In addition, suspicions were raised that the country's candidate did not pay the gift tax by paying off more than 20 million won in debt. In 10 years, you can pass up to 50 million won without paying taxes, which means you have met this limit and paid extra.

This is a summary of the high-ranking public officials' assets published by the Secretary of State's Attorney General in the Blue House in 2017 when he served as the Secretary of State's Senior Secretary.

It is stated that her daughter has debts of more than 16 million won.

A year later, the debt increased by 7 million won to 23 million won.

However, in the property details released in March, the daughter's debt is paid as 0 won, or all.

In July 2017, Cho and his wife paid 50 million won in the name of a daughter to a private equity fund.

However, it is estimated that this money was taken from Cho's daughter's existing deposit in Korea Investment & Securities.

If the 50 million won has been donated since 2009, Cho would be asked to pay a daughter of a student who has no income while filling the 50 million won limit for giving children over 19 years of age without tax. There is a suspicion that the donation tax has been removed by paying off more than 20 million won in debt.

On the other hand, the Ministry of Justice said, "It is not likely to be taxable because it is possible to return the money to the parents after borrowing a deposit while obtaining a rented house of a candidate's daughter in Yangsan." Said.

In response, the tax expert explained, "Penal funds are not well-disclosed in the IRS investigation, and in principle are gifts."

As a candidate for the Attorney General, the head of the law, I need a clear understanding and clarification.
