Notice: Both the original English translation and a third-party translation we recieved indicate that the original accusation alleges that the accused pro had ejaculated inside of her without consent [in my opinion, it looks a bit vague to me whether the female expressed her opinion] These details have not been mistranslated. Important to note is that the sex itself seems to have been consensual. No explicit mention of rape has been stated anywherinby the translation circulating on Twitter OR the original posts

Dear all, I am the person who have translated original posts. Firstly, I am sincerely sorry about stating my opinion late as I was waiting for approval.
The reason why I have translated her tweet was that some of Korean-speaking foreigners were quote-tweeting original post in a distorted way or translate it shortly with lack of context. Many foreign people seems to be curious about it so I decided to translate the tweet. At the time, I did not know which game, team and person is involved in this issue so I did not have any malevolence during the translation. I 'literally translated' main points while not writing any points that can identify who is the progamer A.
Nevertheless, some people started quote-tweet it with malevolence. For example, people who supports 'wrong feminism' are deliberately adding TW rape things while I never implied and explicitly mentioned rape things. Hence, I deleted translation as soon as I found out.
It was really confusing to me when the story became agenda of rape and I feel really sorry toward the team and the player ( I found out the team by csqix66's tweets) and I started write out position statement, apology letter to diverse websites to minimize the distortion and further damages toward the team and player. I personally have contacted drx team through email with my hand-written apology letter, personal identity and contacts in order to take responsibility.
It is my 100% fault to hastly translate such unconfirmed story to mass media which can trigger controversy but I really want to take responsibility and reduce the further damages toward the player.
I have been criticized by lots of people for my fault. It was really psychologically tired and hurting. But, when I think of psychological fatigue of the player who is concerned, he will be much more painful than how I feel as he is criticized for things that he is innocent. This is why I do not delete my Twitter accounts and accept all the criticizes
I know due to my hasty action, I have ruined my life and almost ruined talented young gamer's future career. I feel regretful but I know I should take responsibility to protect him from further damages.
I'm sincerely sorry to all, but I swear to God I never did it deliberately with malevolence. I am sincerely sorry to the player himself, and the team, and his fans who were earnestly supporting him.
Thanks for reading this, hope happiness blossoms in your everyday life...
