[Asia Economy Reporter Park Cheol-eung] The Democratic Party of Korea has demanded a clear explanation regarding the military service classification of Jang Je-won's son, a member of the Future United Party.


Lee Kyung, the Democratic Party's standing deputy spokesperson, stated in a commentary on the 3rd, "Rapper Noel (Jang Yong-jun) was classified as Grade 4 for social service duty last year. Jang's son was removed from broadcasting due to allegations of attempting prostitution as a minor and is currently under indictment without detention for attempting to switch drivers after a drunk driving accident. Now, he has received a Grade 4 military service classification for reasons unknown."


He added, "Ironically, Jang, who once expressed 'deep regret' over his son's successive incidents and resigned from his chairman and spokesperson positions, has education as his pledge for the general election. He is even proposing plans to create a constituency where dreams can grow, seeking votes from the public, which is a sight that cannot be tolerated."



The deputy spokesperson said, "Due to the incidents involving Jang's son?prostitution allegations, drunk driving, and exemption from military duty?many young people are expressing social deprivation. Compared to Jang's son, even existing dreams are falling into ruin," and asserted, "How long must the public watch Jang's shameless behavior? Jang must provide a clear explanation to the public regarding his son's Grade 4 physical classification."
