Defense Minister Chung Gyeong-du said on the 15th: “The regulations or directives currently in force by the Ministry of National Defense are not those that apply to any specific soldier, but rather commonly apply to all soldiers who they join our army and commit to the state. ” The son of Justice Minister Chu Mi-ae, Seo Amugae, denied the allegations of preferential treatment during the military vacation.
However, in response to the accusation that “in a similar situation (with Minister Chu’s son), reports are spilling that we have not received preferential treatment,” “if there were any disadvantages from not properly applying such regulations, As the defense minister, in the future, I will make sure nothing happens. “
On the same day, after receiving a question from Congressman Ha Tae-kyung (Haeundae-gap, Busan) in a questionnaire about the National Assembly in the fields of diplomacy, reunification and security, Minister Chung said: “We are actively cooperating with the requests for data by the prosecution investigation “. He said the position.
The main point was that there was no preferential treatment for SEO. “If you look at the records of the integral solidarity administration system that the Army manages, (the Seo holidays) went through the normal approval process. However, the follow-up measure, the administrative process, has to be done, but the process is quite insufficient “. The suspicion of preferential holidays is a misunderstanding due to insufficient documents.
In addition, he emphasized that “there have been 35 cases of vacation extension (similar to Mr. Seo) in Soldiers of KATUSA in the last 4 years, and 5 cases of extension of more than 2 times.”

However, Congressman Ha repeatedly said: “Is it true that the case of (vacation extension) that the minister said was true, like Mr. Seo ▲ extended the vacation by phone ▲ sick leave on 4/19 days of hospital treatment ▲ was not checked and extended vacations? ” I went to blame. When Minister Chung replied, “If you do not receive the same benefits (vacation extension) in the same situation as Seo, the commander has not been carefully considered,” Representative Ha said, “(the minister) is passing the responsibility to the commander. top of the line now. ” He exclaimed.
Meanwhile, when Min Hong-cheol, a member of the Democratic Party (Gyeongnam Kim Hae-gap) asked him, “Is the current opinion of the Ministry of Defense that the vacation order itself is legitimate?” He also lowered his head.
He said: “If the administrative measures go well, I would be safe, but I cannot do that,” he said. “Seeing that the basic first and second sick leave records and love leave records are kept, I think the licensing authority must have approved it.” The type of situation that happened in the process will be revealed to through the investigation of the prosecution. “
