A media organization said, "The appointment of KBS presidential candidate Park Jang-beom is invalid."

Media and civic groups argued that the KBS board's decision to decide anchor Park Jang-beom as the final candidate for KBS's next president was invalid.

The press chief's joint action held a press conference at the press center in Jung-gu, Seoul on the afternoon of the 24th and said that the person who reduced the case by saying the luxury bag Kim Gun-hee received was a "small pouch" became the presidential candidate.

These groups argued that seven directors of KBS' ruling party are not eligible to elect candidates for the next president, as the court ruled that the Korea Communications Commission's decision under the two-person system was illegal.

In addition, opposition directors filed an injunction against KBS to suspend the validity of the president's final nomination decision.
