The court acknowledged Ki’s will to establish a soccer center, saying, “Looking at the location and shape of the land, it seems that there is an aspect of buying it in a diamond shape and considering it as an alternative if there is a problem with the existing soccer center construction site.”
However, he requested that Ki feel a sense of responsibility as the father of a public figure and show sincerity someday by building a soccer center as promised.
The judge said, “Mr. Ki is not guilty of buying farmland without any real intention to cultivate it. Although this land still belongs to development restrictions or military reservations, development profits may someday occur, and some were included in the Maruk Park site.” .
