[Asia Economy Reporter Lee Ji-eun] Professor Kim Geun-sik of Gyeongnam University criticized Democratic Party lawmaker Jin Seong-jun's remark that "house prices will not fall," saying, "Isn't this defamation against President Moon, who vowed to control real estate prices?"

Professor Kim, who is serving as the chairman of the hearing advisory group for Park Ji-won, the nominee for the National Intelligence Service director from the United Future Party, said on Facebook on the 17th, "As expected, he was a 'lip-progressive'."

He criticized, "When the sexual harassment allegations against the late Mayor Park Won-soon of Seoul were treated as established facts, he shamelessly claimed it was defamation of the deceased, showing blatant hypocrisy. In the live broadcast, he passionately insisted that real estate prices could be controlled and speculation stopped, but he himself confessed failure, which goes beyond honesty to the height of frivolity."

Professor Kim added, "It is a blatant display of the double consciousness of a false progressive who knows something is wrong but insists with words that it is right. Isn't it defamation against President Moon, who confidently vowed in the National Assembly on the same day to definitely control real estate? Now, it is neither surprising nor bearable to watch."
