[김호영 기자]On the 19th, candidate Kim Jin-wook, head of the Office of Crime Investigation for High-ranking Public Officials, announced on the 19th that “all possibilities are open.”
Candidate Kim said at a hearing on the National Assembly’s Legislative and Judicial Commission, Cho Su-jin, a member of the power of the people, “in the passport, he freely picks Prosecutor General Yoon Seok-yeol as the first target for the investigation.” I will not do it,” he said.
Candidate Kim said, “The case of the airlift 1 is very symbolic,” he said. “At the time when the airlifter has a complete investigation system, it will be carefully reviewed. Instead of opening all possibilities, it is based on the law rather than political considerations. I will (investigate target #1).”
When Rep. Cho pointed out, “There was a shaking of President Yoon who investigated living power in the current government and ruling party, and in this process, it was said that he was the target of the 1st investigation into the air defense department.” I must have information, but the information I still have has appeared in the media,” he answered.

In the recording, CEO Choi said, “I want to be the first to be the subject of investigation by the public prosecution agency (Prosecutor General Yoon Seok-yeol).”
Immediately after questioning Congressman Cho, CEO Choi said, “I didn’t know that it would be provocative in this way. I was a journalist, and my voice came up with a distorted premise that I couldn’t imagine.” “I am sorry for the distortion of the facts by replied that the mother-in-law cannot be the target of the investigation because the direct survivor or spouse is the target of the investigation.”
CEO Choi said, “To the question that induces the first person to be investigated by the airlift, it is the decision of the airlifter,” he said. “There is such a clear fact that a distorted statement by a specific party is He pointed out several times and even distributed an official press release.”
