Former financial deputy mayor Yoo Jae-soo of Busan, detained in December of last year for allegedly receiving 47 million won in gold money from four officials in the financial industry for eight years. He is also accused of taking money and getting his younger brother to work at an acquaintance company to receive a salary of over 100 million won.

At the decision, the prosecution sought five years in prison for Mr. Yu.

"It showed the typical appearance of a spectator duck, saying that it had been committed to buying and selling money over a long period of time," said Mr. Yu, through the Financial Services Commissioner of the Financial Services Commission and the deputy mayor of Busan City.

He also said that he tried to stop and conceal the inspection of the Blue House in an unusual way and, if he could not reveal the truth, had the potential to spark a power gate.

Yu acknowledged that he had received the money, but replied that he was only helped by a friend without a price.

In particular, he compared the job of Mr. Yu and the timing of receiving money, and insisted that the job was not related to the job that could not help those who gave money.

The first trial sentence will be held on the 22nd of next month.
