Is the issuance of the ‘holiday order of June 25 in question’ before or after 9 pm?
One of the keys to determining whether the ‘unusual vacation’ was a mere privilege or an obvious violation of military service for the 27-year-old son of Justice Minister Chu Mi-ae was when and under what circumstances the ‘Leave Order Individual from June 25, 2017 ‘. All. Seo, who wrote two sick leave (1st June 5-14 and 2nd June 15-23), immediately wrote a personal love song (24-27). However, the order to prove it was issued on June 25, one day after the start of the annual song. It is also the day that Private A called Mr. Seo to request the unit’s return, and also the day that Undersecretary Chu called the unit.
It is estimated that the moment the soldier on duty contacted Seo was around 9:00 p.m. If an attendee leaves immediately after receiving a request from Seo and contacts the unit after 9pm, the possibility of an external pressure event increases. In addition, it will be provoked by the controversy over the abuse of authority by Minister Chu, who was the leader of the Democratic Party. It is quite possible that an aide who is not a parent contacted the unit and introduced it as a “Chu Mi-ae representative assistant.” In response, Minister Chu finds himself in the position that “I have never given instructions to the assistant”, and the passport says that “Seo and the assistant were between a known brother and a younger brother, so they would not have given the name of Minister Chu. “

Didn’t the helper take a vacation over the phone?
Taking the Hankook Ilbo report on the 15th, it is highly likely that Seo was registered as a “ returner ” rather than a “ vacation person ” in the military internal system at the time of the call on 25th. June 2017 (around 9pm) on Sunday. According to several former KATUSA soldiers who worked in the same unit as Seo, he saw a roll call soldier confirming that Seo did not return and called Guard Soldier A to introduce himself. If you see Mr. A call Mr. Seo and instruct him to come back, the bottom line is that the guard command system at the time did not know whether Mr. Seo was taking additional vacations.
As the holiday order was confirmed to be issued on the 25th, the day after the holiday, ‘what time was it issued’ came up as another topic. The assistant made a statement in the prosecution’s investigation to the effect that “I called the unit three or more times, including 25, after receiving a request from Seo.”
If the permit order was issued after 9pm on the 25th, it is very likely that the assistant was asked to contact Seo and contact the unit and issue a “no permit” order at first place. Mr. A’s testimony that Mr. A appeared to agree without rebuttal that Mr. A “received an additional vacation” at the time Mr. A requested to return also supports this. According to Mr. A, 20 minutes after the call with Mr. Seo ended, a person believed to be from Army Headquarters visited Mr. A and instructed him to “treat Mr. Seo like a vacationer.” .
Of course, Mr. Seo reported the vacation to the unit in advance, but it may have been skipped during the staff processing. The National Defense Ministry said on the 14th that “there is a record showing that Seo’s personal license has been pre-approved” and that “the personnel order was delayed.” Even so, the fact that Minister Chu has made various efforts to extend his son’s vacation with the status of “ representative of the ruling ruling party in power ” does not disappear.

Did the local captain go out on Sunday and issue a vacation order?
Even if a vacation order was issued before 9pm on the 25th, doubts remain. The reason it was broadcast on Sunday, a holiday, is because it is not suspicious. Additionally, the approval of the local commander (column) is required for the order to be issued. It is said that the lieutenant colonel went to work on a holiday to take care of a private vacation. Military authorities have explained that, regarding ‘post-holiday approval’, “when soldiers report holidays on holidays, they first approve them orally and often go to work on weekdays and process them as documents “.
‘The truth of 25’ is expected to be revealed in a future judicial investigation. The prosecution knows that there is also a record of the phone call at the time Private A on duty ordered Seo to return. On the other hand, the prosecution also confirmed that the call records were not destroyed on June 14, 2017, when the facts of the complaints of the Ministry of Defense by the couple were not destroyed. According to the preliminary regulations of the Ministry of National Defense, the deadline for storing transcripts of civil complaints is three years, which was eliminated in June this year, but is said to remain in the military central server.
