On the 23rd, the National Assembly personnel hearing of candidate Byeon Chang-heum of the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport ended after midnight on the 24th, 14 hours after more than 10 apologies and clarifications.

Candidate Byeon repeatedly apologized for the controversy over the past at the end of the personnel hearing. He said at the closing remarks of the personnel hearing, “I sincerely apologize once again to the bereaved (Kim), the deceased, and the people at risk through my remarks four years ago.” He then lowered his head, saying, “If there is any mistake in today’s hearing process due to my carelessness or mistake, I ask for your understanding.”

Candidate Byun said, “If I become a minister, I will communicate widely with the people, the policy field, and experts from all walks of life.” “The creative and future-oriented harmonious integration of my expertise and experience accumulated over 30 years and the practical skills of individual employees of the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport. I will make it into a human organization.”

He added, “We will do our best to prepare the future policies to go forward,” saying, “We will not only stabilize the housing market, but also solve current policy issues such as the future of housing, land, and transportation.”

Candidate Byeon bowed his head over the’last controversy’ raised in the past remarks, but actively clarified the suspicion of the child’s’Dad Chance’ preferential treatment and the’recruitment of acquaintances’.

On this day, the opposition party “was not equipped with the minimum dignity that should be equipped as a human, not as a member of the State Council” (Rep. Hee-guk Kim), “I think it is a matter of values ​​and life that originated from a sense of privilege rather than a momentary end-to-end” ( Park Seong-min, Rep. of the People’s Power), “The more we look at the candidate’s side, the more disastrous it is that we want this to be right” (Lee Heon-seung, National Power Rep.

In addition, the Democratic Party and the Open Democratic Party defended candidate Byeon and went to Goseong.

Justice Party lawmaker Shim Sang-jeong said, “Do you think you have the qualifications of the minister in the government that has put forward the state philosophy of’people first,” while revealing the nurturing of the mother of’Kim Gun, who died in the Guui Station accident.’ He also pointed out.

Then Candidate Byeon said, “I sincerely apologize for the careless words of the deceased or the bereaved.” “We apologize and apologize more and more and save the lives and safety of the people as much as we have caused sins and debts of our hearts. I will do my best,” he bowed again.

Regarding the suspicion of her daughter’s reduction in US tuition fees, he said, “Because the school is special, Yale University’s tuition application rate was so high that the cost was low, and there is no other way to explain it.”

Candidate Byun explained that the purpose of remarking, “Korean culture doesn’t eat breakfast with people who don’t know each other,” has been clarified. However, in the process, she said, “Women are careful to eat breakfast together because of makeup or something like this,” and again became controversial. In response, Chairman Jin Seon-mi pointed out that “there is a concern that could promote prejudice against women,” and candidate Byeon said, “It seems that it could have brought about another misunderstanding from the perspective of listeners. I am sorry to tell you that that was not the purpose,” he explained.

‘I bought an apartment in Seocho-gu because I was young in June 2006,’ said the opposition lawmaker, “I am telling you that’young-eul’ does not correspond to me to express the time to live too much without income.” ‘Youngcle’ is an abbreviation for’to attract even the soul’ and refers to the situation in which real estate is purchased using all possible methods, such as mortgage loans, credit loans, and interim settlement of severance pay under limited conditions. Some pointed out that the analogy itself was wrong by limiting it to people with no income.

Meanwhile, the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport plans to hold a plenary meeting at 10 am on the 24th to discuss whether to adopt a personnel hearing progress report for candidate Byeon.
