View original image[Asia Economy Reporter Kum Bo-ryeong] Jo Seong-eun, the whistleblower in the prosecution's 'accusation solicitation suspicion,' expressed opinions such as calling 'accusation solicitation' a 'bizarre term' and 'unbelievable.'
On the 22nd, Jo stated on Facebook, "Is it really possible to connect the word 'solicitation' with reporting to investigative agencies that the prosecutor organization seriously violated the obligation of political neutrality during the legal election period of the general election and committed election interference crimes?"
Jo continued, "If during the Moon Jae-in administration, Prosecutor General Kim Oh-soo had created an accusation against opposition politicians and handed it to the ruling party during the general election period, and if the Democratic Party presidential candidate had announced their candidacy, what would people have said?" He added, "Looking at the sophistries people are currently making, I can only give a bitter smile." This is interpreted as a critique of former Prosecutor General Yoon Seok-youl.

Jo also said, "Seeing people chasing after a handful of power, trying to systematically cover up and water down the national disgrace crime by talking about cat names or travel bans, I wonder how it has come to this state," adding, "It is unbelievable that by creating and spreading one bizarre term, the word 'accusation solicitation' is used on par with the crime of national disgrace."
