[Asia Economy (Suwon) = Reporter Lee Young-gyu] Lee Jae-myung, Governor of Gyeonggi Province, criticized former Prosecutor General Yoon Seok-yeol, saying he is only engaging in "packaging politics with unknown contents." Lee further argued that if Yoon intends to enter politics, he should quickly come before the people and reveal the contents inside his packaging.


On the 20th, Lee made these remarks in response to questions from reporters about former Prosecutor General Yoon Seok-yeol at the 'National Assembly Forum for Korea's Growth and Fairness' (Success Forum) held at the BIZ Hall on the first floor of the Korea Federation of SMEs building in Yeouido, Seoul.


He particularly pointed out, "I have never once seen what that person (Yoon Seok-yeol) is thinking," adding, "Consumers (the people) judge by looking at the contents, but these days, I can only see the packaging, so I have no idea."


Furthermore, he advised, "I think (former Prosecutor General Yoon) will enter politics soon, but it is the duty of anyone who wants to become a politician or engage in politics to show everything to the people and receive their judgment."



He also added, "To judge (former Prosecutor General Yoon), you have to see the substance," and "You have to try it out, but since he only shows the packaging, the pretty parts, it is difficult to say more."
