 3-2 win against Cardiff City, continued their winning streak with today's win and ranked 13th.
Hwang Ui-jo scored for the first time in a long time. Hwang Ui-jo, who left Bordeaux and moved to Nottingham Forest, was immediately loaned to Olympiakos and worked together with Hwang In-beom. He failed to seize the opportunity, left Olympiakos, and came to FC Seoul to improve his physical condition. Hwang Ui-jo, who returned to Nottingham, played the preseason, but was not trusted by coach Stephen Cooper.
Went on loan to Norwich. Norwich was once coached by David Wagner, who led Huddersfield Town by storm in the Premier League (PL). Coach Wagner left Schalke and Young Boys and has coached Norwich since 2023. Norwich had Josh Sargent and Jonathan Rowe, but strengthened the front line by recruiting Hwang Ui-jo. Before the QPR match, Hwang Ui-jo had appeared in 11 Championship games, including 5 as a starter and 6 as a substitute.
His first goal came against Sunderland. He recorded an assist against Birmingham City, scoring his first offensive point since joining Norwich, and the first time he scored against Sunderland. Despite Hwang Ui-jo's goal, Norwich lost 1-3. In an interview after the game, Hwang Ui-jo said, "It was a tough game and we lost in the end. We have to try to do better. We need to be calm and move forward with that. I will do my best, prepare well and recover well. I scored my first goal at Norwich. "I am very happy. I waited for this goal, but the result was not good. I will try to score more goals," he said.
Afterwards, Hwang Ui-jo, who also played in matches against Blackburn Rovers and Cardiff City, returned to Korea to be called up for the international match in November. He played in games against Singapore and China and even scored a penalty kick (PK). A big controversy broke out after Hwang Ui-jo's performance. It was a privacy issue that had existed before, but Hwang Ui-jo's status was changed to a suspect, causing a huge issue.
It started in June. Woman A posted a video on social media along with revelations about Hwang Ui-jo's private life and said, "I am a woman who previously met Hwang Ui-jo. When he acts as if he is in a romantic relationship with the other person, he sleeps with her and avoids establishing a relationship because he has to go abroad again. “He gaslighted countless women. I don’t know how many more victims there will be in the future,” he claimed.
In response, Hwang Ui-jo's side completely denied the content. UJ Sports, Hwang Ui-jo's management company, said, "Today, we confirmed that groundless rumors and sexual slurs were spread regarding Hwang Ui-jo's private life, and immediately afterward, we contacted the person responsible for creating and spreading unfounded rumors. “We are requesting an investigation and monitoring it,” he said.
At the same time, "We declare that all content currently uploaded through SNS is not true, and we plan to take strong legal action against the spread and dissemination of the player's illegally acquired personal information, which has tarnished the player's reputation. We confirmed. “We strongly condemn the harm caused to players by false facts and leaks of private lives, and we will take strong action against the reckless spread of rumors.”
The video starts with a stolen cell phone. 'UJ Sports' claims that Hwang Eui-jo's cell phone was stolen and hacked while he was living in Europe. Hwang Ui-jo's side claimed, "This is a video contained in a personal cell phone that was lost in Greece in November 2022."
Hwang Ui-jo's side immediately appointed a law firm and prepared legal procedures. Law Firm Jeongsol said in a press release on June 29, "We clearly state that the person who impersonated Hwang Ui-jo's ex-girlfriend is not Hwang Ui-jo's ex-girlfriend, and is a criminal who threatened the player and defamed the player's reputation." He said, “Hwang Ui-jo is feeling extreme mental pain and devastation.”
