Ha Tae-kyung: "Only Yoon Seok-yeol Sold Real Estate... If Cut, Not a Single Pro-Moon Member Would Remain"
Yoon Seok-yeol Sold Housing in Songpa-gu in 2018
18 of 64 Blue House Aides Are Multiple Homeowners
[Asia Economy Intern Reporter Lim Juhyung] Ha Tae-kyung, a member of the Future United Party, claimed regarding the ruling party's pressure on Prosecutor General Yoon Seok-yeol, "If Prosecutor General Yoon is removed, there will not be a single true pro-Moon (親文) who faithfully carries out President Moon Jae-in's orders."
On the 3rd, Ha wrote on his Facebook, "The ruling party's fierce offensive to drive out Prosecutor General Yoon has begun as a full-scale attack by sycophants trying to expel the true pro-Moon who faithfully executes the president's orders," he said.
Earlier, it was revealed late that Prosecutor General Yoon, who owned one apartment each in Seocho-gu and Songpa-gu, Seoul, sold the Songpa-gu property in 2018 and became a single-homeowner, drawing attention. Since the Moon Jae-in administration took office, the Blue House has consistently sent the message that 'high-ranking officials who own multiple homes should either sell them or register them for rental,' but many aides still own multiple homes, which is being compared to this case.
The Citizens' Coalition for Economic Justice announced on the 1st that, after analyzing the assets of 64 senior Blue House officials disclosed from March to June, eight people owned two or more homes in the metropolitan area, and when expanded to include local areas, the total increased to 18 people, accounting for 28% of the total.
Ha pointed out, "The only true loyalist to President Moon is Prosecutor General Yoon," adding, "He alone has carried out the order not to create sanctuaries for power investigations and also complied with the order to sell real estate, which the Blue House aides refused to follow."

He continued, "The dismissal of loyalists by sycophants is the same now as it was in the time of Yi Sun-sin," and criticized, "It is unfortunate for both the country and the president when loyalists disappear from power institutions and only sycophants thrive."
