[Asia Economy Intern Reporter Min Jun-young] Ju Ok-sun, the representative of the 'Mom Corps,' who was diagnosed with COVID-19 after attending a rally in Gwanghwamun, Seoul on the 15th and is currently undergoing isolation treatment, announced that she will take legal action against Eunpyeong-gu, Seoul, which disclosed her real name and movement path.

On the 26th, Ju held a live broadcast titled "Prime Minister Jeong Sye-kyun is useless, same old story, quit immediately" on her YouTube channel 'Ju Ok-sun TV Mom Broadcast.'

During the broadcast, she said, "Eunpyeong-gu Office disclosed the confirmed patient Ju Ok-sun, including my name. This is unacceptable," and added, "Did the head of Eunpyeong-gu Office mention my name publicly to flatter the president just because I criticized him?"

She continued, "People who oppose the current administration should never allow their names to be disclosed like this," and said, "I am currently in the hospital, but I will have someone else submit a complaint today."

She also stated, "I did not refuse to cooperate with the quarantine authorities in disclosing my movement information at all," adding, "I was diagnosed positive on the 19th, and on the 20th, the health center asked for my card number and vehicle number to track my movements, so I provided them. Although I was reluctant to give my card number, I gave all the information."

Furthermore, she said, "I even disclosed where my car was. I had no reason to hide my movements, so of course I shared them. I don't understand why the media said I did not disclose my movements," and added, "Also, the claim that I only answered 2 out of 28 calls is a complete lie. They are portraying me as someone who did not cooperate at all."

Additionally, Ju claimed that the government is responsible for the spread of COVID-19, stating, "We got sick because the administration 100% failed in quarantine. They are still accepting Chinese people now?are they out of their minds?"

Earlier, on the 22nd, Eunpyeong-gu Office specified on its blog that the infection route for confirmed patients number 130 and 131 in Eunpyeong-gu was "contact with a confirmed patient in Gyeonggi-do (Ju Ok-sun)."

In this regard, Ha Tae-kyung, a member of the Future United Party, criticized on his Facebook on the 24th, saying, "A local government led by a Democratic Party leader disclosed the confirmed patient information using numbers but revealed only the real name of Ju Ok-sun, the representative of the Mom Corps. They deleted it only after criticism. It seems that human rights under the Moon Jae-in administration exist only for their side, that is, pro-Moon."
