Minister Park stated at the National Assembly Judiciary Committee's current issues inquiry, "More than 100 audio files have been shared by court order," explaining this.

Minister Park said, "Whether on this side or that side, investigations and judicial processing regarding preferential treatment and lobbying based on the recordings related to the Daejang-dong case have been conducted in a balanced manner, so such contents cannot be concealed," adding, "Therefore, investigative agencies must thoroughly uncover the truth."
