Song Ho-jong, a chat room participant and former presidential bodyguard, testified yesterday (14th) at a parliamentary audit of the National Assembly's Legislation and Judiciary Committee that he understood that it was possible to exercise later in the afternoon because it was a golf group chat room.
Opposition lawmakers said Lee Jong-ho, former head of Black Pearl Investment, said in a group chat with Song and businessman Choi Taek-yong in May last year, "Check Sambu Tomorrow," and five days later, Sambu Corporation's stock trading volume increased 40 times.
However, Song explained that he has never talked about anything other than exercise and that he does not do the stock itself, and that he understood that even if he arrives at 2 to 3 p.m., he will check if he can work out for about nine holes.
In addition, when opposition lawmakers pointed out that the Marine Corps golf course does not operate in the third part, and asked Choi, who was a witness, if there was a third part, Choi replied that he did not invest in the third part but did not invest in the third part.
