[Asia Economy Reporter Park Cheol-eung] Yoon Mi-hyang, the elected member of the Democratic Party of Korea, stated regarding family suspicions including her daughter's study abroad funds, "Almost all of it was covered by my husband's criminal compensation and damages," and added, "The remaining insufficient costs were covered by my money and my family's money."


At a press conference held at the National Assembly Communication Office on the 29th, Yoon said, "I will address the suspicion that the source of the money used for my daughter's study abroad in the U.S. was Jeong Dae-hyeop, and that I embezzled Jeong Dae-hyeop's money to pay for my daughter's study abroad expenses."


She continued, "For reference, the total criminal compensation and damages received by my husband and our family amount to about 240 million won," and explained, "I have a long-standing habit of saving when I receive a salary. It was my own minimum way of living to prepare a house, pay for my daughter's tuition, and dream of a somewhat stable life."



She said that special income such as lectures, manuscripts, and book royalties through activities with Jeonguiyeon and Jeong Dae-hyeop has been donated.
