[Asia Economy Reporter Lim Chun-han] On the 11th, the People Power Party commented on the controversy surrounding Yoon Young-chan, a member of the Democratic Party of Korea, and his 'Kakao news editing pressure text messages,' saying, "Is this the power of the Moon Jae-in administration's media control algorithm?" and "Why have the overflowing Yoon Young-chan news articles already disappeared from the front page of the portal when searched today?"


Bae Hyun-jin, the floor spokesperson for the People Power Party, said in a statement on the same day, "This is the so-called Drukgate."


Spokesperson Bae pointed out, "The People Power Party views the current scandal involving Representative Yoon as evidence of the Moon Jae-in administration's obsession with portal censorship and media control," adding, "Isn't this the bad habit that could no longer be hidden, suddenly bursting out as the so-called Drukgate, not Druking?"



Spokesperson Bae also said, "We will not let this incident fade away as the ruling party wishes," and "Through this year's national audit, we will thoroughly expose the reality of the Moon Jae-in administration's public opinion manipulation and their exclusive algorithms, which involved appointing personnel from major portal companies, and inform the public in detail."
