Candidate Ho-young Jung for Minister of Health and Welfare held a press conference on the 17th as the opposition parties and some media raised suspicions about the so-called ‘Dad Chance’ and explained the facts in detail.

Candidate Chung demanded that the truth be revealed through objective facts and records, rather than predicting the situation at the time by probabilities or speculation.

However, the opposition party is raising the level of offensive by pointing out that President-elect Yoon Seok-yeol, who seemed abstract to the family of former Justice Minister Cho Kuk, is far more tolerant of Chung, who he has known for 40 years.

Political circles believe that the flow of the situation will change depending on which side the so-called ‘National Emotional Act’, which watches the truth battle between Candidate Chung and the opposition party, favors.

Candidate Jeong held a press conference at the National Medical Center in Jung-gu, Seoul on the afternoon of the 17th and asserted his innocence, saying, “There was no unfair practice using my position” in relation to the fact that his two children transferred to Kyungpook National University Medical School while he was serving as a senior in Kyungpook National University Hospital. did.

He also complained about his son’s injustice, saying, “There was no preference whatsoever, and if the National Assembly designates a medical institution, I will have him undergo testing and diagnosis again.”

Specifically, Candidate Chung said, “I believe that the selection process has been made transparently and the evaluation results were made fairly,” and “there was no unreasonable request or pressure in any form.”

In particular, Candidate Jeong asked the Ministry of Education to thoroughly investigate the transfer process of his child, and promised, “If any unreasonable problems are found (in the investigation), we will take corresponding measures.”

Kyungpook National University requested the Ministry of Education to conduct an audit on the wrongful admission of candidate Chung’s child on the same day, and the Ministry of Education decided to conduct an audit through a comprehensive review.

In undergraduate transfer, the first stage evaluation is a selection process that emphasizes objective data such as bachelor’s grades and English language scores and numerical results, and the second stage is an individual interview evaluation.

In the case of candidate Chung’s daughter, the combined score of the first and second stages of the transfer screening was 27th out of 33 students, and her son 7th out of 17.

Candidate Jeong explained, “It is difficult to say that there was a preference for the transfer process, considering that the subjective interview and document evaluation scores are lower than the mechanically calculated bachelor’s and English scores.”

In addition, candidate Chung said, “It is a fair structure where it is impossible to solicit a solicitation, etc.,” he said, citing the fact that about 50 judges are randomly assigned on the day of the test during the transfer process and that the names of parents and employers cannot be written in the self-introduction letter. “It is impossible to give preferential treatment to specific individuals,” he added.

Candidate Jeong explained that it was at the request of Daegu City regarding the sudden occurrence of a ‘local talent special screening’ in the 2018 academic year of medical school that his son passed.

Regarding the process of his son receiving a grade 2 active duty test at the first physical examination in 2010 and then a grade 4 supplementary service decision at a re-examination in 2015, Chung said, “He went through two MRI scans at Kyungpook National University Hospital and CT scans at the Military Manpower Administration, and It was diagnosed by three doctors.

Meanwhile, in addition to the press conference on the same day, candidate Chung appealed for injustice by distributing a 23-page Q&A booklet containing various allegations and positions on them to the press.

However, the opposition party is raising the level of political offensive by targeting the relationship between candidate Chung and President-elect Yoon Seok-yeol.

In a briefing on the afternoon of the same day, Minjoo Party spokeswoman Shin Hyun-young said, “It was a press conference that shifted the burden of proof to the people, the National Assembly, and the media, deviating from the core issues of raising public suspicions about the rules of the game and who made the rules.” criticized

Democratic Party lawmaker Park Yong-jin also said, “If Yoon-elect was now the Prosecutor General, if such suspicions were raised, would he not have conducted an all-round search and seizure of the home of Ho-young Jeong and Kyungpook National University Hospital earlier? There is no,” he said.
