When asked about the power of the people, the abuse of Lee Dong-gwan and the infringement of broadcasting independence, the answer was

Regarding the presidential office’s foreign cooperation special adviser Lee Dong-gwan’s internal decision of the Korea Communications Commission, the power of the people expresses concern about the issue of school violence, but it is controversial by saying that it is not a political problem for the presidential special adviser to go to the position where he should supervise broadcasting independence.

It is pointed out that it is contrary to the position of the power of the people, which the Korea Communications Commissioner has insisted on maintaining independence and neutrality.

In a back briefing after the National Assembly’s countermeasures meeting was held in Room 228 of the main building of the National Assembly on the morning of the 9th, National Power Representative Yoon Jae-ok said, “There is a rumor that special advisor Lee Dong-gwan will be appointed as the chairman of the Korea Communications Commission. In response to a media today reporter’s question, “How do you view it? Has there ever been an internal investigation into suspicion of school violence?”, he said, “I will announce my position when I am officially nominated.”

In response to a question asking, “There are many points out that the fact that the special presidential advisor is mentioned as the chairman of the Korea Communications Commission itself is against neutrality, can we ask for an opinion on that part?” Yoon said, “I don’t agree.” This is the media or special news in this field. I don’t think it’s such a material to be politically problematic.”

Then, in response to the reporter’s repeated question, “There is a possibility of infringing on independence even formally, and whether a person who assisted the president can maintain and manage the independence of broadcasting,” the reporter asked again. If nominated, there is a hearing process, and is there anyone who expresses an opinion on that part?”

Previously, other members of the People’s Power or the highest commissioner expressed concerns about the nomination of Lee Dong-gwan as a special advisor.

Ha Tae-kyung, a member of the People’s Power, said on CBS Radio on the 8th Appearing on the show, he said, “It seems that a lot of worries are pouring out on the party leadership,” and “I think it is necessary to check (related to school violence)” regarding the appointment of the chairman of the Korea Communications Commission by Special Advisor Lee Dong-gwan. Rep. Ha said, “Looking at the article yesterday, you seem to be saying that everything has been resolved… Since the issue of school violence is one of the greatest concerns of our people right now, it is true that the party is in considerable trouble if there are statements or testimonies that are a little bit bad in the issue of school violence.” Rep. Ha said, “So I think I have a lot of worries,” and confessed, “If another story comes out, it could become a hindrance.”

Jang Ye-chan, the top commissioner, also appeared on MBC Radio on the 6th. Appearing on “My cell phone, I get a lot of opinions and text messages from supporters and party members, but there are people who are worried, and of course I would be ready for an explanation for that part, but I thought about it from various angles, reviewed it, and verified it. I am just speculating that I might do it one more time.”

Rep. Eun-ah Huh raised concerns about criticism of special advisor Lee Dong-gwan for suppressing the media in the past and concerns about neutrality. MBC TV on the 7th “I understand that there will be enough concerns and concerns,” he said. Rep. Heo said, “I can be concerned,” in response to the question, “Do you agree that there is a concern?” There are some people who say, ‘What if the same thing happened then?’, but each person’s position may be very different, and a lot of time has passed, and if he is a candidate for Lee Dong-gwan now, he doesn’t know what to do.” Rep. Heo said, “In over-defense, the chairman of the Korea Communications Commission should have independence and neutrality and should not be ideologically biased.”

Regarding the limitations of the talent pool, Rep. Heo pointed out, “It seems to focus on people I knew before,” and pointed out, “It is the position that such a part needs to be corrected.” Rep. Huh said, “I also think that if the positions of the ruling and opposition parties change, the Democratic Party says the same thing and we say the same thing, and we are fighting a boring fight to the people.”

Regarding the suspicion of abusing Lee’s son, Rep. Heo said, “I oppose the guilt-by-association system, but if you intervene directly, the problem will change, so the Democratic Party will probably try to clarify that part.” I will be able to explain it, and (if) I will reveal the facts and intervene, I will also raise the issue.”
