[Asia Economy Reporter Kim Hyung-min] The prosecution, investigating the so-called 'Daejang-dong Development Privilege' suspicion case, summoned former Hwacheon Daeyu CEO Lee Seong-moon for questioning on the 6th.


According to the legal community, the dedicated investigation team of the Seoul Central District Prosecutors' Office summoned former CEO Lee around 9 a.m. that day.


The investigation team is reportedly questioning former CEO Lee about the overall process, from the establishment of Hwacheon Daeyu to the promotion of the Daejang-dong project.


Subsequently, on the same day, the prosecution also summoned Lee Han-seong, CEO of Cheonhwa Dongin No. 1, which is known to be 100% owned by Hwacheon Daeyu, for questioning. Lee was a former aide to former Uri Party lawmaker Lee Hwa-young.


The prosecution plans to question Lee about the actual ownership relationship of Cheonhwa Dongin No. 1 and the use of profits earned from Cheonhwa Dongin No. 1's investment in the Daejang-dong development.


Kim Moon-gi, Head of Development Division 1 at Seongnam Urban Development Corporation, is also scheduled to be questioned by the prosecution in the afternoon. Kim was responsible for the practical management of the Daejang-dong development until early this year.



In particular, he is identified as one of the key figures in suspicion for having participated as an evaluation committee member when the Hana Bank consortium, which Hwacheon Daeyu was involved in, was selected as the preferred negotiator. He also served as an outside director representing Seongnam Urban Development Corporation at the project operator 'Seongnam Utddeul'.
