As the National Assembly's parliamentary audit of the Seoul Metropolitan Government pointed out the problems of the pilot project for foreign domestic managers, Seoul Mayor Oh Se-hoon expressed his willingness to expand it by supplementing it in various forms.

In addition, the parliamentary inspection was once suspended between opposition lawmakers and Mayor Oh, who attacked the Han River bus project, which begins next year.

The Seoul Metropolitan Government's parliamentary audit recently focused questions on the Philippine housekeeper project, which has revealed problems due to the unauthorized departure of workers.

Both the ruling and opposition parties agreed with the intention of filling the care gap, but pointed out that workers' rights should be guaranteed in a more sustainable form.

[Jo Seung-hwan / People's Power Member] There is a good chance that child rearing or domestic care can last quite a long time. If so, you can change your E-9 visa to your professional E-7 visa or....]

[Han Byung-do / Democratic Party member: If they actually move a lot and show these characteristics, they need to check the shelter problem and provide careful support.]

In response, Mayor Oh expressed his willingness to expand the scope of nursing care workers, saying that he is considering supplementing them in various forms, such as the introduction of workers from other countries.

[Sehun/Seoul Mayor: Only the Philippines, but we've selected Cambodia and other Southeast Asian countries and are considering a competition system]

The "Han River Bus" project, which will be officially operated next year, is also on the cutting board of the National Assembly.

The opposition party went on the offensive, saying that it was not convenient as public transportation even though tens of billions of won was spent on the project,

[Yoon Gun-young / Democratic Party Member: Accessibility itself is poor. There are seven river bus docks. You know how long it takes from public transport to the dock, right? (Sure. I've walked everything.)It's 10 or 20 minutes away from other public transportation.

Mayor Oh drew a line, asking for an audit by the Board of Audit and Inspection if necessary, in response to suspicions that he gave preferential treatment to a specific company during the dock and shipbuilding process.

[Woo Seong-gon / Minjoo Party member: To give support to Han River Forecruise and Gadeok Heavy Industries, you have such doubts? Yes. That's how I raise the suspicion. (We received reports that the suspicion is unfounded.)]

When Mayor Oh protested, saying that the opposition party did not give enough opportunities to respond along with the fierce battle between the ruling and opposition parties, opposition lawmakers raised their voices and raised their voices, leading to a 20-minute suspension of the parliamentary inspection.

[Oh Se-hoon / Mayor of Seoul: What kind of crime is the head of the audited organization? If you're here for an inspection, you should also listen to the explanation of the audited director. (Every time I ask you a question, you're being naughty...)Senator, that is a little too much to express. What do you mean you're being naughty? Did I just tease you?]
Regarding TBS, which has been on the verge of closure since
lifted the Seoul Metropolitan Government's funding agency, Mayor Oh expressed his position that although the relationship is now broken, he will do his best to help if necessary.
