A fencing academy run by former national fencer Nam Hyun-hee allegedly failed to report a coach’s sexual assault to the Sports Ethics Center or investigative agencies in time.According to a report by Yonhap News Agency on the 26th, a complaint was filed with the police in July, alleging that Mr. A, a coach working at Nam Hyun-hee International Fencing Academy in Gangnam-gu, Seoul, had sexually abused two underage students for several months.Mr. A reportedly made the extreme choice to leave the academy in early July, a few days after the complaint was filed, when the sexual assault allegations became public knowledge.About three months later, on July 10, the Center for Sports Ethics received a similar complaint. The Center is investigating further allegations that Nam Hyun-hee, the head of the private academy, was aware of the problem and did not take sufficient action.According to the center, Nam did not report the sexual abuse at the institute to the relevant authorities in a timely manner.According to Article 18 (4) (2) of the National Sports Promotion Act, coaches, athletes, and other “athlete management personnel” defined by the Ministry of Culture, Sports, and Tourism decree must immediately inform the Sports Ethics Center or an investigative agency if they are aware of any human rights violations, irregularities, or suspicions in sports.

According to the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism decree, the reporting obligation is imposed not only on coaches of athletic organizations affiliated with the Korean Sports Federation, but also on operators of private academies.The center has not received any communication from Nam Hyun-hee or the fencing academy about the sexual abuse.Nam Hyun-hee was recently at the center of controversy when she gave an interview to the monthly magazine Women’s Chosun in which she revealed that she was getting married to her “boyfriend,” Jeon Cheong-jo.Mr. Jeon, who also participated in the interview, was described as a third-generation chaebol, an equestrian who retired due to injury, and a young businessman.However, soon after the interview was published, allegations of false gender, fraudulent convictions, and impersonation of the third tycoon arose.In fact, a court ruling confirmed that Ms. Jeon, who used to be a “woman,” had committed repeated fraud by pretending to be a man or the illegitimate son of a corporate chairman.When Nam Hyun-hee informed him of their breakup, Jeon went to her mother’s house and was arrested by police on suspicion of stalking on the 26th, but was released after investigation.

Jeon is also believed to have been heavily involved in running the fencing academy.In an interview with Women’s Chosun, Jeon said, “I worked with Nam Hyun-hee at the fencing academy, so I saw her often (recently).Nam Hyun-hee explained Jeon’s specific duties at the academy, saying, “I teach people who want to learn fencing for their own reasons, while Mr. Cheongjo is in the business of providing children with the psychological 바카라사이트 education they need through artistic skills.”

Women’s professional volleyball’s Kwan-jang Jung pulled off a dramatic upset against Heungkuk Life.The team defeated the visiting Heungkuk Sinsaeng 3-2 (21-25 26-28 25-22 25-7 18-16) in straight sets in the Dodram 2023-2024 V League Women’s Division at Samsan World Gymnasium in Incheon on Saturday.Jung ended Heungkuk Sinsang’s opening four-game winning streak and improved to 2-1 on the season.Heungkuk Life seemed to be on a roll, taking the first and second sets with Kim “Ssangpo” Yeon-kyung and Yelena Mrazenovic (real name Yelena), but Kwan-jang switched gears in the third set.In the third set, Kwanjang put up an iron wall and recorded six team blocks.Every single one of those blocks came in a contested game, and five of them were against Yelena, which was enough to turn the tide of the match.At 6-6, Jung Ho-young blocked back-to-back open attacks from Yelena, and at 19-21, Park Eun-jin and Megawatti Pertwee (nee Mega) combined for three straight blocks.Then, at 23-22, Yelena’s service error and Park Eun-jin’s open point combined to set the tone, and Jung sealed a commanding 25-7 win in the fourth set.The seven points in a set tied the record for fewest points in a single set in the history of the V League for both men and women.

Chung also collected six blocks in the fourth set, while Giovanna Milana (real name Gia) bounced back from her 1-3 set slump ith seven points.At 19-4, Chung scored 12 straight points to go up 21-4. Along the way, Jung served up four service aces.This tied the record for most consecutive points in a match and also tied the record for most consecutive service aces (12).In the unforgiving fifth set, Jung showed her backbone.At 13-13, a service error by Jia gave him match point, but Mega’s sharp diagonal attack brought the match to deuce.Mega then took a one-point lead with an exciting attack. Heungkuk Sinsung asked for a video review, but the ball came in generously inside the line.At 17-16, the score was tied at two points apiece, and Jia, who had a disappointing performance on the day, scored the final point with an atoning spike.Jia (20 points, 3 blocks), Jung Ho-young (14 points, 5 blocks), Park Hye-min (13 points, 1 block), and Park Eun-jin 온라인카지노 (12 points, 4 blocks) also played well as Mega finished with a team-high 31 points, including two blocked shots.

