In March 2020, when the Daejang-dong apartment construction was in full swing, at a cafe in Seongnam-si, Gyeonggi-do, Kim Man-bae, the major shareholder of Hwacheon Daeyu, met with his business partner, Accountant Jeong Young-hak.



At this meeting, Mr. Kim predicted that the estimated profit of the A12 block contracted by Hwacheon Daewoo alone would reach 42 billion won.



He also mentioned the real names of six members of the so-called 5 billion club, former Blue House senior civil affairs chief Choi Jae-kyung, former special prosecutor Park Young-soo, former lawmaker Kwak Sang-do, former prosecutor general Kim Su-nam, money today group chairman Hong Seon-geun, and former Supreme Court Justice Kwon Soon-il.



In the transcript released by the Hankook Ilbo, when accountant Jeong Young-hak asked, "Would it be 500 million won or 5 billion won?", Kim mentioned their names again and answered that the total was 30 billion won.



Among them, Kwak Sang-do, a former lawmaker, is being investigated for receiving 5 billion won in the name of his son Byeong-chae's retirement pay, and the transcript also includes content supporting the relevant circumstances.



Mr. Kim also confessed to his concerns that he asked accountant Jeong, "Ex-Rep. Kwak asks for money through his son."



In addition, Mr. Kim expressed his intention to give a total of 2 billion won to two members of the Seongnam City Council, as well as his intention to give 10 billion won to Mr.



Kim Man-bae, who mentioned the real names of members of the 5 billion club, as well as those mentioned, deny the allegation of sending 5 billion won to be true.



[Kim Man-bae (October of last year): Various suspicions are due to the recording and editing intentionally by a specific person in the process of conflict over the distribution of profits.] In the



actual prosecution investigation, allegations other than former lawmaker Kwak, whose son's retirement money became a problem, were confirmed. There have been no cases that have led to a forced investigation.
