[Asia Economy Reporter Kim Choyoung] Accountant Kim Kyung-yul, a graduate of Participatory Women's University, criticized Ko Eun-kwang-soon, who posted a seemingly derogatory message about former Prosecutor General Yoon Seok-yeol and his wife Kim Gun-hee on social networking services (SNS), calling it "the true face of a women's activist." Ko Eun-kwang-soon is a women's activist and former representative of the Citizens for the Abolition of the Hoju System.


On the same day, Accountant Kim shared Ko's Facebook post, saying, "Ko.Eun.Gwang.Soon. Thank you for coming out. You are now witnessing the so-called true face of a representative women's activist."


Earlier, on the 30th of last month, Ko posted on her Facebook, "Tteok-yeol, you are brave. Ignorance, lack of empathy, lack of historical awareness, and unauthorized judgment," adding, "That's why you live with Julie. So Gun-hee felt inferior to the professor's wife."


'Julie' is the alias used for Kim Gun-hee, wife of former Prosecutor General Yoon, in the so-called 'Yoon Seok-yeol X-file,' which alleges that Kim was a hostess in Gangnam, Seoul. Kim recently strongly denied the allegations in a media interview, saying, "(At that time, I was busy with studies, etc., so) even if I wanted to be Julie, I had no time."



Meanwhile, criticism of the 'Julie' offensive is also emerging within the progressive camp. Kang Min-jin, leader of the Youth Justice Party, criticized former Minister of Justice Choo Mi-ae, who said in a radio interview the day before that she had "heard of Julie," saying, "Do we have to degrade politics this much?"
