On the 3rd, on his Facebook page, Kim Bu-seon claimed, “I bet 18 trillion won on the fact that Lee Jae-myung has been driving under the influence of alcohol more than twice.”
Kim Bu-seon, a spokesperson for the presidential campaign for governor Lee, shared an article in which he resigned after it became known that he had posted articles in support of drunk driving on social media last month, saying, “Opposite candidates should urgently seek out records of Lee Jae-myung’s drinking and driving.”
He said, “Lee Jae-myung once called a substitute driver at my house in the morning.” He said, “It’s been a while since I’ve been drunk, but I’m out of drink. I was told it was cancelled. He said that he had already been caught twice.”

Poverty can feel like a sin,” he wrote. He also said, “It is an unfair double punishment to block social activities.”
Spokesperson Park’s post was heated up by the controversy surrounding the governor’s drunk driving history and was recalled, and voices of criticism from both inside and outside the political circles poured out.
Kim Bu-seon and Lee Ji-hoon had been in a relationship with the governor in the past, claiming to be in a truthful battle.
In the so-called ‘actress scandal’, the investigative agency intervened and investigated as both the governor and the opposing candidate accused each other, but the prosecution was dismissed due to insufficient evidence.
