[Asia Economy reporters Seunggon Han and intern Yeonju Kim] Former Dongyang University professor Jin Joong-kwon predicted on the 27th that "if this report is true, the repercussions will be enormous," regarding the report that a key executive at the Seoul Central District Prosecutors' Office was identified as the person who induced distorted reporting related to KBS's false report on the 'media-prosecution collusion.'

On the same day, Professor Jin wrote on his Facebook, "Is the operation force finally about to be revealed? The report says that the high-ranking official at the Seoul Central District Prosecutors' Office was the one who delivered fabricated content to KBS," expressing this view.

Professor Jin claimed, "From media-prosecution collusion to power-media collusion," adding, "Ahead of the investigation review committee, they likely tried to solidify the conspiracy theory they created as an alternative reality by mobilizing KBS and MBC."

He pointed out, "In the end, they themselves were involved in the 'media-prosecution collusion,'" and "The real dirty collusion is not between the Yoon Seok-yeol prosecution and Channel A, but rather between Lee Sung-yoon of the Seoul Central District Prosecutors' Office and KBS."

He further explained, "The Seoul Central District Prosecutors' Office is more like the regime's attack dog, that is, just a henchman of the Ministry of Justice under Choo Mi-ae, so although it is called media-prosecution collusion, it is actually 'power-media collusion.' When public opinion started to flow strangely, they leaked the lie to KBS that 'in the latter part of the recording, there is a passage encouraging and instructing threatening reporting' to make the conspiracy theory scenario a fait accompli."

He continued, "In any case, the Southern District Prosecutors' Office must uncover not only the manipulation of public opinion through KBS but also the circumstances of the two distorted reports and fabricated broadcasts by MBC," emphasizing, "Moreover, the 'operation' forces who planned, executed, and supported this outrageous nationwide fraud, including the activation of the investigation command authority, regardless of whether they are prosecutors or lawmakers, regardless of rank, must all be exposed and arrested."
