[Asia Economy Reporter Lim Chun-han] On the 12th, the Future Korea Party criticized Yoon Mi-hyang, the elected member of the Democratic Citizens' Party, for calling the various allegations surrounding herself and the Justice and Memory Foundation (Jeonguiyeon) "unfair attacks by pro-Japanese forces," stating, "If she is truly confident in the truth, she should clarify all the allegations herself, but instead, she seems to be trying only to shift the focus."

Cho Su-jin, spokesperson for the Korea Party, said in a statement that day, "Many citizens must have woken up this morning thinking of former Minister of Justice Cho Kuk when seeing Yoon's behavior."

Spokesperson Cho pointed out, "Trying to counterattack the various allegations against herself and her children as 'fake news' or denouncing the media that seeks the substantive truth by saying 'In a democracy, reporters ruin individuals' lives'?aren't these all scenes we saw at the beginning of the Cho Kuk incident?" He added, "It is also surprising that Yoon's daughter received a scholarship, and a full scholarship at that, from an American university known for being stingy with scholarships, just like Cho Kuk's son."

Spokesperson Cho stated, "Jeonguiyeon refuses to disclose the use of donation funds. On the contrary, they claim, 'Why is disclosure not demanded from corporations? This is harsh,' which is nothing short of audacity," adding, "A group that has lived by upholding justice pretends not to know such common sense, which is simply astonishing."

Spokesperson Cho addressed the Democratic Party of Korea, saying, "Grandmother Lee Yong-soo is a victim of the Japanese military sexual slavery. The ruling party should be the most proactive in resolving the questions raised by her," and added, "Considering the allegations raised so far by Grandmother Lee regarding Jeonguiyeon and Yoon Mi-hyang, she is another level of victim."
