A recently resurfaced news article revealing President Yoon Suk Yeol as the overseeing prosecutor in the early stages of the 'Burning Sun' scandal has sparked heated reactions from Korean netizens.
The article, originally published during the investigation, stated that the case had been assigned to the 3rd Criminal Division of the Seoul Central District Prosecutor’s Office, which Yoon Suk Yeol headed at the time.
This revelation has led to many netizens questioning Yoon Suk Yeol’s role in the investigation.
Korean netizens commented:
"I just found out."
"Hm... geez lol."
"Right, that’s why if you look at old posts on Instiz, there were some praise posts."
"Huh..? It fizzled out in the end, so why were there praise posts..?"
"At the time, people were posting things like, 'He's the prosecutor in charge of the Choi Soon Sil Gate investigation, so please expose everything. We believe in you ' — all without even knowing who he really was."
"This topic resurfaced once before, but it was on Twitter, not here."
"Meanwhile, people kept saying Yoon (President Yoon Suk Yeol) had no criminal record or whatever. It’s hilarious. Why wouldn’t he have one?"
"1 year and 6 months of defeat…"
"They should’ve asked for a heavier sentence. His fans are still acting up, and he’s still going abroad and mentioning BB (Big Bang), which seriously pisses me off."
"During Yoon Suk Yeol's time as prosecutor general, he went hard on the Nth Room case punishments, lol. Let's have a drink."
"No wonder it all ended in such a wishy-washy way, lol."
