Kim Ki-hyun "Chu Mi-ae, Whether a Cabinet Member or a Politician... Should Step Down and Repent Herself"

[Asia Economy Reporter Lee Ji-eun] Kim Ki-hyun, a member of the Future United Party, emphasized that Justice Minister Choo Mi-ae should "resign voluntarily with a repentant heart for her shameful past."

On the 26th, Rep. Kim said, "I don't understand why the Minister of Justice in this administration is so noisy. It was like this with Cho Kuk, and now Minister Choo is doing the same."

He pointed out, "Watching their disgraceful behavior, whether they are cabinet members or politicians, only increases my irritation. The system introduced in 2018 under the pretext of prosecutorial reform by the current administration was the 'Investigation Deliberation Committee,' but when the committee made decisions that did not suit their tastes, the ruling party collectively criticized it and denied the very reason for the committee's existence, showing a 'contradiction of self-denial' once again."

Rep. Kim said, "Although the ruling party's powers chant prosecutorial reform with their lips, their dark intentions are to turn the prosecution into loyal dogs of power, and now they openly reveal this without even considering public opinion. Watching this incident, it has become very clear, even to a child, what purpose the Public Corruption Investigation Office, which the president is hastily leading, is being pursued for."

He stated, "From the beginning, this case was a fabricated operation to forcibly remove Prosecutor General Yoon Seok-youl by mobilizing some political prosecutors dreaming of sudden promotion under Minister Choo," and criticized, "Minister Choo, who fabricated the non-existent 'collusion between prosecution and media' and even exercised an absurd investigative directive, is truly pitiful."

Rep. Kim criticized, "Minister Choo, who was disliked by Moon Jae-in supporters due to her 'criminal record' for leading the impeachment of Roh Moo-hyun, took reckless measures to extend her political life. While her series of actions, such as trying to show her presence with excessive Hollywood-style actions during the National Assembly's government questioning, are somewhat understandable, she has now left an indelible disgraceful stain on South Korea's judicial system."
