Justice Minister Park Beom-gye announced on the 8th that “when I met the president in person, I spoke clearly with respect to the announcement of a surprise attack on personnel at the level of prosecutors on the 7th, which caused the controversy of “passing Yun Seok-yeol”. The prosecution objected to this, saying, “It was a direct investigation of not delivering specific personnel plans to the prosecutor general.” This is the second round of battle with controversy over passing President Yoon.

Park “Lee Seong-yoon stays in office to investigate pending issues”
“They have only investigations to crush them” in the prosecution
On the way to the Ministry of Justice on the same day, Minister Park said, “I think the general may be inadequate, but I want to tell you to understand.” Said. It means that it has accepted the hard demands of the prosecution bureau chief Shim Jae-cheol (the Seoul Southern District Prosecutor’s Office), who took the lead in the discipline of President Yoon. However, Seoul Southern District Prosecutor’s Office, Lee Jeong-soo, who was appointed as the new prosecutor’s office, is considered to be the prosecutor Chu Line, who was promoted to the prosecutor’s office in January last year by former Minister Choo Mi-ae.
In addition to changing the positions of Chief Prosecutor Shim Jae-cheol and Chief Prosecutor Lee Jeong-soo as the first personnel action, Minister Park appointed Chuncheon District Prosecutor Jeon Joong-tae as the keynote chief of the Great Sword who is vacant. In the Chuncheon District Prosecutors’ Office, Kim Ji-yong, Deputy Prosecutor of the Seoul High Prosecutor’s Office, was moved. Seoul Central District Prosecutors’ Office Lee Seong-yoon, chief prosecutor Lee Jong-geun, chief prosecutor Lee Jong-geun, chief prosecutor Lee Jeong-hyun, and Shin Sung-sik, head of the anti-corruption and power department, were retained.

To summarize the coverage of the JoongAng Ilbo, in a face-to-face discussion with President Yoon on the 5th, Minister Park verbally explained three directions: the appointment of Seoul Central District Prosecutors’ Office Lee Seong-yoon, the replacement of the prosecutor’s chief Shim Jae-cheol, and the appointment of Daejeon District Prosecutor’s Office Lee Du-bong. An official at the prosecution said, “We are talking about the direction of greetings as if we were notifying specific personnel plans.”
There are also voices of criticism that Minister Park said on the day that “Prosecutor Lee Seong-yoon remained in office because he had to continue investigating the current issue.” The prosecution officer who requested anonymity pointed out that “the central district prosecutor has only investigations that attack General Yun or have to crush them, such as the Channel A case, the case related to Yoon’s family, and the assault of Vice Minister Lee Yong-gu.” Another prosecution official predicted that “in the future, deputy general prosecutors and chief prosecutors will introduce persons who comply with the order of the district prosecutor.”
There are many observations that even before and after the Lunar New Year, deputy general managers and inspector-level personnel will be made slightly. This is because Minister Park announced that he will greet him in the second half of July, when his term as President Yoon expires. However, at the Seoul Central District Prosecutors’ Office, 1st Deputy Prosecutor Kim Wook-jun, who resigned, and the 1st Detective Chief Byun Pil-gun, who set up a confrontation with District Prosecutor Lee Seong-yoon with the conclusion of’no charge of Han Dong-hoon’ are discussed.
