Former Justice Minister Cho Kuk said today (24th) that his daughter Jo Min's decision to cancel her admission to the Pusan ​​National University Medical School was "painful as a father".



After announcing Pusan ​​National University's decision on his SNS that day, former Minister Cho said, "I will faithfully explain in the scheduled hearing procedure before the final decision is made."



He also shared an SNS post stating that the professor who made fake specifications and passed his son into the medical school was sentenced to prison in the second trial, but the son is still working as a doctor.




Earlier, Pusan ​​National University held a press conference this afternoon and said, "After comprehensively reviewing the 'Self-Investigation Results' of the Admissions Process Management Committee, Professor Kyung-shim Jeong's appeal, and the opinions of the department in charge, (Mr. Cho's) admission to the medical school in 2015 We have decided to cancel it.”



Meanwhile, Cho's alma mater, Korea University, has also begun the cancellation process.
