Former President Choi Seung-ho's Article
Park Dae-chul: "Their Exclusive Broadcasting Omnipotence"

Park Dae-chul, the Policy Committee Chairman of the People Power Party, criticized former MBC President Choi Seung-ho's remark that "the issue of public broadcasting control is far more important than the stabbing incident and the Jamboree incident" as "chilling."


On the 4th, former President Choi wrote on his Facebook, "President Yoon Seok-yeol is attempting illegal and unlawful efforts to simultaneously control public broadcasters KBS and MBC, but the media coverage seems utterly indifferent," adding, "While the public should be aware of incidents like the stabbing in Bundang, the Jamboree, and the heatwave, the issue of public broadcasting control is a far more important problem that completely destroys the foundation of our society. In terms of importance, it is incomparable."

In response, Policy Committee Chairman Park said, "I couldn't believe my eyes," and criticized, "I am chilled by their broadcasting omnipotence." He added, "Following 'disrespect towards elders' and 'presidential rudeness,' now even people are being sidelined," and said, "It seems the reckless DNA is spreading inside and outside the Democratic Party." Former President Choi served as MBC President during the Moon Jae-in administration.



Chairman Park further stated, "Despite innocent citizens being stabbed in 'random crimes' and the whole world paying attention to the Jamboree event amid an abnormal heatwave, they seem to consider these matters secondary," adding, "Left-wing broadcasting and the broadcasting union of the Korean Confederation of Trade Unions cannot be above the people. Human life and safety come before public broadcasting. They are ten thousand, a hundred million times more important."
