On the afternoon of the 29th, Yoon held a press conference at the National Assembly Communication Office and told reporters, "I will sincerely cooperate with the investigation process from now on."


When asked by a reporter, "Once you become a member of the National Assembly on the 30th, you will have immunity from arrest. Will you comply with future prosecution summons?" she replied, "I have no intention to avoid it by using my position as an excuse. I will act according to my conviction throughout the prosecution investigation process and all subsequent procedures."


Regarding the question, "Have you received a summons request from the prosecution?" she said, "I have not received one yet. Currently, activists from Jeonguiyeon are undergoing investigation."


She also addressed the details of donations to her personal account, saying, "This will be clarified by the prosecution," and explained, "The reason for receiving money in a personal account was because the matter was not for all the grandmothers."



She added, "Nevertheless, raising funds under a personal name was clearly wrong and is also a matter reported to the prosecution. I will provide clarification later."
