Passport officials are actively defending the opposition party’s offensive on allegations of preferential treatment to the son of Justice Minister Choo Mi-ae in the military, but it is noted that the comments in support of Minister Chu are generating more controversy than provided.
This is because the vocabulary and logic used by the ruling party in the process of refuting the opposition party’s arguments are becoming increasingly counterproductive in stimulating public sentiment.
In a comment on the 16th, Park Seong-joon, a spokesman for the Democratic Party, said, “It is the duty of a soldier to dedicate himself to Na-ri.” Said. He also said: “The opposition party seriously damaged the honor of the military who were carrying out their defense duties with fake news.” Spokesman Park deleted the sentence from the comment as criticism grew for Choo’s son’s misconduct against Dr. Ahn Jung-geun.
Democratic Party lawmaker Yun Gun-young said the same day the couple called the complaints office of the Ministry of National Defense in June 2017 to inquire about the extension of their son’s vacation. “He said. Representative Yoon’s argument is an assessment that is in line with Kimchi-jjigae’s comments from Chung Cheong-rae from the same party. On the 8th, on suspicion that Assistant Minister Chu had called the army , Representative Chung said: “If I go to a restaurant and order a kimchi stew quickly, is this a request or a civil complaint?”
The passport clarification on the vacation extension procedure has also been criticized by the military graduates. On the 15th, the leader of the Democratic Party, Kim Tae-nyeon, said, “If there is an unavoidable reason, you can apply by phone, email, Kakao Talk, etc.”, and Supreme Commissioner Kim Jong-min also He said: “If it is unavoidable, anyone can request an oral vacation.” “Do,” he said. In this sense, a petition was published in the National Petitions Bulletin of the Blue House, which said: “I only have three children and the third works in the air force.
A Democratic Party official said: “The military problem is the discomfort of the people because it is the concern of all the people,” and said: “As the people have no choice but to react sensitively, it needs to be approached very carefully.”
Democratic party lawmakers who bowed their heads to the public with comments related to Minister Chu also appear one after another. Representative Sang-ho Woo, a former army sergeant, evaluated the KATUSA soldier assigned to the USFK, where Minister Chu’s son served, as a “ comfortable army, ” but finally apologized when the accusations came from the reserve. of KATUSA soldiers. Representative Hwang Hee, secretary of the Democratic Party of the National Assembly Defense Committee, also used the expression “ criminal only ” to target the serviceman who first raised the suspicion of Minister Chu’s son, and revealed his real name. and face on social networking services (SNS). He apologized.
The Hwang controversy also had an impact on the defense minister’s candidate Seo-wook’s personal audience. When Congressman Lee Chae-ik apologized to Hwang before the hearing in the courtroom began, Democratic Party Congressman Hong Young-pyo immediately covered Congressman Hwang and Minister Chu, saying, “It seems that ( the opposition party) wants to create a propaganda field with the case of Minister Chu. ”
Representative Hong later criticized the force of the people, saying: “The forces that tried to privatize the army and intervene in politics in the past have inspected and manipulated civilians and even started a coup, but now that is not possible, they come to the National Assembly to operate. ” When Congressman Hong used the term ‘coup’, the opposition party rebelled and said: “Who are the coup forces that entered the National Assembly speaking?”, “If the coup forces call us, we will not participate in the audience”.
Finally, the hearing, which was delayed by the opposition parties, began in about 40 minutes, expressing Congressman Hong’s regret.
On the other hand, on the 16th, when OhmyNews asked 500 people over the age of 18 on the issue of the minister’s location, public opinion on the resignation was tight. 49.0% of those surveyed said they should resign and 45.8% said they do not need to resign. 5.2% said ‘I don’t know’. This survey has a 95% confidence level and a sampling error of ± 4.4%.
By partisan support, the supporters of the Democratic Party were 12.0% in favor of the resignation of Minister Chu and 83.1% against the resignation. On the contrary, 89.5% of the supporters of popular power resigned and 8.5% opposed it. The pros and cons of each field were clearly divided.
