- Caught in the midst of a bullying scandal, South Korean volleyball twins Lee Jae-yeong and Lee Da-yeong controversially sign for Greek club
Twin volleyball players from South Korea, Lee Jae-yeong and Lee Da-yeong, have completed a transfer to Greek club PAOK Thessaloniki, months after being dropped from their national and club sides following claims of bullying. The twins enjoyed successful volleyball careers, representing South Korea in international competitions, until they were anonymously accused of bullying previous teammates at their school. After the allegations surfaced in February, they publicly apologized on their Instagram accounts, which have since been deleted. Both also said that they wished to meet with their former schoolmates to apologize for their actions. However, the twins said in a TV interview with Korean Broadcasting System (KBS) in July that they were suing the alleged victims for defamation because the claims included "lies and false information." Jae-yeong and Da-yeong were released by club side Incheon Heungkuk Life Insurance Pink Spiders in June when fans protested against the Pink Spiders' attempt to register the sisters on the roster. Fans sent trucks with mounted LED screens showing statements that read "Comeback of the school bullies that everyone except Heungkuk Life Insurance is against" to multiple locations, including the Heungkuk Life Insurance company headquarters in Seoul. In February, the Pink Spiders had confirmed it would suspend the pair for an indefinite amount of time, while the Korea Volleyball Association (KVA) dropped them from the national team ahead of the Tokyo Olympics. With free-agent status, the sisters chose to continue their volleyball careers in Greece. The players needed International Transfer Certificates (ITCs) issued by the KVA to transfer to an international club, but the association sternly refused, citing its own regulation which limits international transfers of those who have severely damaged the volleyball community or caused public controversy with "disgraceful acts." "We told Federation Internationale de Volleyball (FIVB) and the Greek team that we cannot agree with the [twins'] international transfer according to our regulation that players who caused public controversy cannot transfer internationally," the KVA told CNN. The KVA said it had received two messages from the FIVB asking for a bank account number to receive the solidarity fee from the twin sisters' transfer. When South Korean volleyball players transfer to an international club, the association receives 5% to 10% of the salary from the purchasing club. "We didn't provide our bank account information because we will not receive the fee," the association said. "This is not a matter of money." As the KVA maintained its stance until the given deadline, the FIVB confirmed to CNN that it has officially issued ITCs for the twins "as per the procedures under the FIVB Sports Regulations that allow ITCs to be approved without the consent of the National Federation." The KVA also confirmed Jae-yeong and Da-yeong's transfer to PAOK Thessaloniki. PAOK did not respond to CNN's request for comment. However, one of the alleged victims said in a TV interview with Korean broadcasting station MBC on Tuesday that she felt powerless that the sisters are heading to Greece while the bullying scandal remains unresolved. Her face was not shown and her voice was altered to guard her anonymity. The South Korean public also raged about the news. "Was it that difficult to apologize sincerely?" one wrote on Twitter. "Can we just ban them from coming back? They're running away without even apologizing for school bullying," another fan wrote.
They would have been such a great ace to look up to. Unfortunately, their ego is beyond repaired. To be able to transfer to continue their flawed character, it is a regrettable.
Read Korean news. The twins are done in Korea. Also they never apologized to victims. They actually sued the victims.
Who said they never apologized? Have you watched their clafirication?
So after a year and half , what's going on with Women Volleyball Of South Korea nowadays after made unfair news, made big mistaken decision and unprofessional by KOVO, pressed and bullied the twins by the South Korea people, and Government intervension to boycott them? While The twins keep shining their career in other country ✌️🙂
@@caramelwijaya2412 apparently they are not shining at all. specially lee jeayeong
@@caramelwijaya2412 lol have u seen the apology... They basically admitted in an interview that the league made them post it and also sued the victims after the 'fake' apology for defamation 🙄🙄... How are there people still supporting them I don't get😮😕
Pleasantly surprised they were dropped. So rare for karma to visit evil ones...esp. in Korea where police and teachers turn their backs on the victims.
These twins be like: "How dare you ruin my reputation for saying the things I did 😤 🤧!"
I'm so done with the comments 😂 it's like 'bully' is a small mistakes
This is my opinion after they drop Lee twins in korean volleyball team regarding bullying why did you give important regarding this matter cause its always usual in every country and also racist thats why I will ask your games and amusement that thus who bullying with the twins can help your country be the top again in international compentation and what happen now your country I think no. 12 if the Lee twins play previously you are no.2 or 3 cause you defeat indonesia and thailand but the americans is the champ can you imagine that things happen except bullying is the issue and I think this is the right time to think that who might be the persons will give your country great regarding volleyball sports I just pray to heavenly father that you realize the past I am a avid fan of Lee twins here in my country and I'm not a korean nationality cause I also avid fan of my Idol they korean queen Nancy of Momoland but you know circumtances beyond our countrol and Lastly regards to my beloved Idols Lee twins and Nancy God bless you and keep safe always.❤
I don't care about games, they suppose to kicked out because they are bully,
How confident are you to say, Korea will be in 2 or 3 spot if the twin will comeback? It seems like you forgot the legendary team captain KIM Yeon Koung, Please do some research before you say so. The AUDACITY. As Saori said the former Japan team captain. It's Japan VS Kim Yeon Koung.. And your comment somehow misleading, who bullied who?
Looks like comments are from pluto
Why are the victims did not file a complaint previos years? Just curious.
They were very triggered when the twins posted a tweet about how the ones getting bullied want to kill themselves... Basically the younger twin felt threatened by the new player in the pink spiders and started posting these tweets to target the new player but it backfired as it gave a push to the victims bullied by them...
Their mom had connections with everybody in the school. Imagine, you cannot advance in your career and hone your skills because of the trauma they caused? The coaches only focused on the twins during their younger years no wonder they became so great but at the cost of others. 😢
In Korea, it's difficult to file complaint against influential families...police and teachers tend to turn their backs on the victims.
PAOK SALONICA FOREVER
👍👍👍😃😀😄
Don't mess with pro twins
Nyimak aja 😘
Bullying at school it’s not criminal act to take against the twins sisters and prevent them to play after to many years,however they are super talented girls and a lot of support they have around the world .the Korean rules very bad to prevent them to play even they don’t let them to go to play overseas.
Did you actually read the extent of their bullying? And bullying is actually illigal in many countries.. both these sisters physically hurting their teammates when they were in school not only that their current teammates also accused them of bullying.. their current teammates told press that the younger sister will constantly msg team group that she will tale her own life just so that everyone will be afraid to say anything to her.. and the older sister has been accused of sexually harassing her teammates.. that did that when they were adult. The older sister will take pictures of her teammates in bathroom and threaten to publish them.. and that's what they do while being adult.. and let's not forget their mother was also accuse of bullying her teammates in the 90's when she was playing.. the younger sister had verbally and physically abused her husband.. they deserve to be in jail for the things they did to those people.. learn the whole story before commenting.
If you or your kids would be badly bullied, you wouldnt think like that.
Twins are the best volleyball players ever
