[Asia Economy Reporter Kim Bong-ju] Actress Kim Bu-seon mocked Seoul mayoral candidate Park Young-sun's pledge for half-price apartments by saying she "burst out laughing."


On the 19th, Kim Bu-seon posted on her SNS, "From experience, half-price maintenance fees might be possible." She expressed disbelief by saying she "burst out laughing" at Park Young-sun's pledge to become a mayor who "wipes away the sorrows of the homeless working class with half-price apartments in the 10 million won range."


Kim said, "Every time I see news about maintenance corruption like the LH scandal, I wonder if I alone refuse bribes from the management office, pretend to be clean, strictly verify maintenance fee approvals, and question if I have lived wrongly, if I have obsessive-compulsive disorder, if I am the only fool being taken advantage of. All sorts of thoughts come to mind."


She continued, "It is truly unfortunate as a Seoul citizen that there is not a single mayoral candidate who pledges to solve apartment maintenance corruption first," adding, "The qualification for apartment management office managers should be legally prohibited for those from district housing departments or former LH officials." She also wrote, "Although the government is late, it must abolish LH and immediately establish an apartment management agency."


Kim argued, "The mandatory audit law, also known as the Kim Bu-seon law, only benefits accountants," and insisted, "Seoul must immediately enforce mandatory computerized accounting records for apartments."



Finally, she introduced herself as "a former hardcore Democratic Party supporter (Daeggaemin) and a current undecided voter, Mrs. Kim from Oksu-dong."
