Artist Moon Joon-yong, son of President Moon Jae-in, who was caught in suspicion of preferential funding for culture and artists of 14 million won, said, “It is not money that goes into my pocket.” I think that I can use it for good by receiving the support fund.”
Previously, Moon received 14 million won by applying for an emergency art support fund for the victim of a novel coronavirus infection (Corona 19) from the Seoul Foundation for Arts and Culture.
In an interview with Maeil Economic Daily on the 22nd, Moon said, “It is unfortunate that the artist’s activities are masked rather than unfairly (by President Moon’s halo). It is unfair to attract and use children to attack politicians. Korea’s political behavior is so positively refuted. I should do it.” He said, “Especially, I’m refuting with the part of’I didn’t have skills, but I received preferential treatment from my father’s background.’
“I’ve been living without financial support from my parents for 11 years. I’m proud of it now that I have endured well,” he added. “Even an artist should quit as soon as it doesn’t make a profit. I think I shouldn’t live with other help.”
Regarding the suspicion of preferential support, he drew a line saying, “I think the judges will give preferential treatment, but it is not,” and “Some people hate the president, and some people take care of themselves because they are afraid of being noisy.”
Moon said, “I don’t want to see my work and not rhyme with my skills,” he said. “It’s a frequent job, so I spend a lot of time responding right away rather than having a lot of trouble. I try to get rid of my emotions and talk to social network services (SNS) as much as possible. Middle” he added.
