[Asia Economy Reporter Kim Hyung-min] Recently, regarding the investigation into the 'Geomeon Yuchak' case, Justice Minister Chu Mi-ae, who exercised her authority to direct the investigation, reiterated her determination not to back down while waiting for Prosecutor General Yoon Seok-yeol's response. This is interpreted as her intention to push forward according to her plan regardless of the conclusion Yoon reaches.


On the 8th, Minister Chu posted on her social media (SNS) Facebook, "It is a quiet morning at the mountain temple. With the birchwood prayer beads given by the monk, I cut off my worries and embrace the morning energy," adding, "No matter how many countless worries I have, my thoughts only reach the point of not turning back from the right path." In the accompanying photo, Minister Chu is seen standing at a distance, gazing at a temple. It is known that she took two days off the previous day and is resting at an undisclosed location.



Earlier, on the 2nd, Minister Chu directed in writing to suspend the procedure of the expert investigation advisory panel regarding the Geomeon Yuchak investigation and to conduct an independent investigation by the investigative team not under the supervision of the Supreme Prosecutors' Office. In response, Prosecutor General Yoon decided not to proceed with the expert investigation advisory panel meeting scheduled for the 3rd and gathered with the chief prosecutors nationwide to collect opinions. The opinions of the chief prosecutors were compiled and reported to Prosecutor General Yoon on the 6th. It is known that Yoon is currently deliberating his final stance.
