◆ Lee Ik-seon: Thursday's corner current affairs restaurant Janggang named two lawyers with exceptionally good chemistry. Lawyer Jang Yoon-mi's lawyer Jang Kang Jeon-ae's Kang So that's why I'm Jang Kang. Legalize current issues. We have two lawyers, Jang Yoon-mi and Kang Jeon-ae. Please come in.

□ Jang Yoon Mi and Kang Jeon Ae : Hello.

◇ Choi Soo-young: Please do well today so that the two of you don't overflow like Yangtze River in China. Let's look at the breaking news first. In the morning, the prosecution again demanded a fine of 3 million won for Kim Hye-kyung, the spouse of Lee Jae-myung, who was indicted without detention on charges of violating the Public Official Election Act related to the presidential election. Is it because you were the same brother at the first final hearing, but you think the crime is serious?

□ Jang Yoon-mi: First of all, I think the crime is serious. Because during this sentence, the prosecution actually told the story to the effect that the nature of the crime was poor because they wanted to buy tickets with money, but if you look at this fact, they paid 104,000 won for food instead. But the people we ate together were the spouses of former and incumbent lawmakers of the Democratic Party. Then, it's almost certain that Lee Jae-myung will be picked anyway, so can we even call this a buyout? Of course, since the election law is very tight in Korea, it is not possible to pay for food on behalf of the court, but I wonder if talking about this as an act of buying tickets was a valid defense strategy to persuade the court. So I think that the 3 million won old is a bit excessive.

■ Kang Jeon-ae: First of all, in this case, the prosecution decided again today and asked for the same amount, but lawyer Jang pointed out the facts well and originally decided in July. At that time, the prosecution demanded 3 million won, and the sentencing date was set on August 13, but the court suddenly resumed the trial on its own authority the day before. Then what I looked at once again at the court was that a story told by the congressman's spouse that he had paid for his meal in cash. You know, the court uses force in restaurants because it resumes the trial. I checked things like that and the parts where the tax was paid, but the details of the cash use did not come out here. So in a way, there are disadvantages for Kim Hye-kyung. Then, he made up his mind again and asked for 3 million won today, but now, in the case of Bae, who transfers some responsibility to Bae, he was actually a Gyeonggi-do Provincial Government official and is known to have practically carried out Kim Hye-kyung. By transferring the responsibility to this person, he is saying that there can be no such thing as Kim Hye-kyung not being involved in it.

◆ Lee Ik-seon: A special inspector suddenly appeared in politics. It has been since Han Dong-hoon, the representative of the People's Power, expressed his intention to promote the recommendation of a special inspector. Since we have two people here today, I think we should ask them what kind of role the special inspector is.

■ Kang Jeon-ae: Let me tell you the law first. There is a special inspector law called the Special Inspector Act. The purpose of this law is to prescribe matters necessary for the appointment and duties of a special inspector in charge of monitoring the misconduct of a person with a special relationship with the president, such as a relative of the president. In the end, it plays this role of internally appreciating the feelings of the president's family and people with special relationships inside the president's office. Special Inspector General was not appointed during the Moon Jae In government. At that time, the opposition party's current people's power even recommended a candidate for a special inspector, but he was not appointed at that time. However, during the presidential election process, candidate Yoon Suk Yeol said, "If I become president, I will appoint a special inspector," but in reality, it has not progressed until now. This will be recommended by the National Assembly for three people. Then, if you recommend three people, the regulation says that the president must appoint them within three days. It's not that you can make an appointment, but as a result, if a recommendation goes in properly, the president has no choice but to appoint it. So far, there have been some parts that have not been done properly in the Moon Jae In administration and in the Yoon Suk Yeol administration. If so, that's what CEO Han Dong-hoon is talking about right now. There have been various risks related to Mrs. Kim Gun-hee recently. There are cases, but there should be an organization called the Special Inspector inside to organize this in advance. That's why they're saying we need to proceed with them quickly.

