CBS No Cut News ([단독]Park Soon-ae, suspected of ‘gap-jil’ by university assistant… Recently, through an exclusive report, Minister Park served as a professor at the Graduate School of Public Administration at Seoul National University, and ordered his assistants and staff to run errands unrelated to their work or to delete the records of messages he shared with him. has been reported to have exercised

In the midst of this, additional testimonies emerged that candidate Park summoned an assistant in charge and persuaded the online community of graduate students to censor reviews related to him. Also, in the past, coffee errands and cleaning manuals existed in the form of ‘documents’.

A graduate of Seoul National University’s Graduate School of Public Administration testified that “between 2019 and 2020, Candidate Park summoned the assistants one by one to the professor’s office and instructed them to access the site directly in front of them, saying, ‘Enter (in Dr. Kim’s net) ID’.” .

‘Doctor Kim’s Net’ is an Internet community that provides information about graduate school professors and labs. If you verify that you are a student through the school e-mail, you can leave a comment about the graduate professor. In addition, if you enter a password, the author can edit or delete one line comment at any time.

Person A said, “Since the professor’s office is a closed space, I complained of considerable pressure whenever students were called.” It was an attitude that did not acknowledge the existence of the anonymous bulletin board itself.

Mr. B, who worked as an assistant at the public performance management center where candidate Park is the center head in 2018, also said, “When there is a bad story about me on the Dr. Kim’s net, I log in to the assistants to see who wrote in front of me. I also confirmed it,” he said. This is the part where we tried to find out the author of the critical post. Mr. B said, “It is a famous anecdote that I ordered him to comment again.” This means that candidate Park ordered a kind of ‘manipulation of public opinion’ by rewriting comments.

Some claim that coffee errands and cleaning manuals existed in the form of ‘documents’ before 2016. Previously, CBS Nocut News reported that Professor Park had a manual for errands for coffee and cleaning related to his teaching duties. Person A claimed, “There was a work manual in the form of documents related to Candidate Park’s teaching assistant job.

He said, “But in April 2016, after the controversy over the so-called ‘Hyundai family president’s 140-page manual for abuse,’ the school’s document manual also disappeared.” remnants,” he said.

In April 2016, it was revealed that there was a manual for abuse, such as Il-sun Jeong, the 3rd-generation Hyundai BNG Steel president, telling his assistant to ‘wait behind a pillar by the front door 30 minutes before going to work’. This means that candidate Park was conscious of this when the frequent manual became a social controversy for ‘Gapjil’.

Regarding the series of additional ‘Gapjil’ allegations, Park’s side explained, “The facts are different. I’m sorry that there seems to have been a misunderstanding.”

Meanwhile, the deadline for re-sending Candidate Park’s personnel hearing progress report has already expired on the 29th of last month. According to the law, President Yoon can be appointed without a personnel hearing at the National Assembly. However, in a situation where suspicions about Park are repeatedly raised, the opposition and opposition parties are forming a consensus on holding a personnel hearing in the National Assembly.
