Jeonbuk Self-Governing Province Jeonju-eul Lee Seong-yoon (62), candidate for the Democratic Party of Korea, decided not to participate in the KBS Jeonju Broadcasting candidate debate scheduled for 10 pm on the 26th.

This is because KBS Jeonju Broadcasting notified candidate Lee of the change to ‘Comprehensive Special Investigation of First Lady Kim Kun-hee’ during the process of producing the subtitles for ‘Comprehensive Special Investigation of Kim Kun-hee’, candidate Lee’s first pledge.

Candidate Lee held an emergency press conference on this day and said, “The Yoon Seok-yeol regime’s control of the media has gone beyond anything imaginable, and has now reached a point where it is cutting the pledges of National Assembly members.” He added, “Is the Republic of Korea really Kim Kun-hee’s country? “We will define this incident as a serious act of election interference that went beyond the media’s duty of neutrality and even interfered with the election, and as a ‘silent promise,’” he declared.

He defined, “A pledge is a promise that a candidate makes to the voters, and the judgment on the pledge is made by the voters,” and “It is something that the media cannot interfere with and touch.”

He continued, “It is an illegal act that seriously infringes on the people’s right to know and freedom of expression, beyond the fact that the Election Broadcasting Deliberation Committee presented guidelines to broadcast as ‘First Lady Kim Kun-hee’s Special Prosecution’ rather than ‘Kim Kun-hee’s Special Prosecution.” “I suspect election interference,” he claimed.

At the same time, “the production team stated that they thought the word ‘Mrs.’ should be added based on the opinions of executives,” he said. “It can only be seen that KBS’s approval line participated in revising the pledge, not simply the opinions of individual production staff members.” said.

Meanwhile, KBS reportedly informed candidate Lee that they would not include the word ‘Mrs.’ if they did not want it.

He added, “I only requested this to purify the broadcast. He countered by saying, “There are no guidelines regarding the general election,” and “This is a one-sided claim that has been interpreted too broadly.”

An official from the Democratic Party said, “Shouldn’t the candidate from the main opposition party, who is likely to be elected, attend the debate?” and “If this incident is unfair, it should be made clear at the debate.” “It would be shameful not to participate in the debate,” he said.
