President Moon Jae-in on Connection with 'Beommubeobin Busan': "I Organized It When Running for National Assembly"
[Asia Economy Reporter Ryu Jeong-min] The Blue House denied allegations that it had prior knowledge of the sexual harassment case involving former Busan Mayor Oh Keo-don.
A senior Blue House official told reporters on the 28th, "Some opposition parties and media are trying to link the Blue House and the President, but President Moon Jae-in dissolved the Busan law firm when he ran for the National Assembly in 2012. They are forcibly connecting unrelated matters. It is absurd."
