[Asia Economy Reporter Lim Cheol-young] Seoul Mayor Oh Se-hoon demanded an apology from former Prime Minister Chung Sye-kyun, who criticized the government through Seoul Deputy Mayor Kim Do-sik.


On the 15th, Mayor Oh wrote on his Facebook, "The two main points mentioned by former Prime Minister Chung are not true," adding, "It is somewhat unexpected that he was not cautious as usual."


The previous day, former Prime Minister Chung wrote on Facebook, "The Seoul Deputy Mayor for Political Affairs harshly criticized the president regarding quarantine measures. Regardless of whether the claim is right or wrong, it is a very regrettable way," and pointed out, "Mayor Oh himself shirked responsibility for quarantine issues and instead criticized the government by putting others forward, which is truly shameless behavior."


He continued, "Hiding behind someone else (Deputy Mayor Kim Do-sik) seems to refer to the Seoul Deputy Mayor for Political Affairs' statement incident the day before, but if you investigate, you will find that it is not true to the extent that you should apologize to me," he emphasized.


He added, "If you feel sorry after learning the facts, please quietly take down the post. I will accept it as an apology," and said, "I will take to heart the good advice you gave me as a former quarantine commander through a public message," and "I will correct the false facts. Please help me focus quietly on my work."


He also expressed his position on the basic income and guaranteed income debate with Governor Lee Jae-myung. Mayor Oh said, "The claim that I nitpicked Governor Lee Jae-myung's words is also not true," and explained, "It seems to refer to the basic income and guaranteed income debate with Governor Lee. If you look closely at the sequence of the Facebook exchanges, I responded afterward to several provocative attacks by Governor Lee."
