[Asia Economy Reporter Kim Yeon-ju] Professor Seo Min of Dankook University, co-author of the so-called 'Jo Guk Black Book,' claimed on the 14th that a scheduled lecture was canceled due to pressure from supporters of President Moon Jae-in.


Professor Seo posted on his Facebook page titled "The Power of Daekkaemun," stating, "A kind person reported to me that a Daekkaemun living in Seosan, Chungnam pressured to cancel the lecture scheduled this month," adding, "I felt relieved that the issue was resolved, but I confirmed that this country is the land of Daekkaemun (hardcore supporters of President Moon Jae-in)."


He explained, "There were humanities lectures scheduled at Seosan City Library in Chungnam on the evenings of the 20th and 27th of this month," and "One concern was that I had a lecture in Jinju at 7:30 a.m. on the 21st."


He continued, "I tend to avoid long-distance driving, but there was no public transportation from Seosan to Jinju at 9 p.m. after the lecture ended. I was debating whether to take a taxi for 400,000 won or drive myself."


He added, "This concern was resolved by the Daekkaemun. Today, the director informed me that the lecture had to be canceled," and "The director apologized, but I already knew the reason."


Along with the post, Professor Seo uploaded a screenshot of a text message containing the report.



The photo showed a netizen targeting Professor Seo, saying, "Parasite Seo Min. Your lecture was canceled in my hometown Seosan, right? I pressured that. Because I am a Daekkaemun," and "If you want to lecture, do it with your affiliated People Power Party."
