Former Daegu Mayor Hong Joon-pyo said on the 28th, when former President Yoon Suk-yeol is being investigated in the special prosecution for insurrection, "The former president, who is under investigation by the special prosecution, is accused of various corruption charges during his tenure."
On the same day, Hong noted on Facebook, "Since liberation, five presidents have been investigated and punished after leaving office," adding, "It's truly embarrassing and shameful."
He continued, "All five were representatives of the Korean conservative camp," and asked, "Can the Korean conservative camp regain the trust of the people without a revolutionary innovation?"
Regarding former President Yoon, he said, "He is a former Prosecutor General who imprisoned Lee Myung-bak and Park Geun-hye at the behest of the Moon Jae-in administration," adding, "If he loses the election, it will not only be the end for the Yoon couple but also for the Korean conservative camp, which I warned about two months ago during the primary election."
He added, "I resent those who ruined the election with fraudulent primaries."
