Democratic Party lawmaker Go Min-jung claimed that Lee Jun-seok, leader of the People Power Party, advocating for the abolition of the Ministry of Gender Equality and Family and the Ministry of Unification, is intended to cover up suspicions related to Yoon Seok-yeol, a leading opposition presidential candidate and former prosecutor general.

[Asia Economy Reporter Hwang Sumi] Go Min-jung, a member of the Democratic Party of Korea, claimed that Lee Jun-seok, leader of the People Power Party, advocating for the abolition of the Ministry of Gender Equality and Family and the Ministry of Unification, is an attempt to cover up suspicions related to Yoon Seok-youl, a leading opposition presidential candidate and former Prosecutor General.

On the 10th, Go stated on her Facebook, "(Lee) a few days ago said the Ministry of Gender Equality and Family should be abolished, and now he says the Ministry of Unification should be abolished," expressing this view.

Go directed her remarks at Lee, saying, "Governing the country is not an online game. It requires complex calculations involving various interests, realistic situations, and preparations for the future," adding, "I don't think Lee is ignorant enough not to know this." She further claimed, "It seems Lee wanted to cover something up."

Additionally, Go mentioned various suspicions surrounding Yoon's mother-in-law and wife. She said, "Various allegations surrounding Yoon's wife are pouring out like sweet potato vines," and "Lee defended Yoon by saying that South Korea does not have a system of collective punishment."

She continued, "No citizen would agree to not scrutinize someone who has stepped forward to become the president of this country. It seems like an attempt to cover an issue with another issue," adding, "However, the truth does not disappear because of that."

Earlier, on the 9th, Lee mentioned the abolition of the Ministry of Unification in a CBS radio interview, saying, "It is inefficient that foreign affairs and unification duties are separated." Regarding the Ministry of Gender Equality and Family, he also argued, "Having the Ministry of Gender Equality and Family did not resolve gender conflicts. Rather, gender conflicts worsened while the ministry existed."