Professional women’s volleyball outside hitter Park Hye-min (22, Jung Kwan-jang) has revealed her prospects as a next-generation attacker.Park had an alto-like performance with 13 points (52.17% attack success rate), including one block, against Heungkuk Life at Samsan World Gymnasium in Incheon on Sept. 26.When foreign player Giovanna Milana (registered name Zia) struggled with five points in the first and second sets, Park Hye-min provided firepower with six points.For Jung, Park’s performance was especially welcome as her main player Lee So-young has yet to return from shoulder surgery in April.The team came from behind to win the set 3-2 (21-25 26-28 25-22 25-7 18-16) with evenly matched performances from Megawatti Puttiwi (registered name Mega – 31 points), Giovanna Milana (registered name Gia – 20 points), Jung Ho-young (14 points), and Park Eun-jin (12 points).After the match, Park Hye-min said, “At the end of the second set, the coach told me, ‘This is not your strength, so don’t make a confident face. Think you can do it,’ so I got up and fought harder,” Park recalled.

When asked if they felt any pressure to take over from their senior, Lee So-young, they confidently said, “I’m not nervous at all.””Originally, I would have collapsed quickly because I was mentally weak, but now I am not anxious because I have practiced well in the off-season,” Park Hye-min said, adding, “I am playing volleyball while having fun with the idea that I just need to show what I have practiced.”Customized advice from head coach Ko Hee-jin also helped.Ko told Park, who is not very tall at 1.81 meters, to play “smart volleyball” instead of pushing hard.”When we practiced, if I tried to hit hard, he would say, ‘You can’t do that. You should play smart volleyball,'” she said, adding, “I’ve been watching my older sisters who are good at finesse (with the ball) and copying them.”In particular, she references the play of IBK’s Hwang Min-kyung and Korea Expressway Corporation’s Moon Jung-won, saying, “Min-kyung really likes to play with the ball. In defense, I watch her a lot and try to make it my own.””He’s a bit of a ‘tsundere’ (nonchalant caretaker),” 스포츠토토존 she said of Ko’s blunt style. No matter what he says, I take it well and do my best,” he said with a laugh.

‘WC MVP’ Seo Ho-cheol-‘2 home runs, 4 RBIs’ Kim Hyung-jun batting 6-7 in Game 1…SSG returns with ‘2 home runs’ Choi Jung

The NC Dinos head into the first round of the semifinals with an improved batting order that features players from the wild-card game.

NC named Son As-seop (designated hitter), Park Min-woo (second base), Park Gun-woo (right field), Jason Martin (center field), Kwon Hee-dong (left field), Seo Ho-cheol (third base), Kim Hyung-joon (catcher), Oh Young-soo (first base), and Kim Joo-won (shortstop) as its starting lineup for the first game of the 2023 Shinhan Bank SOL KBO League postseason semifinals against SSG Landers at SSG Landers Field in Incheon on April 22.

NC, which finished fourth in the league with 75 wins, two draws and 67 losses this season, is coming off a 14-9 sweep of the Doosan Bears in the wild-card deciding game at Changwon NC Park on April 19. NC, which started the regular season in fourth place with one win, struggled after starter Tanner Tully gave up five runs in four innings and closer Lee Yong-chan gave up three runs. However, the bats came alive, including a solo home run by Seo Ho-cheol and a multi-homer game by Kim Hyung-jun, and they swept Dusan.

NC came out with a starting lineup that didn’t change much from the wild card game. However, there was a change in the bottom of the order. Seo Ho-cheol, who was named MVP after going 4-for-3 with a home run, six RBIs, two runs scored and one walk in the wild-card game, and Kim Hyung-jun, who hit a multi-homer game, moved up in the batting order one by one. Oh Young-soo will start at first base in place of Do Tae-hoon.

The starting pitcher is Shin Min-hyuk. Shin is 5-5 with a 3.98 ERA in 29 games (122 innings) this season. Against SSG, he pitched poorly with a 6.57 ERA in four games (12⅓ innings). In September and October, he went 1-0 with a 3.48 ERA in eight games (31 innings). Shin will be making his first appearance of the fall after throwing five scoreless innings against the KIA Tigers on Sept. 17. It was his first postseason appearance since making his professional debut in 2018.

