Choo Mi-ae: "My Son's Retirement Pay of 5 Billion Won... Impossible If His Father Was Not Kwak Sang-do"

[Asia Economy Reporter Jeon Jinyoung] Former Minister of Justice and ruling party presidential candidate Chu Mi-ae criticized Rep. Kwak Sang-do of the People Power Party on the 26th, saying, "Kwak Sang-do's enemy is Kwak Sang-do himself," in response to reports that Kwak's son received about 5 billion won as severance pay from Hwacheon Daeyu Asset Management.

On the morning of the same day, former Minister Chu wrote on her Facebook, "Rep. Kwak, who boasted that his son’s monthly salary was only about 2 to 3 million won, actually had his son receive 5 billion won from Hwacheon Daeyu," and pointed out, "If his father were not Rep. Kwak, such a lottery-type payment would not have been possible."

She continued, "Rep. Kwak claimed to be a discriminator of family privileges," and emphasized, "He was the one who funneled art support funds obtained through collusion to the president’s son. He is a person who denied artistic talent recognized by the world simply because he was the president’s son."

She added, "Therefore, according to his usual philosophy and conviction, a thorough and proper investigation must be conducted," and "Privileges, unfair advantages, and illegalities must be properly investigated."
