[Asia Economy Reporter Lim Chun-han] On the 5th, Park Beom-gye, a member of the Democratic Party of Korea, said to Cho Jae-yeon, Chief of the Court Administration Office and Supreme Court Justice, at the National Assembly Judiciary Committee’s full budget review meeting, "Members, please save the budget once. Just once." Park mentioned the budget for the 'Beopgoeul LX' project, a collection of court precedents, which was cut from 30 million won last year to zero, advising Cho’s 'earnest appeal.'

Park said, "The Judiciary Committee thoroughly reviews even budgets smaller than a single bridge or road," adding, "Beopgoeul LX is a collection of materials with a proud tradition. Shouldn’t we save it?"

When Cho asked, "Please take a close look during the National Assembly discussions," Park replied, "Please speak earnestly, even if it’s just 30 million won." He continued, "That’s how it works. Say, 'Members, please save it. It’s truly necessary for the people. It’s only the amount equivalent to a single bridge or a deck plate.' Just say it once."

When Cho only smiled, Park laughed and said, "Please save it, it would be over with just one word. It’s really frustrating," then concluded his inquiry by saying, "Justice, I will do it on your behalf."
