He added, "The prosecutors who rose like wildfire to defend justice, Deputy Prosecutor General Cho Nam-gwan and Deputy Minister Ko Ki-young of the Supreme Prosecutors' Office, all high prosecutors, regional district prosecutors, chief prosecutors, Prosecutor Lee Jeong-hwa dispatched from the Ministry of Justice who revealed the illegality of the inspection, and the inspection committee members who fulfilled their roles until the end have shown that justice in the Republic of Korea is alive."
