In So Gong-yeon’s case, Senior Vice President Kim Im-yong acts as president according to the articles of incorporation. Acting Representative Kim is expected to lead the Federation of Small Businesses until the presidential elections to be held in February next year in accordance with the bylaws.

Acting Representative Kim said, “It is the result of the gathering of small business power from across the country, including choppy petitions from 5,000 small businesses across the country calling for the removal of President Bae Dong-wook.”

He added: “The government ministries have accused the president that he received strict warnings, which is the greatest possible measure against private organizations, with the power of the members, showing that the Federation of Small Businessmen still has a strong capacity for self-cleaning.” We will promote the normalization work for a new beginning of the Federation ”.

President Bae, who took office in April, was pressured to resign due to controversy at the dance fan workshop in June. In a situation in which small entrepreneurs are in crisis due to a drop in sales due to the crisis in the crown, criticism has been dispersed by holding a workshop and summoning a female dance team to dance and play. President Bae, who appeared 10 days after the controversy, apologized but refused to resign.

The Sogong-yeon workers union and the Emergency Response Committee raised family issues and misuse of subsidies, and President Bae was charged with embezzlement, relegation and violation of the subsidy administration law. The investigation is currently ongoing.

The Ministry of SMEs and Startups, which is the supervising agency for the small actions, recently issued a “severe warning” to President Bae and the small actions after an on-site inspection in late July. The invitation to the dance team did not fit the purpose of the workshop and purchasing the association’s wreath through a family flower shop was found to violate the code of conduct for employees.

In a situation where the red inside was intensifying, President Bae faced a crisis due to the reappearance of the damage caused by the crown and the floods, but did not participate in outside activities such as visiting the damaged site. In the Internet small business owner community, there were allegations that “Is President Bae qualified to represent 7 million small business people?”
