[Asia Economy Intern Reporter Kim Yeon-ju] Former Dongyang University professor Jin Joong-kwon claimed on the 27th that the prosecution's report on the possibility of re-summoning former Blue House Chief of Staff Im Jong-seok in connection with the suspicion of election interference in the Ulsan mayoral election means that the "'Cho Kuk model' remains intact, and a full-scale prosecution shake-up will begin."


In a post on his Facebook that day, Jin quoted the poem "The Silence of the Dear" by Manhae Han Yong-un, saying, "The dear has gone, but they did not let the dear go. Cho Kuk has gone, but the 'Cho Kuk model' for handling issues remains intact and will be effectively used in other investigations targeting the administration," expressing this view.


He predicted, "In particular, the election interference investigation involving the entire Blue House department will face strong resistance," adding, "A full-scale prosecution shake-up will begin."


He continued, "The parasitic party's Choi Kang-wook and Hwang Hee-seok, pro-Moon members of the Together Party, pro-government media such as Hankyoreh and OhmyNews, pro-government broadcasts including MBC, pro-government intellectuals and government-affiliated civic groups, and a very zealous Moon Jae-in fandom. It is expected that they will organize and unite to establish an anti-prosecution frame and launch a relentless offensive," he claimed.



He also criticized, "In the process, all the misconducts uncovered by journalists' investigations will be dismissed as 'prosecution media play.' On the other hand, they will exaggerate the mother-in-law issue to stir up calls for the prosecution chief's resignation. Truly disgusting people."
