Candidate Dong-Hoon Han, the Attorney General's office, criticized the Democratic Party's harsh expression for pushing the bill while going to work at the hearing preparation team's office.

He neither admitted nor denied any question about the plan to operate the permanent special prosecutor.

Prosecutor Han Dong-hoon returned to Seocho-dong as a candidate for justice minister two years and three months after being demoted to the Busan High Prosecutors' Office from the head of the Anti-Corruption and Violence Department of the Supreme Prosecutor's Office. 



He criticized that if the 'check and close' law is enforced, strong criminals will not be punished even if they systematically commit crimes, which will lead to harm to the public.

Now, what has happened over the past 5 years to have such a pointless night escape?

When asked if there is a plan to operate a permanent special prosecutor in response to the deprivation of the prosecution's investigative authority, he did not close the possibility. 



[Han Dong-hoon / Candidate for Justice Minister: The permanent special prosecutor system is also one of the duties already granted to the Minister of Justice.

However, I promise that the work process will be fair and the same for everyone.] 



Concerned that the special prosecutors called 'Yun Seok-Yeol's division' might monopolize important positions, "Based on the will of the people who showed competence and fairness I will greet you in a fair way.” 



Kim & Chang, lawyer's wife, pointed out that there could be a conflict of interest with the work of the Minister of Justice. 



As the Office of the Attorney General's Hearing Preparation Team was set up at the Seoul High Prosecutor's Office, there was interest in whether a candidate would meet with Lee Seong-yoon, the chief of the Seoul High Prosecutor's Office, who had a bad relationship with the Channel A case, but Lee was indicted on charges of outside pressure to stop the investigation into the illegal withdrawal of Kim Hak-eui's former vice minister. He was unable to play a love song while attending his trial.
