Prosecutor General Yoon Seok-yeol returns as the court decides to’cite’ in the application for suspension of validity for two months. It has been eight days since the Prosecutor and Disciplinary Committee of the Ministry of Justice decided on a two-month suspension of punishment with President Yoon. The disciplinary committee agreed that disciplinary action was necessary, but as the court was blocked by a decision, the disciplinary action of’suspending the office of the president’ became virtually’nothing’. This year, the conflict between Justice Minister Choo Mi-ae and President Yoon, who had been struggling with personnel, investigation and command authority, and discipline, has been ended by court judgment. But inside and outside the legal world, the observation that the two sides could collide again is fueling. Right after Yoon returns, he will lead major investigations, and Minister Chu will be able to face a conflict at the beginning of the year. It is an analysis of the legal profession that Yoon’s return can act as a new’fire line’ of the two-sided conflict and spread to another’chu-yun conflict’.

◇Start with greetings… Conflict to Discipline and Conflict = The start of the nervous war between Minister Chu and President Yoon dates back to January this year. At that time, Minister Chu performed a greeting to the prosecution immediately after taking office. The result was the massive relegation of President Yoon’s aide and the progress of prosecutors from the prosecution. After that, the conflict between the two began in earnest as Minister Chu initiated the investigation command, “Excluding General Yoon from the investigation line for the Channel A case”. President Yoon immediately expressed consensus, but it was a view from inside and outside the legal profession that the goal of the conflict between the two sides had deepened. The conflict led to the exercise of the second investigative command by Minister Chu to stop Yun’s investigation into the Lime lobby suspicion and the president’s family case. In addition, the conflict accelerated when Yoon said, “The Secretary-General is not the minister’s subordinate” to the invocation of the investigation command power of Minister Chu during the National Assembly audit on October 23rd. In particular, President Yoon’s remarks at the time that “I will think about how to serve the society and the people like that after I slowly retire” became a hotspot for Choo to demand discipline from him. In the end, on November 24th, Minister Chu filed a request for disciplinary action against President Yoon and exclusion from duties, and the conflict between the two sides flowed in the form of an all-out war.

◇ Secret story before litigation… Gong-eun to the court = In response to Minister Chu’s offensive, President Yoon confronted him with an application for suspension of the suspension of his duties. Accordingly, the Seoul Administrative Court made a decision on the 1st to suspend the effect of exclusion of duties for President Yoon, and he returned after a week after his suspension of duties. However, when the disciplinary committee decided on a severe disciplinary action against President Yoon of two months of suspension, it took a turn for the worse. With President Moon Jae-in approving this, the disciplinary action of the incumbent prosecutor general, which was first in the history of the constitution, became a reality. On the day the discipline was confirmed, Minister Chu expressed his appreciation to President Moon.

Yoon was excluded from the job for the second time this year as the two months of suspension was confirmed. As a result, President Yoon immediately counterattacked with an administrative suit requesting the court to cancel the disciplinary action and requesting suspension of execution. Eventually, the court raised the hand of President Yun after questioning twice. It is the second return following the first one. On the 25th of Christmas, Yun goes to work at the Supreme Prosecutors’ Office and receives reports of work during his absence from the Deputy Chief of Prosecutors and the Secretary General.

The Supreme Prosecutors’ Office in Seocho-dong, Seoul, is lighting up on the 24th, when the second interrogation date was held on the case of the application for suspension of the enforcement of the disciplinary disposition that Prosecutor General Yoon Seok-yeol filed against Justice Minister Chu Mi-ae. /yunhap news

◇The clock of the 尹 turns again… Personnel Promotion 秋=In and outside of the legal profession, the observation that Yoon may return and collide with Minister Chu is dominant. It is expected that Yoon will return to his place and take charge of duties such as directing investigations into major cases. On the other hand, Justice Minister Choo Mi-ae can speed up the last prosecutor’s appointment before leaving office. It means that the two can stand at the fore again in major investigation and prosecution personnel.

In the investigation, the first point of collision is the investigation of suspicion of economic feasibility evaluation of Wolseong Nuclear Power Plant Unit 1. General Yoon previously approved a warrant request for a major suspect even when he returned to the first round, so there are many expectations that he will be able to command the upper-ranking investigation again. Former Minister of Industry, Baek Woon-gyu, and Korea Gas Corporation President Chae Hee-bong (former Blue House Industrial Policy Secretary), who are classified as key suspects, could be summoned and searched for and seizure of related ministries. The fact that the prosecution personnel may start starting with the prosecutor-level prosecutor in January of next year is another part of the conflict between the two sides. This is because under the Prosecutors’ Office Act, two people have to discuss the prosecution personnel at one table. The law stipulates that’the appointment and assignment of prosecutors is made by the President at the request of the Minister of Justice’. However, it is said that’you must listen to the opinion of the prosecutor general of the Ministry of Justice.’ This means that the two should discuss for regular personnel at the prosecution.
