Minister of Leisure and Tourism candidate personnel hearing
“Park Won-soon-Ogeo-don, power-type sex crime”
Candidate Jung said at a hearing on the National Assembly’s Women and Families Committee on the 24th, about Candidate Byun’s remarks, saying, “Women are very cautious about eating breakfast because of makeup.” However, when asked if candidate Byeon is eligible to become minister, he said, “It is difficult for me to answer.”
Candidate Jung drew attention, saying that it was inappropriate to perform the funeral of former Seoul Mayor Park Won-soon as mayor of Seoul. Candidate Jung replied, “From the standpoint of organizations supporting victims,” he replied, saying, “I don’t think it was appropriate to carry out the funeral procedure like that at the Seoul level.” They also agreed that it was an opportunity for the by-election in April next year, saying that it was a “power-type sex crime case” against the allegations of sexual harassment by Mayor Park and Mayor Oh Geo-don. He said, “I think it’s right to call the victim as a victim” to the point that the Ministry of Leisure and Home Affairs referred to the victim as a’victim complainant’ and did not stand on the victim’s side. Candidate Jung also replied, “I think it was a distorted coming-of-age ceremony” to the book by Tak Hyun-min, the Blue House protocol secretary, which was controversial over female derogatory remarks.
