[Asia Economy Reporter Park Cheol-eung] Busan Participation Solidarity stated regarding the petition submitted to the police about the LCT preferential sales list, "There were members of the National Assembly, city councilors, and district councilors."


Yang Mi-sook, Secretary General of Busan Participation Solidarity, appeared on YTN Radio's 'Hwang Bo-seon's Start of a New Morning' on the 11th and said, "Judging by the list and detailed contents, it seems to have been created by the LCT side, and even looking at the explanatory materials from LCT, it appears to be data made by LCT."


When asked if she had seen the document, she replied, "I glanced at it briefly for the interview," adding, "There were some predictable parts and some unusual parts. There were many from the economic sector, and while there were expected names, there were also parts that made me wonder why such people were included."


She continued, "They are bureaucrats and politicians," and said, "There are current officials as well as former ones." Secretary General Yang said, "There were members of the National Assembly, city councilors, and district councilors. It could be people with the same names, but since the petition has been submitted to the police, I think there is a need for a swift and thorough investigation into those aspects."


She also mentioned, "It seems to be data created in 2015, and at that time, there were the most members of the National Assembly."


Busan Participation Solidarity had previously accused 43 people in 2017 of preferential treatment in the special supply of LCT. Regarding this, Secretary General Yang said, "The 43 people were specified only for the special supply, so the number was specified, but the names were not. Therefore, they were accused as unidentified persons." She added, "There were a few individuals presumed to be included among the 43, and I only confirmed those parts. Without knowing all 43 people, it seems that 3-4 overlap."



She continued, "There is some overlap between what we speculated or learned during the investigation process, but since the 43 people cannot be specifically identified, it is difficult to definitively say there is overlap between the lists. It is our assumption."
