[Asia Economy Reporter Lim Chun-han] Former People Power Party lawmaker Yoo Seung-min criticized President Moon Jae-in on the 28th for saying, "There are concerns in some quarters that our country did not secure enough vaccines or that vaccinations will be delayed. This is not true," calling it "quite an impressive case of mental victory."


On Facebook that day, former lawmaker Yoo said, "The president said today that it is not true that vaccinations were delayed due to failure to secure vaccines. And as always, he was busy boasting that K-quarantine is the global standard."


Yoo pointed out, "It is painful for the people to watch a president who insists that something everyone knows is not true. How should we understand the president?does he really believe that, or is he so calm knowing it is a lie?"



He added, "The president, who has mentally convinced himself that even if the saying 'The king's ears are donkey ears' echoes in the internet bamboo forest, it is not true, has unfortunately become a target of ridicule and contempt. Is it really so difficult for President Moon Jae-in to acknowledge the facts and reflect on his mistakes?"
