In connection with the allegations of illegal inspection by the National Intelligence Service during the Lee Myung-bak administration, Kim Jong-min, together with the Democratic Party’s Supreme Council member, attacked Busan Mayor Park Hyeong-joon, who served as the chief political officer of the Blue House at the time, saying, “Insulting Busan.”
Supreme Commissioner Kim said at the Supreme Council’s meeting held at the National Assembly on the 19th, “To become the mayor of Busan without clearing up the suspicions of political inspections is an insult to the Democratic Busan. It is not possible.” He argued that “Candidate Park, who was then head of government at the Blue House, denied that it had nothing to do with the executive office of political affairs,” he argued. “It is not common sense that the head of political affairs has nothing to do with the preparation and use of personal data of ruling and opposition lawmakers.” He said, “You must participate in the investigation of the truth with a sincere attitude,” he warned, “it must be kept in mind that the power of the people can not receive the public’s trust as a public party, leaving the DNA of political inspections intact.
Earlier, Democratic Party lawmakers have repeatedly criticized Park’s target. Democratic Party Strategic Planning Commissioner Jeong Tae-ho said on the 17th, “Because the candidate running for Busan was the head of government at the time, we have no choice but to pay more attention.” Rep. Ahn Min-seok, a senior member of the 5th line, also said, “Professor Hyung-joon Park admitted to the illegal inspection at the moment when he defined this issue as a’political maneuver’.” I would have shared it.
On the other hand, Candidate Park appeared on a radio broadcast that day and said, “I don’t know at all, and I haven’t actually been involved in the illegal inspection,” he said. “Before the election, like the last mayoral election in Ulsan, there is an impure intention to intervene in that way.” . He said, “It hasn’t been a problem at all in the investigation of redemption in the past two years, and the wise citizens know all the reasons why an issue that had never even been investigated by a reference person at that time comes up again before the election.” “If you know the political intention of the situation, I think you will judge it more severely.”
