President Moon Jae-in chaired the meeting of emergency security ministers at the Blue House from 3:00 p.m. to 4:30 p.m. on the 27th, repeatedly calling on North Korea for a joint investigation into the murder of Mr. Lee, of 47 years old, a fishing instructor dependent on the Ministry of Oceans and Fisheries. President Moon presided over the first related meetings 113 hours and 20 minutes after the North Korean military killed Lee, and 102 hours and 30 minutes after receiving the report of Lee’s assassination.
At a briefing on the day, Seo Ju-seok, the first deputy chief of the Blue House Office of National Security, who is the secretary of the National Security Council (NSC), announced the results of the meeting, saying: “I appreciate positively the prompt apology of the North and the promise to prevent it from happening again. ” The meeting was attended by President Moon, Defense Minister Seo-wook, Director of the National Intelligence Service, Park Ji-won, President Roh Young-min, the presidential secretary, and the head of the National Security Office, Seo Hoon.
Assistant Director General Seo continued: “There is a difference in the background and facts of the incidents identified by the North and the South, so we request a joint investigation to learn the facts as soon as possible.” I hope to find out together. “He also said:” We request the restoration and restart of the military communication lines for communication, consultation and information exchange (for joint investigation). “
However, there are observations that North Korea has already expressed its intention not to comply with our request for a joint investigation, as North Korea announced on the day via Chosun Central News that “the South has already investigated and reported all the case”. Some point out whether it is appropriate to state the apology from two days ago without mentioning that North Korea criticized the Korean army’s search operation. People’s Force spokesman Bae Joon-young commented on the day, writing: “I am positive, showing the North Korean leader’s apology like heaven and ignoring the bloody and tearful reality of our people. I wonder if you’ve ever seen the word “positive” so sadly when you were born. I feel desperate. ” Reporter Hyung-jun Hwang Go to reporter’s page [email protected]>
