[Asia Economy Reporter Yoon Seul-gi] When Yoon Seok-yeol, the presidential candidate of the People Power Party, appointed former lawmaker Kim Seong-tae, who is on trial over allegations of preferential hiring of his daughter at KT, as the head of the Professional Affairs Headquarters, Jeon Yong-gi, spokesperson for the Democratic Party's election campaign committee, raised his voice, asking, "What was Yoon Seok-yeol candidate's fairness?"

On the 25th, Spokesperson Jeon issued a statement saying, "Is it ignorance, or is it mocking the youth?"

Spokesperson Jeon criticized, "What was the fairness that the People Power Party and candidate Yoon Seok-yeol, who are lenient toward selective fairness and selective anger, and the KT daughter preferential hiring, spoke of?" He added, "It shows the pinnacle of 'out-of-body experience.' The public's anger is wasted on the habitual hypocrisy and lies of the People Power Party."

He pointed out, "The court ruled in the second trial that 'providing employment opportunities to the daughter living with former lawmaker Kim Seong-tae is socially equivalent to Kim receiving economic benefits as a bribe,' and sentenced him guilty. At that time, the KT regular employee open recruitment competition rate was 81 to 1. Thinking of the young applicants who stayed up all night preparing for employment, anger naturally wells up. Setting other things aside, employment requests abusing power are a vicious crime mocking 'sincere effort.'"

He added, "Corruption can only be answered by the principle of zero tolerance. Yet, they blatantly appointed a 'suspect of power-type hiring corruption.'"

Finally, Spokesperson Jeon questioned candidate Yoon, saying, "At the time of his candidacy declaration, candidate Yoon said, 'I will take the lead so that forces that undermine fairness and common sense, and deny freedom and the rule of law, do not extend their rule to cause suffering to the people anymore.' Is candidate Yoon keeping his word?"
