[스포탈코리아=트루아(프랑스)] Reporter Kim Seong-jin, Correspondent Kim Nam-gu = Testimony came out that Hyun-jun Seok (30, Trua), who was accused of evading military service, was in possession of permanent residence in Hungary.
Currently, Seok Hyun-jun was included in the list of 256 evades of military service in 2019, which was released by the Military Manpower Administration last year. Seok Hyun-jun was accused of violating Article 94 of the Military Service Act (overseas travel permit obligation). The reason for evading military service is illegal stay abroad.
However, a leading Korean soccer official told’Sportal Korea’ that “Suk Hyun-jun paid money when he was a player in Hungary and obtained permanent residency.” Another official in the soccer world said, “I know that Seok Hyun-jun immigrated. That is why he may have obtained a green card.”
Seok Hyun-jun played as a loan player for Debrecen, Hungary, from February 2017 to the end of the 2017/2018 season. As the official said, if you acquired permanent residence in Hungary, it would have been acquired during this period.
In the light of the reporter’s words, the way Seok Hyun-jun obtained permanent residency in Hungary is through investment immigration. In Hungary, investment immigration is possible by purchasing government bonds for 300,000 euros (about 400 million won). Also, unlike other countries, there is no requirement to reside in order to obtain permanent residence.

‘Sportal Korea’ contacted Seok Hyun-jun’s father, Seok Jong-oh, to hear the position of Seok Hyun-jun regarding the filing of a green card. He also found the Trois home game. It is known that Seok Jong-oh is currently staying abroad with Seok Hyun-jun.
‘Sportal Korea’ contacted Seok Jong-oh several times by phone and mobile messenger at the end of last year. To Jong-oh Seok, “There is a saying that you have a green card. “I contacted you to confirm the facts about this.”
At the Troia home game on the 5th, we inquired about this with the club official. After the game was over, I asked the club for an interview with Seok Hyun-jun. However, Troas declined the interview request due to Corona 19.
In this regard, when I asked the Troia club officials about permanent residency and criminal charges, it was the first reaction I heard.
Press Officer Bryce Miko: “This is my first time hearing. What accusation? (Let’s explain in detail) It’s amazing… This is something the club doesn’t know at all. If that’s true…” (Let’s say later)
Florent Ondernard Head of Public Relations Media: “The accusation? (Surprised) What kind of accusation are you talking about? “
▲ Violation of the Military Service Act even if you have obtained permanent residence
Permanent residency holders are eligible for overseas travel permit. However, even if Seok Hyun-jun has permanent residence in Hungary, it does not apply to overseas travel permit. If Seok Hyun-jun intends to be eligible for overseas travel permission through permanent residence, he must have lived in Hungary for at least 3 years. However, Seok Hyun-jun moved to Trois, France in the 2017/2018 season, and has been living in France until now.
In this regard, an official from the Military Manpower Administration said, “For the purpose of protecting personal information, we cannot comment on a specific person.” However, regarding the overseas travel permit of a permanent resident holder, he explained that “you must acquire a permanent resident card and continue to reside in the country for at least 3 years.”
Seok Hyun-jun currently resides in Trois, but if the registered place of residence is Hungary, he is eligible for an overseas travel permit. However, the Military Manpower Administration decided to file a criminal charge against Seok Hyun-jun. It can be said that he has not lived in Hungary for more than 3 years. If Seok Hyun-joon had lived for more than three years, he would have responded to the military manpower administration’s request for calling. However, Seok Hyun-jun was silent without calling.
