The National Assembly's parliamentary audit of the Korea Communications Commission was followed by questions about YTN, which the Korea Communications Commission approved for privatization.

However, controversy is expected as claims that are different from the actual facts are raised through the mouth of the Democratic Party of Korea lawmakers.

Rep. Lee Hoon-ki of the Democratic Party criticized YTN's privatization approval during a parliamentary audit of the Korea Communications Commission, pointing to YTN's specific business as the harm of privatization.

After privatization, YTN, a reporting channel, opened a mobile coupon business, and the "Timev incident" caused 12.3 billion won in losses, causing enormous consumer damage.

[Lee Hoon-ki / Minjoo Party member: YTN is the seventh largest (Timev) gift certificate company with the highest amount of unpaid bills. I'm doing this because the news channel YTN that Bo Jung-young used to do is privatized and almost privatized.]

However, the project began to be reviewed at the end of last year and was signed in February this year through management just before privatization, so it was found that it had nothing to do with privatization.

In particular, YTN explained that there was no damage to consumers due to the 12.3 billion won "unsettled payment."

As Timon has already sold the coupon to consumers and Timon has not settled the price of the coupon that the consumer has completed using to YTN, only YTN has suffered a complete loss.

The congressman also claimed that after the Timef crisis, YTN notified consumers to cancel their coupons and get a refund on their own,
It was explained that
YTN informed us of further damage from unused coupons, and that it also took some direct refund measures.

The National Assembly also criticized that YTN, which deals with Myung Tae-kyun, a key figure in Kim Gun-hee's alleged intervention in the nomination, has a small amount of coverage.

The Democratic Party said there were only seven cases from the 5th to the 13th of last month when suspicions were raised, but

In fact, there were eight reports alone, excluding short articles, broadcasts, and appearances, and

Due to the nature of the 24-hour reporting channel, the number of episodes exceeded 60 with only 8 reports.

The National Assembly's duty to check and monitor government ministries and public institutions is also important, but
Some point out that if the issue is not raised based on
clear facts, the weight of the parliamentary audit itself may be reduced.
