[Asia Economy Reporter Lee Ji-eun] Regarding Rep. Hwang Hee of the Democratic Party of Korea revealing the real name of the duty soldier who raised allegations of preferential treatment in leave for the son of Minister of Justice Chu Mi-ae, he explained, "I was not the first to disclose the duty soldier's real name."


Earlier, Rep. Hwang disclosed the duty soldier's real name and claimed that "a reckless child playing with fire in the mountains burned down the entire mountain," and "it would not be a lone offender," but after facing criticism, he revised the post to replace the real name with "current sergeant" and removed the expression "lone offender."



In response to the continued criticism, he rebutted in a Facebook comment, "I did not disclose the real name; TV Chosun did so when attacking Minister Chu with false information."
