State administration audit of the Supreme Prosecutors' Office by the Legislative Judicial Commission of the National Assembly. From the beginning of the national sentiment, inquiries related to the Lime Optimus suspicion continued.
Regarding the allegations that he had investigated the suspicion of receiving hospitality from former Star Mobility chairman Kim Bong-hyun of the former and current prosecutors, Yoon said he called the Southern District Prosecutors' Office within 10 minutes after receiving the report and ordered a thorough investigation.
The Ministry of Justice also expressed strong displeasure for raising the Attorney General's responsibility for insolvency investigations.
At the time, he argued that what was repelled as slander was also a modest expression.
[Yun Seok-yeol/Prosecutor General: I think the word slander is the most decent word I can use.] In
particular, Yun clashed with the ruling party judiciary members one after another, but a lawmaker who doubted the justice and fairness of the prosecutor general "Isn't this optional doubt, wasn't it to me in the past?"
When asked if he was willing to apologize for the suspicion of hospitality for prosecutors, he replied, "I will express an appropriate position after watching the results of the investigation."
