The truth cannot be confined

The latest message left by the reincarceration of former President Lee Myung-bak is a hot topic. This is because it is the same message that former legislator Chung Bong-ju, who played the role of ‘sniper Lee Myung-bak’ nine years ago, addressed former President Lee before his imprisonment. Both men defended their innocence and made a statement, but after nine years, the situation turned out to be the opposite.
Lee, who was sentenced to 17 years in prison on embezzlement and bribery charges, was re-incarcerated in the East Detention Center in Seoul on the 2nd. Before leaving his home in Nonhyeon-dong, Seoul, former President Lee he left the words “You can arrest me, but you can’t limit the truth. Don’t worry too much,” said the former president’s aides.
The first expression used by Chung Bong-ju supporters claiming innocence.

Unfortunately, Lee’s comments were used as a phrase symbolizing the imprisonment of former legislator Jeong, who beat him nine years ago. On December 26, 2011, Congressman Chung appeared at the Seoul Central District Prosecutor’s Office before being jailed for violating the Public Officials Election Law, saying, “The fight to reveal the truth is about to begin.” Meanwhile, he stressed that he could not accept the sentence and said: “I cannot contain the truth.”
Representative Jeong was convicted of spreading false information (violation of the Public Officials Election Law) after presenting a ‘BBK share price manipulation link’ of then-Grand National Party presidential candidate Lee Myung-bak in 2007 and was sentenced to one year in prison. He argued that the beneficial owner of BBK at the time was the former president, and that the former president was at the center of the share price manipulation case.
This is the first sentence used by Congressman Jung Jeon just before his incarceration by his supporters, saying that “the truth cannot be limited” against the sentence. On December 22, four days before his imprisonment, when former lawmaker Jeong was sentenced to one year in prison in the Supreme Court, a woman who was gathered in front of the Supreme Court building protested and heard a picket with this text .
Chung Bong-ju appeared as an advertisement in a newspaper on the day of the incarceration.

The phrase appeared in a newspaper ad on the day of Jung Jeon’s incarceration. More than 1,000 students and graduates of Ewha Womans University advertised this phrase in some newspapers. The newspaper ads were spread through the social media service (SNS), and politicians in the opposition party (now the Democratic Party of Korea) at the time criticized the government and the Supreme Court, citing them.
Before the indictment appeared at the time, Congressman Jeong gave the last message on the podcast show ‘I am a trick’. The stunt is primarily a political talk show that uncovers the former president’s corruption, and former lawmaker Jeong has exposed suspicions about the former president on this show with three people, including Kim Eo-jun, Kim Yong-min, and Joo Jin- woo.
At the time, he said, “By confining me, BBK’s Pandora’s box was opened,” he said. “Now the truth will be caught, but next time it is the turn of the lies.” He also consoled fans by saying, “I’m going to say my last greeting in front of the prosecution, but those who come should never cry,” and said, “When we cry, they laugh. We lose.”
