[Asia Economy Reporter Park Cheol-eung] The controversy over Oh Se-hoon, the People Power Party's candidate for Seoul mayor, and the land in Naegok-dong is intensifying between the ruling and opposition parties.

On the 29th, Kim Tae-nyeon, acting leader of the Democratic Party of Korea and floor leader, stated at the Central Election Countermeasures Meeting, "Yesterday, there was a report that the head of the surveying team from the Korea Land and Geospatial Informatix Corporation testified that candidate Oh Se-hoon was present at the site during the land survey in Naegok-dong in June 2005," emphasizing, "The essence of this case is that he lied about the 'self-compensation' suspicion regarding the Naegok-dong land." He made 'lying' the main point of attack. Kim reiterated, "Oh should not deceive voters with false explanations, but take responsibility for his words and resign."

Oh's in-laws applied for information disclosure from the Korea Land and Geospatial Informatix Corporation on the same day to prove that Oh was not present at the site during the Naegok-dong land survey. The decision on information disclosure will be made within 10 business days.

Oh appeared on YTN Radio that day and said, "There should be a report related to the survey issue. It will record who requested the survey and who was present at the site," adding, "Documents are the most accurate. Once the documents come out, all explanations will be concluded."

He continued, "They want to focus on irrelevant matters and label me a liar if any factual discrepancies appear in my explanations, but that is not the essence of the matter," he countered.
