It is noted after reporters from the Defense Ministry criticized the military (Joint Chief of Staff) who announced the incident that West Sea Fisheries Guidance Officer Lee Amugae was killed by a North Korean shooting.
Journalists on the 23rd, a day before the official announcement of the case by the Joint Chiefs of Staff, reported that the army only explained that the North Koreans had found Lee, without revealing that the North Korean army killed Lee and that Lee’s body was burned. It is intellectual. However, our military already informed the Blue House National Security Council on the 22nd that North Korea discovered the missing person, shot him and burned him. President Moon also received a written spy report at 6:36 pm on the afternoon of the 22nd, and a face-to-face report on the morning of the 23rd. The related ministerial meeting also took place on the 23rd of 1: 00 am to 2:30 am. The government was aware of everything, but there are doubts that it was not reported to the media or was intentionally reported incorrectly.
In fact, on the afternoon of the 23rd, various media reported that Lee was found in North Korean waters and the Defense Ministry explained that it would confirm the facts with North Korea. On 23 at 1:33 pm, the Ministry of National Defense today (23) in the online article “Missing person from Yeonpyeong Island fishing guide boat appears to be found in North Korean Sea” “, the Ministry of Defense today (23) “1.2 miles south of Soyeonpyeong Island around 12:51 2km) At sea, a report was submitted to the Maritime Police that a crew member of a fishing guide boat belonging to the Ministry was missing Oceans and Fisheries ”, he wrote. The Defense Ministry said: “According to our military intelligence (the day after the disappearance), the situation in which the missing person was found in North Korean waters was captured and subjected to detailed analysis. We will take the necessary measures like, ”SBS said. In particular, SBS wrote: “It is reported that the relevant authorities know that Mr. A has survived so far.”
The JoongAng Ilbo also wrote an article online at a similar time that day, “軍” A public official disappeared near Yeonpyeongdo … “According to military authorities, on the afternoon of the 22nd, the day after the disappearance, Mr. A it was detected in North Korean waters and is being thoroughly analyzed. ” “The military authorities investigated the process and the route of the disappearance. He wrote that he would take the necessary measures, such as verifying the related facts.”
Also, most major media such as Kyunghyang Shinmun, Dong-A Ilbo, Yonhap News, E-Daily Money Today News1, Newsis Seoul Shinmun, etc. reported similar reports.
For this reason, after the Joint Chiefs of Staff announced on the 24th, journalists from the Defense Ministry harshly criticized the military for being hidden in an “informational meeting” with military officials.
According to the briefings identified by Media Today, a reporter of the reporter said in a subsequent press conference held in the press room of the Ministry of Defense on the morning of the 24th. There is, ”he said. Reporter Lee said: “Yesterday I asked for a later report several times, but I rejected the request not to report, but the content came out yesterday by the National Assembly, which is an act of ignoring the reporters.” He noted that “the admission statement reached the Defense Ministry reporters through the National Assembly reporter,” and said: “There is a suspicion that the ruling party was included in the approval of the Defense Ministry statement.” . Reporter Lee said: “Even if the military authorities of the Defense Ministry do not intend to cover up and reduce, we will express our sincere regret as a representative of the inbound and outbound reporters on how they view the press and the press, and we will question and we will express opinions through the minister.
During the briefing, another reporter said: “I confirmed for the first time that a fishing instructor was shot on the night of the 22nd, but on the 23rd I told reporters that it was ‘the situation found in North Korean waters’ without such information and I said there was nothing to explain even though we kept asking for it. “Which is the reason?” Then, a military officer replied: “I could not explain why yesterday (23) the analysis of the information was not completed.”
The reporter asked, “So it shouldn’t have been revealed in the first place, and only part of it shouldn’t have been revealed before and after the press release, right?” In response, a military officer said: “I had planned to report some of the missing persons and report them in detail today, but I don’t know which route the article came out yesterday. “Yesterday, ‘reporters are in a hurry, I’ll explain in detail if I wait a bit.’ He explained. Another official said: “I understand that I will analyze the information and explain the results today.”
A military official said: “This problem is not a problem that the North and South can face militarily or require military countermeasures. This was an incident in North Korean waters and was not a threat to our territory or territorial waters.” I will tell you clearly that it is not. “” What I have been talking about is explaining in detail after all the analysis, and this briefing has already been decided today, and there are many reports in the evening, so I regret that the intention of the briefing is diluted ”.
Furthermore, in this subsequent briefing, reporters repeatedly questioned whether the military had done nothing for six hours after discovering Mr. Lee at around 4:40 PM on the 22nd. Then a military officer said: “The fact of that was found on the North Korean ship was at this point that we summed up the missing personnel later, and it was according to the results of a detailed analysis, and the situation was unknown at the time. “
There was also a reporter who asked: ‘If it was estimated at 4:40 pm, and if it did not give up, please explain what kind of action you took. A military officer replied: “At the time, we could not identify the location of the sea, and if it had killed our people a few hours later, whether they fled North Korea or drifted, our troops would not have left. stay still. “
