It will be released on Monday (19) as soon as the results of the Audit and Inspection Board’s audit on whether the decision to close unit 1 of the Wolseong Nuclear Power Plant was appropriate. Auditor General Choi Jae-hyung criticized and criticized the audit period, saying it was because government officials from the Ministry of Commerce, Industry and Energy resistance to the audit was very strong. Reporter Han Yeon-hee reports. On September 30 last year, the National Assembly requested the Audit Office to audit the decision to shut down the Wolsong nuclear power plant early. Initially, Wolseong Unit 1 invested KRW 700 billion, including strengthening the facilities and regional mutual benefit cooperation funds, and extended the operating period until 2022. Despite this, the reason for the audit request is to confirm whether the judgment of Korea Hydro & Nuclear Power, which decided to close early, is valid. The appreciation period was three months. However, when the results did not come out a year after the start of the audit, the opposition party even raised the rumors of external pressure, and auditor Choi Jae-hyung cut that there was no such thing. The results of the audit will be announced on the 19th. Auditor General Choi Jae-hyung said that the reasons for the delay in the audit results were complicated by the matters themselves, but that there was also great audit resistance. Officials from the Ministry of Commerce, Industry and Energy deleted all the related data, so it took time to recover it and the process of receiving a statement was also difficult. He said that in order to clear up the controversy around the audit process, all the material could be published along with the announcement of the audit results. Korea Hydro & Nuclear Power President Jeong Jae-hoon said he will take responsibility if the audit reveals illegality. Political and social impacts will certainly diverge depending on the results of the audit. If there is no offense, it will have less impact, but if the opposite occurs, it seems inevitable that the Moon Jae-in administration will inevitably take a hit on the general state affairs of the Moon Jae-in administration beyond the line of which President Han Su-won is responsible.
