Park posted on his Instagram story on the 19th, "I have never attended the rally, and I clearly state that all the contents of the rally related to me are not true."

He appealed, "We ask you to stop spreading false information online, including SNS, and indiscriminate personal attacks."

Earlier in the day, supporters of President Yoon Suk Yeol staged a fierce protest, crossing the wall of the Seoul Western District Court and breaking windows with iron pipes when news of President Yoon's issuance of the old police station was reported.

In the process, police officers and MBC reporters were assaulted, and witnesses mentioned announcer Park spread.

A netizen posted a claim, "A woman named MBC Park So-young hit her and her grandmother fell down bleeding, and after the police put her in a police car, the second and third units of the task force came to protect her and let her go." However, announcer Park dismissed it.

Meanwhile, the Supreme Prosecutors' Office said, "The illegal occupation of violence committed at and near the Western District Court between last night and early this morning is a very serious crime that completely denies the rule of law and the judicial system," adding, "We ordered the Seoul Western District Prosecutors' Office to set up a dedicated team to respond strictly."

The prosecution said, "We will work closely with the police to conduct a strict investigation by arresting and investigating all major participants, while seeking heavy punishment."

The dedicated team consists of nine prosecutors, including Shin Dong-won, deputy chief prosecutor of the Western District Prosecutors' Office.
