CEO Han Dong-hoon denied that he had ever hired anyone for money or managed the team, but the repercussions spread throughout the political world.
The opposition party, as well as former Land Minister Won Hee-ryong, strongly criticized Han's alleged operation of a comment team.

Based on the accuser's investigation, the police are expected to closely examine whether representative Han Dong-hoon has actually run a comment team and whether he can be charged with obstruction of business.
