[Asia Economy Reporter Hwang Sumi] Former Dongyang University professor Jin Joong-kwon criticized lawyer Jeong Cheol-seung, the legal representative of the family of the late former Seoul Mayor Park Won-soon, saying, "Would any sane lawyer take on such a shameless lawsuit?"

On the 5th, Jin posted on his Facebook, mentioning Park's wife Kang Nan-hee, saying, "Why did she entrust her defense to such a person? I understand now. After searching and searching, there must have been no one else but that person," he said.

He added, "Mrs. Kang Nan-hee and that lawyer completely erase even the last shred of lingering attachment to Park Won-soon."

Jin also attached a link to an article related to lawyer Jeong Cheol-seung in this post. The article contains content that Jeong, who criticized the Moon Jae-in administration in an interview with Japanese media, was asked by the daughter of '100-year-old philosopher' Kim Hyung-seok, Yonsei University emeritus professor, to "please refrain from personal attacks."

Earlier, on August 9, lawyer Jeong announced his decision to sue former professor Jin for defamation of the deceased. Jeong said, "The more I write Jin Joong-kwon's complaint, the stronger it becomes, but since he repeatedly defames Mayor Park Won-soon, I have no choice. I will file it today."

In response, Jin directly replied, "Did you think I would back down?" Jin said, "You picked the wrong person," and retorted, "From the start, please go all out, Mrs. Kang Nan-hee." He continued, "The lawyer is quite adorable. As a debater, I get sued once every two months," and added sharply, "Since you sued me, now stop bothering me and just shut up."
