Earlier, Yoon expressed anger toward the media and prosecutors regarding the death of Mr. A, the director of the Justice and Memory Foundation's Mapo Shelter (Our House of Peace).

On the 7th, she wrote on her Facebook, "Reporters set up cameras outside the gate and broadcast live, making it seem as if the shelter was a den of criminals, and the prosecutors raided the shelter and conducted a search."

She continued, "Every day, the pressure made me feel like a criminal even though I am not one, and I was tormented by the constant ringing of the phone. How hard must it have been to endure all of that alone?"

Then Yoon said, "I thought I had no place to retreat or sidestep, so I had no choice but to move forward and endured it, but I was so focused on my own blood drying up that I failed to notice the director's blood drying up. I was so caught up in wrestling with my soul being destroyed that I couldn't look after the director's soul."
