The presidential office issued a notification today (8th) under the name of the spokesperson's office, and President Yoon said that high-ranking officials and politicians who visited their homes in early July 2021 and some time later, respectively, brought Myung and met twice.
He explained that the president met the two politicians at their respective homes at the time because they demanded security, and that Myung did not come to his home because he was a separate acquaintance with the president.
He added that the People's Power politician, who saw Mr. Myung come to the president's local campaign rally at the end of the primary, advised him to keep his distance from him, and that President Yoon remembered that he had never exchanged text messages or talked to him on the phone.
At the time, the president also stressed that he was listening to presidential election advice from people with a lot of political experience, and that there was no reason to listen to advice from people who did not know what they were doing.
