President Yoon Seok-yeol is answering questions from reporters at the ‘Public report and press conference on the second year of the Yoon Seok-yeol administration’ held in the briefing room of the Presidential Office Building in Yongsan, Seoul on the 9th. At the press conference held on this day, 1 year and 9 months after the press conference held on the 100th day of his inauguration in August 2022, President Yoon spoke about both the special prosecution bill for First Lady Kim Kun-hee, which the Democratic Party of Korea announced that it would promote, and the special prosecution law for Corporal Chae of the Marine Corps, which passed the plenary session of the National Assembly led by the Democratic Party.

At a press conference marking the second anniversary of his inauguration on the 9th, President Yoon Seok-yeol expressed his rejection of the special prosecution of First Lady Kim Kun-hee, calling it “a political offensive that does not fit the essence of the special investigation or the purpose of the system.” He also made clear his opposition to the ‘special investigation of Corporal Chae of the Marine Corps’, which passed the plenary session of the National Assembly led by the Democratic Party of Korea, saying, “(After the investigation is over), if the public says there are suspicions, I will be the first to advocate for a special investigation.” If the right to reconsider (veto) the Special Prosecutor Chae Act is exercised, the number of bills to be vetoed will increase to 10 after the current administration takes office. As the Democratic Party strongly opposes that it will propose the ‘Kim Kun-hee Special Prosecutor Act’ with the start of the 22nd National Assembly, an extreme confrontation between the ruling party and the large opposition party is expected.

Regarding the controversy over Mrs. Kim’s receipt of Dior bags, President Yoon said at the ‘Public Report and Press Conference on the Second Year of the Yoon Seok-yeol Government’ held at the Yongsan Presidential Office on this day, “I apologize for causing concern to the public due to my wife’s unwise behavior.” I apologized for the first time. At the same time, regarding the ‘Special Prosecutor Kim Kun-hee’, “The opposition party has always argued that when public opinion (for and against) a certain special prosecutor was equal during the time when it was in power, it opposed it with the argument that it is right to conduct a special prosecutor when there are suspicions of neglect or negligence in the prosecution and police investigation. “I came,” he emphasized. Regarding Special Prosecutor Corporal Chae, he said, “Once all procedures are completed, the investigative authorities will explain the progress and results to the public in detail.” He added, “It is better to watch the ongoing judicial process, trust the mindset and attitude of those involved in the investigation, and watch further.” “That’s right,” he said. President Yoon expressed his negative perception of the special prosecutor, saying, “Not long ago, after the general election, most of the media articles were political-related, with the Special Prosecutor Act and all.”

Park Chan-dae, floor leader of the Democratic Party, held an emergency press conference after the president’s press conference and criticized, saying, “I thought it was just in case, but it happened as expected,” and added, “I am strongly angry at the treatment of ignoring the people’s livelihood and abandoning the people’s lives again.” At the same time, he said, “Once the 22nd National Assembly begins, we will re-introduce the Special Prosecution Act on various suspicions related to First Lady Kim Kun-hee, including the suspicion of stock price manipulation of Deutsche Motors,” and added, “We are carefully considering whether to include the Seoul-Yangpyeong Expressway suspicion and luxury bag sorghum-related parts as well.” “He said. Regarding the Special Prosecutor Chae Act, he said, “Don’t complain about this or that, but fully accept the Special Prosecutor Chae Act,” and warned, “If the president exercises his veto, he will be solely responsible for everything that happens afterward.” He also said, “We will watch how many times (President Yoon) uses his veto,” and added, “I will clearly state that the owner of this country is not the president’s office, but the people, and I think you are also predicting what will happen next.” He also made remarks hinting at a push for action.

President Yoon said, “We will establish a new planning department tentatively named ‘Low Birth Response Planning Department’ to prepare for low birth rate and aging society,” adding, “The Minister of Low Birth Response Planning Department will serve as the Deputy Prime Minister for Social Affairs to encompass education, labor, and welfare, and implement a simple welfare policy.” “We will make sure that it goes beyond the level and becomes a national agenda,” he said. Regarding this, floor leader Park said, “I proactively support it.” “We will consider whether there is anything we can do to cooperate as an opposition party,” he said.
