The National Assembly's Gender Equality and Family Committee's parliamentary audit of the Ministry of Gender Equality and Family found that the minister had been vacant for more than eight months.
The opposition party argued that a resolution should be issued calling for the appointment of a minister as soon as possible, saying that the neighborhood bankbook or the head of the Dong is not left empty for this long.
On the other hand, the ruling party defended the ruling and opposition party floor leaders to wait and see the results as they were negotiating a package of amendments to the Government Organization Act and the appointment of ministers.
It has been pointed out that the Ministry of Gender Equality and Family's response to the recent incident of an American YouTuber's travesty of the Peace Girl Statue has been lukewarm.
After showing a video of the YouTuber kissing the girl statue, the opposition party urged measures to prevent damage and regularize the fact-finding survey, saying that they do nothing even with national insults.
In response, Vice Minister of Gender Equality and Family Shin Young-sook said, "We recognize the seriousness of the problem, and if there is anything to be done, such as improving social awareness, we will faithfully implement it."
