Minister Choo Mi-ae said that it was inappropriate contact and grounds for disciplinary action when Yoon Seok-yeol met with the key owner of a media company during the days of the Seoul Central District Prosecutor’s Office. He stressed that his comments to think about how to serve the people after retirement also undermined his political neutrality as attorney general. This is reporter Han Dong-oh. Minister Chu also pointed to the misconduct charges that Yun had improper contact with the owner of the medium. In November 2018, when President Yoon was serving as the Seoul Central District Prosecutor’s Office, he met with JTBC President Hong Seok-hyun in a bar. Before and after the meeting, a complaint was filed with the prosecution in the Samsung Biologics fraudulent accounting case, and the case was assigned to Special Section 2 of the Seoul Central District Prosecutor’s Office. Regarding this, the Supreme Prosecutor’s Office explained that it was not a ground for disciplinary action in reporting it to President Moon Moo-il, a senior at the time, as President Hong had no influence in the case. The statements were cited as the basis for disciplinary action that seriously compromised his reputation as an attorney general who must remain politically neutral. Minister Chu said a statement interpreted as a statement of political participation after Yoon’s retirement, and said he did not take active steps to resolve the distrust of political neutrality despite the announcement of first place at the polls. In response, the Supreme Prosecutor’s side drew a line that the media might interpret him that way, but that Yun never said that he had ever been a politician. The reason for the disciplinary action was that President Yoon himself violated his obligation to cooperate as a subject of inspection and interfered with the inspection. The Prosecutor’s Office of the Ministry of Justice asked to discuss the schedule of the visit, but on several occasions they clearly indicated their intention to refuse. In response, the Supreme Prosecutor’s Office stated that the Ministry of Justice displayed a rather ambiguous attitude as to whether it was a formal prosecution or not, and stated that it had not been notified of the specific reasons and considerable reasons for initiating the prosecution.
