◇Anchor> The deputy spokesperson previously said that he was showing the demand for attendance by the prosecution or police as a strategic response. However, some point out that President Yoon Suk Yeol may choose an investigative agency to attend because the investigative agencies are confused. How do you see this?

◆Kim Gi-heung> Rather than choosing, we are not investigating the existence of our own investigative agency, whether it is the prosecution, the police, or the Senior Civil Servant Corruption Investigations Unit. That's why, as some of the opposition parties are concerned, they are investigated more comfortably and advantageously because they were former prosecutors. That's definitely not the case. Didn't the opposition party say that? They say it is a hound of the regime, but the media says it has actually become a hyena from the public's point of view. Don't you think so because it seems like power has been tilted? From the prosecution's point of view, if the investigation is not done well this time, the Democratic Party of Korea will eliminate the prosecution organization itself, right? Then the organizational logic is strengthened very much. We need to protect it, and I don't think we will investigate too much and less to highlight our presence as an investigative agency through this investigation. However, from the president's point of view, there is an advantage when prosecuting. It's valid for 20 days when a warrant is issued. However, if you go to the prosecution, it will be on the 20th, but if you investigate the Senior Civil Servant Corruption Investigations Unit, you can do it on the 10th, and if you From that point of view, if you do it through your own defense logic, can't it be shorter to do it while you're in custody? I think we can use such a strategy.

◇ Anchor> We are investigating now with our fate at the risk of our fate. However, many of the Democratic Party of Korea say that since President Yoon was the head of the prosecution, it would be advantageous for President Yoon to go to the prosecution.

◆Park Sung-min> There has already been a lot of distrust in the prosecution, and this time, during the prosecution's investigation, there have been many doubts about whether it can even target President Yoon, so we have continued to raise such questions. However, the current situation clearly exists in the investigation even physically, and the suspects are rather advantageous because of overlapping investigations and competitive investigations. There is a point that you can shop for so-called investigative agencies, so I think we need to resolve this confusion quickly. So, if you look at it now, the investigation headquarters of the police, the Senior Civil Servant Corruption Investigations Unit, and the investigation headquarters of the Ministry of National Defense have been set up, and only the prosecution seems to be separated. Right now, the airlift is continuously requesting it. I'm asking the prosecution to transfer the case. Now, the police have transferred all the investigations related to President Yoon, and only the prosecution remains. I think the prosecution is also seriously considering it. The important part is that it can provide the suspect's defense logic, the current confusion of the investigation. Because even in the case of former Defense Minister Kim Yong-hyun, the prosecution does not have direct authority to investigate the crime of rebellion, and the defense logic is being conducted in this way, saying, "Isn't it illegal to collect evidence or investigation conducted like this?" There is a point like this, so I think it is essential to quickly transfer to the Senior Civil Servant Corruption Investigations Unit until the special prosecution is launched.