◇ Choi Soo-young: But I think we'll also be very curious about why the recommendation of a special inspector is linked to the recommendation of a director of the North Korean Human Rights Foundation. Please explain it to me.

□ Jang Yoon-mi: Actually, this is a completely separate matter. It is said that this has been adopted as a party theory of people's power. First of all, it is true that the Democratic Party of Korea is very passive about this recommendation regarding the North Korean Human Rights Foundation. There is a bit of caution that this will have an adverse effect on the side of provoking North Korea or on relations with North Korea, but when the Democratic Party of Korea stirred this part, the appointment was not made properly. Since this is also to be recommended by the National Assembly, it is a little stopped, so I will probably receive it if the ruling and opposition parties of the special inspector agree on the recent meeting with representative Han Dong-hoon in the presidential office. However, it is supposed to link the recommendation of directors of the North Korean Human Rights Foundation with the special inspection team. This is because the opposition party has also argued that it is a special inspection team for the Democratic Party of Korea, so you should accept it and give up instead. The North Korean Human Rights Foundation seems to have made the two-track by the people's power with the idea that you and the Democratic Party should yield and do this together. As the internal feud in the ruling party is getting so complicated, Chairman Han Dong-hoon said, "Nov. 15 is before Lee Jae-myung's first trial, and the special inspector has a strong will to do it quickly. The floor leader, Choo Kyung-ho, is not the floor leader, but the floor leader. Therefore, the situation within the ruling party has become a little unclear because this part is adopted as a party theory, so if there is a special inspection team, there should be a process of collecting opinions."

◆ Lee Ik-seon: Yes, but you said earlier why the Moon Jae In government did not appoint a special inspector. If the National Assembly recommends three people, they should be appointed within three days. Right, then there was no recommendation? You didn't make an appointment?

■ Kang Jeon-ae: At that time, the conservative side recommended it and the Democratic Party did not recommend their share. That's why we didn't have three recommendations, so President Moon Jae In didn't make the appointment then. In the case of the special inspection team, the National Assembly recommended three people. That's what the law says.

◇ Choi Soo-young: That means an agreement between the ruling and opposition parties. Recommend it to the National Assembly.

■ Kang Jeon-ae: I recommend three people, one from the ruling party and one from the opposition party, and one from the People's Power Party at that time. It was like that, but the Democratic Party didn't recommend it at that time. But now, between floor leader Choo Kyung-ho and party leader Han Dong-hoon, it is said that this is recommended by the National Assembly, so floor leader Choo Kyung-ho said, "This is the job of the floor, and I am the floor leader when it comes to floor management, so this Friday is the parliamentary inspection. After the parliamentary inspection, he said he would hold a general meeting of lawmakers and listen to their opinions here, and what Chairman Han Dong-hoon said was that because I am the party leader, I can do all the work of the floor and outside the party as my general manager. The law says that this is recommended by the National Assembly, but if so, is this only talking about the floor? In the relationship between the party leader and the floor leader, is the floor leader's authority included within the party leader's authority? There are some parts that have slightly different interpretations.

◇ Choi Soo-young: In the process, in the Telegram group chat room of the ruling party member, close lawmakers asked floor leader Choo to express his position on the special inspector, so floor leader Choo will discuss the special inspection this morning. However, he said he would do it when the audit is completed, but the audit will be completed soon, right?

■ Kang Jeon-ae: The parliamentary inspection will end this Friday, so he said he would hold a parliamentary meeting right after that, but as I said before, he listens to the opinions of certain lawmakers by holding a parliamentary meeting. Then, the head of the party Han Dong-hoon is talking about whether the head of the party Han Dong-hoon is bound by the conclusion from the meeting, saying that he is not only in the floor but also in all other areas as the party leader. If so, the floor leader is saying on the floor that this will be over, but representative Han Dong-hoon doesn't think so. If so, representative Han Dong-hoon is opposed to the conclusion from the general meeting of the lawmakers, or if that happens, there can be a head-on collision.

