Jang Je-won Resigns as Chief of Yoon Camp's General Office... "Reflecting on the Sin of Raising Children Poorly"
[Asia Economy Reporter Lee Hyun-joo] On the 28th, Jang Je-won, a member of the People Power Party, announced that he would "step down from the position of Chief of Staff for former Prosecutor General Yoon Seok-yeol's campaign."
On the same day, Jang stated on his Facebook, "I have no face to show the public and feel deeply sorry to candidate Yoon Seok-yeol. Ultimately, I am stepping down without obtaining the candidate's permission."
Earlier, controversy arose over Jang's son, rapper Noel (real name Jang Yong-jun), who was accused of assaulting a police officer who requested a breathalyzer test after driving without a license. He immediately expressed his intention to resign to former Prosecutor General Yoon, but it was reported that Yoon rejected the resignation.
