<Reporter> This

is a recording of the call between Jeju Air and Estar Air's representatives in March, released by the Istar Airways union.

[Lee Seok-Joo/CEO of Jeju Air at the time: Shouldn't we now go into retirement or a program like this? To do that, it is necessary to shut down now (stop operation)... .] The

Jeju Air side says it is a nuance that they will settle the delinquent wages when the merger and acquisition transaction is completed.

[Choejonggu / Eastar Jet NYSE: haejwoyaji to catch up wages for those who remain such in Jeju Air, so that voluntary retirement is also can enter.]

[Yiseokju / time Jeju Air CEO: Deal finished with closing (contracted) as soon as possible. Then that's what we'll do. The most important thing to pay is the wage.] The

payment of the delinquent wage is different from Jeju Air's external position that it was the share of Estar Air.

According to data from the management meeting held last March by the union, Jeju Air demanded restructuring of the workforce due to the reduction of four aircraft.

In the internal documents discussed by the two companies, there is also a plan to retire 405 people in total, including 90 crew members, and compensate for 5 billion won.

[Park Lee-sam/Ista Air's pilot union chairman: Jeju Air's 1 deputy general manager and 3 planners have an office in our company. All the money was paid, and all the route information was already confirmed.]

Jeju Air will announce its position on the controversy over the restructuring intervention of Eastar Airlines tomorrow (7th).

Increasingly, the view of the possibility of mergers and acquisitions is darkening due to bilateral conflicts that have been secreted even before the disclosure.