◆ Lee Ik-seon: I'm curious that the Democratic Party of Korea did not recommend inspectors during the Moon Jae In administration because it judged that this would be a burden to the president, right?

■ Kang Jeon-ae: Maybe so. And to take the case of Moon Da-hye, which is in question now, there are suspicions that Moon Da-hye moved to Thailand when her Moon Jae In was president, and in the process, her ex-husband got a job at Thai Starjet. I exchanged baht and won while going back and forth between Thailand and Korea. And there are circumstances that Cheong Wa Dae administrators at the time were involved in the process. However, if the special inspector was at Cheong Wa Dae at that time, these parts could have been pointed out. Then if you look at it now, After the end of the administration, Moon Da-hye's cases have been highlighted again, becoming an aggressive internal strife for some progressives, right? In that regard, now CEO Han Dong-hoon seems to be thinking about the fact that this could be a certain risk to conservatism, especially if it is not organized now, especially if the government changes.

◇ Choi Soo-young: This is what I want to ask lawyer Jang. But why does CEO Han Dong-hoon have to conclude this issue before CEO Lee Jae-myung's sentence in November? How do you interpret why you subtly nailed that viewpoint?

□ Jang Yoon-mi: Maybe I don't see any signs that the ruling party's internal feud will be resolved. It's too emotional now, and I think the floor leader is actually acting like the president's agent now. So, what is it that distinguishes the outside of the floor? In the political arena, I think the party leader is much higher because the party leader was elected by the members and the floor leader was just elected by the members. And we're discussing it together. This is tomorrow, this is your job, this is a sight I haven't seen before. Then, as representative Han Dong-hoon, the political momentum is probably before Lee Jae-myung's first trial sentence is November 15, so I think the ruling party will almost get the result they want.

◇ Choi Soo-young: Do you think there will be a conviction?

□ Jang Yoon-mi: We'll have to do it quickly before that. I think I'll finish it at my will before any variables arise, but I think I have that thought, and it doesn't seem easy for a special inspector to turn people's hearts around. I think it's too late.

■ Kang Jeon-ae: As you just said, I have some doubts about what kind of deadline is set for November 15th. But CEO Han Dong-hoon may have that thought. Now, Chairman Lee Jae-myung and the Democratic Party of Korea are talking about the investigation and trial of Chairman Lee Jae-myung as oppression of some regime. In particular, the prosecution is making such a frame of victim from the political prosecution, and recently, the prosecution has decided not to charge Kim Gun-hee with allegations of receiving luxury bags and Deutsche Motors. Then, after that, there are other suspicions about Mrs. Kim Gun-hee, such as Myung Tae-kyun. Then, the reason why the president's approval rating is low and low in recent polls is that there are problems with Kim Gun-hee, and there are also public opinions that a special prosecutor is needed for Kim Gun-hee. Considering this, even if representative Lee Jae-myung is found guilty, the people may have thought that the prosecution was selective about it. Then, the prosecution has talked about the facts to some extent while deciding not to indict him on the suspicion of accepting luxury bags in the Deutsche Motors case, but we don't know about the rest of the suspicions, and in fact, we don't know about Myung Tae-kyun. The facts. Is the president's office responding by knowing exactly that? Because the president said he saw Myung Tae-kyun twice in the presidential office, but even if you look at what has been released so far, it is revealed that he has seen it at least four or five times in person.
If so, the public can see this effect from a slightly different perspective when they are found guilty of representative Lee Jae-myung. From the perspective of representative Han Dong-hoon, it seems that he said November 15th in the sense that we should show that we are different before the ruling of representative Lee Jae-myung, but what I'm telling you is that there is no evidence in the case of Myung Tae-kyun. No matter what kind of involvement Mrs. Kim Gun-hee had, and these continuous suspicions can be revealed by November 15th. Even if Mrs. Kim cooperates with something and talks about the facts, whether the Democratic Party of Korea will accept it or the people will accept it. So I would like to say that it seems a little rushed to nail the date of November 15th, as if we are pressuring the presidential office like this.
