[Asia Economy Reporters Kang Nahum and Jeon Jinyoung] Yoon Mihyang, the elected member of the Democratic Party of Korea, on the 29th explained the controversy over the high-price purchase of the Anseong Healing Center, stating, "The building was newly constructed, and the landscaping matched the purpose of the Healing Center. Considering the convenient transportation, it was purchased at a reasonable price."


At a press conference held at the National Assembly that day, Yoon said, "At that time, the builder listed the property for 900 million won, claiming that construction costs were 770 million won, but after hearing the purpose of the Healing Center, we agreed on 750 million won."



Regarding the low-price sale of the Healing Center, she added, "At the time of sale, considering housing depreciation, decline in building value, and fluctuations in surrounding real estate prices, it was sold for 420 million won. Although it was regrettable to sell the building, there had been no buyers for five years, so we could not delay the contract that was difficult to finalize."