After ace Eric Pedroia was hit by a pitch in his last start of the season and was removed from the roster for the wild-card game, it will be important for NC to hold up well until Pedroia returns. Game 1 starter Shin Min-hyuk will be especially important.

SSG will start Oh Tae-gon (1B), Park Sung-han (shortstop), Choi Jung (3B), Guillermo Heredia (LB), Han Yu-seom (designated hitter), Ha Jae-hoon (RB), Choi Ji-hoon (center field), Kim Sung-hyun (2B), and Kim Min-shik (catcher). Designated hitter Choi hasn’t played since April 10 against KIA due to a micro-injury in his left hamstring, but he returned in time for the semifinals. Choi Joo-hwan, 카지노사이트가이드 who is second on the team in home runs and tied for sixth in the league, is out of the starting lineup. Veteran Shin-Soo Choo will also start the game off the bench.

The starting pitcher will be Roenis Elias. Elias is 8-6 with a 3.70 ERA in 22 games (131⅓ innings) this season. He struggled against the Nats, going 3-1 with a 7.53 ERA in 14 innings, but hasn’t been bad since August, going 2-1 with a 3.83 ERA in eight games (49 innings).

Veteran pitcher emphasizes “don’t lose the fight”; fourth-year outfielder is confident that “third can beat fourth”

“Third place beats fourth place.” SSG Landers outfielder Choi Ji-hoon expressed his determination ahead of the first round of the semifinals.

SSG will host the NC Dinos at SSG Landers Field in Incheon on April 22 for the first round of the 2023 KBO postseason semifinals. It will be a best-of-five series.

Manager Kim Won-hyung revealed the batting order of Oh Tae-gon (first base), Park Sung-hwan (shortstop), Choi Jung (third base), Guillermo Heredia (left fielder), Han Yoo-seom (designated hitter), Ha Jae-hoon (right fielder), Choi Ji-hoon (center fielder), Kim Sung-hyun (second baseman) and Kim Min-sik (catcher).

The starting pitcher will be foreigner Roenis Elias. Elias went 8-6 with a 3.70 ERA in 22 regular season games this year. Against NC, he was 1-0 with a 7.53 ERA in three games.

“Third place has to beat fourth place,” Choi told the media before the game, showing his determination. Veteran left-hander Ko Hyo-jun, who has a lot of experience in the fall, said, “If we think we can win, we will have a good result. We’re going to think about it and prepare for it.” “What I’ve learned from my experience in the postseason is that ‘chi’ is important. If you lose, it’s crazy.”

Choi Ji-hoon is in his fourth year as a starting center fielder. His confidence was boosted by his performance at the 2022 Hangzhou Asian Games, where he won a gold medal. Veteran Ko Hyo-jun, who made his debut in 2002, has been a stalwart of the SSG this year, 먹튀검증토토사이트 leading the team to a third-place regular season finish. The pitcher has plenty of postseason experience, from the wild card round to the Korean Series.

“The key is how to stop the hitters who hit consistently in the NC,” said Kim Won-hyung. “They hit long balls in the bottom of the order and show good hitting feel. We need to pay attention to connecting to the top of the order.”

“The players were focused in the last place battle at the end of the season, and if we continue to do well, there will be good results,” Kim said.

Meanwhile, Son Asub (designated hitter), Park Min-woo (second base), Park Gun-woo (right field), Martin (center field), Kwon Hee-dong (left field), Kim Joo-won (shortstop), Seo Ho-cheol (third base), Kim Hyung-joon (catcher), and Do Tae-hoon (first base) are in the batting order.

The starting pitcher is Shin Min-hyuk. In 29 regular season games this year, Shin went 5-5 with a 3.98 ERA. Against SSG, he hasn’t fared so well, going winless in four games with a 6.57 ERA.

Shin Min-hyuk will be making his first appearance in the fall after throwing five scoreless innings against the KIA Tigers on April 17. It was his first postseason appearance since making his professional debut in 2018.

NC is coming off a 14-9 win over the Doosan Bears in the wild-card game at Changwon NC Park on April 19. NC, which finished the regular season in fourth place with one win, met SSG after starting pitcher Tanner Tully fell apart with five runs in four innings and closer Lee Yong-chan struggled with three runs, but the bats came alive.
