[Asia Economy Reporter Na Ye-eun] Professor Seo Min of Dankook University College of Medicine, co-author of the 'Black Book on Cho Kuk,' posted a message stating that 'Yoon Seok-yeol's suspension was justified,' prompting former Lee Jae-myung campaign spokesperson Hyun Geun-taek to directly criticize, "Are you slowly preparing to escape?"

Earlier, Professor Seo, known as a representative 'post-progressive' figure, posted on his Naver blog on the 14th an article titled 'Yoon Seok-yeol's suspension was justified,' expressing, "I am disappointed in him (former Prosecutor General Yoon) for the first time."

He wrote, "Yoon's side defines this ruling as a 'disciplinary action that did not follow proper procedures,' and they say they will appeal by finding parts the court misunderstood," adding, "I apologize for having insulted Choo Mi-ae in this matter. I didn't know at the time, but former Prosecutor General Yoon abused prosecutorial power." He also included the hashtag '#Suddenly worried if candidate Yoon can win the presidential election.'

After reading this post, former spokesperson Hyun shared a related article on his Facebook on the 15th, saying, "(Professor Seo) sometimes says the right things," but criticized, "Are you slowly preparing to escape? Isn't it too soon for someone who used to put up photos and appear on broadcasts?"

In response, Professor Seo posted on Facebook an article titled 'Escape is for you,' stating, "I've never seen former spokesperson Hyun say anything right, and this time is no different," and asked, "Do you abandon your wife just because you are briefly disappointed?"

He added, "It seems you should be the one to escape. The governor you support will likely be dropped as a candidate soon. Even if you escape now, it's already too late. Former Democratic Party leader Lee Nak-yeon won't accept you," he added.

Professor Seo also wrote on his blog, "It is absurd to interpret my writing as a withdrawal of support for candidate Yoon. I am loyal only to people. Candidate Yoon was a benefactor who gave me hope during those harsh times," and added, "If Seok-yeol hyung is cut off from TV, then I can't help it, but if not, I will continue to promote candidate Yoon."
