Reporter Kang Cheong-wan from the Political Department and the news of the nomination for the prime minister, let's find out more.



Q. "I was chosen as a candidate for Han Deok-soo"...

What is the background?



[Reporter Kang Cheong-wan: Yes, Jang Je-won, the elected chief of staff, said to reporters this morning (3rd).

He said that he made Choryeo by taking candidate Han Deok-soo to serve him.

One candidate received the last offer and agreed to the verification, but even told him to look for another candidate.

Although some pointed out that a key official on the elected side is an old boy, he evaluated that he was the best person who had all the elements needed for the new government, including integration, economy, diplomacy, trade, and region.

The experience of passing the Prime Minister's personnel hearing during the Roh Moo-hyun administration is also considered as a major factor in the selection.]



Q. What is the remaining process for the Prime Minister's approval?



[Reporter Chung-wan Kang: When the elected President Yoon submits a request for a personnel hearing, a special committee on personnel hearings is formed in the National Assembly and a hearing is held.

The resolution of the plenary session is made after a hearing held for up to three days, and a majority of the attending members must agree to the attendance of a majority of the enrolled members.

It is a structure that cannot be approved if the 172-seat Democratic Party opposes it.]



Q. What is the prospect of the National Assembly personnel hearing?



[Reporter Kang Cheong-wan: The Democratic Party foretold the verification of the awl, saying that people from Honam are not a factor of consideration.

Come and listen to Minority Leader Park Hong-geun.]



[Park Hong-geun/Democratic Party Leader: He is from Honam, or has worked in the former Democratic Party government in the past, I don’t think this should be a factor at all.]



[Reporter Kang Cheong-wan: The Justice Party also said that a candidate should state his position by mentioning that he served as advisor Kim & Chang, who was the legal representative of Lone Star when the private equity fund Lone Star took over KEB.

After that, one candidate again worked as an advisor to Kim & Chang for more than three years, so there is a possibility that the high salary controversy will arise.]
