In addition, the Democratic Party of Korea released a related recording, saying that Yoon Sang-hyun, a member of the People's Power, requested the foreign minister through Myung Tae-kyun shortly after the election of the president of Yoon Suk Yeol.
The Democratic Party explained that the recording was recorded in mid-March 2022 while Myung was on the phone with Kim Young-sun, a former lawmaker of the People's Power.
In the recording, Myung recommended Yoon to run for the floor leader election, but claimed that Yoon said, "I only trust you," referring to his history related to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Trade.
In response, Yoon told reporters at the National Assembly that he had never wanted a foreign minister and had negative thoughts on the Cabinet, dismissing it as a rumor.
