Hyungjun Ahn, CEO of MBC, has been sent to prosecution without detention on charges of obstruction of business.


On the 15th, the Mapo Police Station in Seoul announced that they had sent CEO Ahn to prosecution without detention on the 11th on suspicion of obstructing CJ ENM's internal audit work.


According to the police, in 2016, when CJ ENM's PD Kwak was undergoing an internal audit on suspicion of receiving shares of a partner company for free, CEO Ahn responded to CJ ENM's fact-checking request by claiming that the shares belonged to him, thereby allegedly obstructing CJ ENM's business.


The MBC Labor Union (the 3rd union) filed a complaint with the police against CEO Ahn in March on these charges.



The police also applied obstruction of business charges to Kwak and sent him to the prosecution without detention. It is known that CEO Ahn and Kwak have a personal friendship.
