In relation to the Democratic Party's offensive targeting Yoon Seok-yeol, the People's Power candidate, after Newstapa reported the audio file of Kim Man-bae, the major shareholder of Hwacheon Daeyu, the People's Power said, "The report is about covering the 'body of Candidate Lee Jae-myung'. "It is a manipulation and a political operation for the sake of the public," he criticized, saying, "Don't think about distorting it through excerpts from the transcript."



Earlier, Newstapa released a recording of a conversation between Kim Man-bae and former media union chairman Shin Hak-rim in September of last year, yesterday (6th).



In the recording file, Mr. Kim Man-bae said that he had resolved the case through prosecutors, such as the then chief prosecutor Yoon Seok-yeol, in relation to the Busan Savings Bank case in the past. After the report, Democratic Party candidate Lee Jae-myung shared the report link on his SNS.



In this regard, Lee Yang-soo, senior spokesperson for the People's Power Ancestral Headquarters, said in a commentary, "(At the time of the recording), reports that Kim Man-bae made a huge profit with Hwacheon Oil and public opinion to investigate thoroughly," said, "Kim Man-bae said, "At this time, 'Do not investigate. ' and lied to 'defend Candidate Jae-myung Lee'."



He also claimed, "The conversation partner Shin Shin-rim applied to the Democratic Party for proportional representation, and this year, he personally wrote a slanderous article stating that 'Yoon Seok-yeol will go to prison'" and "the transcript has no objectivity."



Senior Spokesperson Lee said, "I make it clear that candidate Yoon has not investigated anyone to take care of anyone."



He also dismissed the Democratic Party's offensive as "a political operation worse than Eco-Tang Season 2 and Kim Dae-up Season 2," and said, "I warn you that we will take strong legal action against false political operations."



Cha Seung-hoon, a full-time spokesperson for the predecessor headquarters, also commented, "(At the time of the recording) Kim Man-bae tried to escape by electing candidate Lee Jae-myung when the prosecution investigation was expected. When you look at the time of the recording, it is revealed that it is a meticulously pre-planned, fake self-made play by Kim Man-bae.”
