It was alleged that President-elect Yoon Seok-yeol’s wife, Kim Kun-hee, recently visited the foreign minister’s official residence in Hannam-dong, Seoul, which was decided as the new presidential residence, and told the wife of current Foreign Minister Chung Eui-yong, ‘I have to look around, so please stay out’. On the 2nd, when the Ministry of Foreign Affairs dismissed the fact that it would be held legally responsible for the dissemination, independent lawmaker Kim Hong-geol demanded that the CCTV footage of the official residence be released at the time.
This raises the possibility that the workshop that seemed familiar will continue again.
▶Rep. Kim Hong-geol said this by posting on his Facebook page titled ‘The Ministry of Foreign Affairs, please release the CCTV screen of the official residence on the day Kim Kun-hee visited’.
Rep. Kim Hong-geol said, “The media reports that Mr. Geon-hee Kim visited the official residence holding a puppy and said, ‘I’ll take a look around, so please go out for a while.’ They say they’ve never met,” and “there is a way to clean up this controversy.”
He emphasized, “It is about receiving and checking the CCTV at the time.” “If the Ministry of Foreign Affairs submits the CCTV screen on the same day, there will be no more arguing and there will be no need for unnecessary controversy.”
Rep. Kim Hong-geol requested the Ministry of Foreign Affairs to disclose relevant access data during a personnel hearing on the same day as Minister of Foreign Affairs Park Jin, prior to posting such an article. Rep. Kim Hong-geol belongs to the National Assembly Foreign Affairs and Unification Committee under the jurisdiction of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.
He asked the Ministry of Foreign Affairs for data on the status of visitors to and from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs’ diplomatic missions for a month from March 21, and he said, “If the Ministry of Foreign Affairs discloses the access data, it will be revealed whether (related claims, etc.) is true.”
▶The claim regarding Mrs. Kim Gun-hee was previously raised by Woo Sang-ho of the Democratic Party of Korea. He appeared on TBS’ ‘Kim Eo-jun’s News Factory’ that day, citing a trusted source, and when Mrs. Kim Geon-hee visited the diplomatic mission in mid-April, he accompanied his dog to the Minister of Foreign Affairs Chung Eui-yong and his wife, “I have to look around the mission, so please leave.” asserted that it was requested.
He also claimed that no official document had been sent before the visit, and especially after the visit of First Lady Kim Gun-hee, the transition committee changed the candidate for the presidential residence from the official residence of the Army Chief of Staff to the diplomatic mission of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.
