[Asia Economy Reporter Lim Chun-han] On the 25th, the United Future Party held the first meeting of the 'Comfort Women Grandmothers' Victim Truth Investigation TF' to probe allegations against Yoon Mi-hyang, the elected member of the Democratic Party of Korea. The TF chairman is Assemblyman Kwak Sang-do, and members appointed include Assemblyman Park Sung-joong and elected members Kim Byung-wook, Kim Eun-hye, and Hwang Bo-seung-hee. From the Future Korea Party, elected members Yoon Chang-hyun and Jeon Ju-hye will also participate in the truth investigation.

Joo Ho-young, the floor leader, said at the TF meeting held at the National Assembly in the afternoon, "I saw the second press conference of (Grandmother Lee Yong-soo) this afternoon. How frustrated must she have been to hold the microphone and express her anger at her age over ninety?" He added, "As a member of the public, I cannot help but feel anger at the desperate cries that they were foolishly used and that the comfort women grandmothers were exploited."

Floor leader Joo said, "The United Future Party will thoroughly investigate all suspicions from the victim's perspective," and added, "If the suspicions are not resolved, we will consider pushing for a parliamentary audit and seek solutions."

Lee Jong-bae, chairman of the Policy Committee, said, "As a member of the public, I cannot help but feel anger at (Grandmother Lee's) passionate outburst," and added, "We will establish institutional measures to ensure that donations to civic groups are not misused."

Assemblyman Kwak pointed out, "The Korean Council for the Women Drafted for Military Sexual Slavery by Japan (Jeongdae-hyeop) has deceived the public by pretending to protect the grandmothers but has actually used them as a means to make money," and said, "For this alone, the Jeongdae-hyeop management should resign."

Assemblyman Kwak disclosed Yoon's real estate details and said, "I request the prosecution to start tracing accounts from the villa located in Suwon City in 1995."
