Kim Sang-jo, chief of policy at the Blue House, said that the daughter of his country's Attorney General was named as the first author in medical papers and used it for college entrance examinations.

Kim responded to the Korea Broadcast Journalist Club's invitation debate today (21) and asks, "How should professors punish their children or their close professor's children as thesis authors?" Said.

Kim said, "One of the most sensitive parts of Korean society will be the ones that are considered unfair in terms of employment and employment." In that sense, I know that people are uncomfortable with many recent doubts.

However, "I would like to emphasize that the system has changed fundamentally because of such a problem," he mentioned the Ministry of Education's last year's research on a paper that a minor named as a co-author.

Kim said, "At that point, it wasn't illegal to write such information on a cover letter or on a living record, and in a sense it's recommended. .

He said, "To be clear, it's impossible now."

Kim said, “At the government level, we will continue to make policy efforts to increase the transparency of the substitution system so that people are no longer socially controversial about the most sensitive and concerned areas.”

Mr. Cho also commented on the issue of private equity investment.

Kim said, “The government prohibits senior public officials from investing directly in stocks or financial products of certain companies.” Generally speaking, funds are indirect investments, and private equity funds are not direct managers. I don't think I can get involved. "

When the private fund is run by a relative of a candidate, the question is whether there is a conflict of interest. "The part could be suspicious, and I think the candidate should be clearly called during the hearing."
