In the wake of South Korean prosecutors indicting about 70 players, gambling brokers and others in a game-fixing scandal, the K-League announced it will use polygraph testing to help prevent moregame-fixing scandals from erupting and better investigate those implicated in future scandals.
The K-League said it also will double the minimum annual wage for league players to $22,670to lessen the temptation to take bribes to fix games.
A former K-League player who allegedly worked as a broker was found dead in an apparent suicide in May.
