Blue House said that Justice Minister Choo Mi-ae visited the Blue House yesterday (on the 16th) and expressed his gratitude to President Moon Jae-in in the process of reporting the results of the disciplinary action of Prosecutor General Yoon Seok-yeol.
President Moon said at this meeting that it would have been impossible to reform power institutions, including the reform of the airlift and the power of investigation, without the momentum and determination of Minister Chu.

President Moon said, "I will consider the death and decide whether to accept it."
An official at the Blue House explained the background of the company's expression, saying, "It seems that Minister Chu himself has determined that he has fulfilled his duty as the important reform legislation was completed."
However, President Moon "highly appreciated" Minister Chu's appreciation, and said, "I look forward to ending the confusion surrounding the prosecutor general's disciplinary action," and urged the resignation of Yoon together with Minister Chu. There is also an interpretation of whether it was done.
However, an official at the Blue House said, "It is not appropriate for the Blue House to evaluate the lawsuit," and avoided direct comments on the president, saying, "It is not appropriate for the Blue House to evaluate the lawsuit," when Yoon objected to the disciplinary action.
