On the 21st, former President Moon Jae-in welcomed the announcement of the Presidential Security Service to strengthen the security of his sister-in-law in Pyeongsan Village, Yangsan, Gyeongsangnam-do.
In a phone call with the media on the same day, an official from Moon's side said, "The measures taken by the bodyguards are a good thing."
In a previous press announcement, the Ministry of Security and Public Security said, "We have expanded and redesignated the security area near the residence of former President Moon Jae-in." We will take action based on our judgment,” he said.
The existing security area was up to the fence of the private residence, but with this measure, the security area will be extended up to 300m from the fence.
Former President Moon Jae-in also expressed his hope that the Security Agency would strictly enforce this measure.
An official from the former president's side emphasized, "Just because the security zone is expanded does not mean that everything will be resolved."
The former President Moon's side has been complaining about the pain of the protests that have been going on for over three months, accompanied by abusive language and noise, after moving into his private residence.
On the 15th, during a long-term one-man protest in Pyeongsan Village, Mr. A threatened with insulting remarks to former President Moon and First Lady Kim Jeong-sook, who were walking with a bodyguard, and the next day, he was arrested for threatening others with a weapon.
