This man ...... The control is still there.
South Korean President Yoon Suk-yeol
On May 13, 2024, the Ministry of Justice appointed and dismissed 39 prosecutors from the Supreme Prosecutors' Office. According to the new personnel arrangement, Song Kang-ho, chief prosecutor of the Seoul Central District Prosecutor, was appointed chief prosecutor of the Busan Supreme Prosecutor, and Lee Chang-so, chief prosecutor of the Jeonju District Prosecutor, was appointed chief prosecutor of the Seoul Central District Prosecutor.

This personnel arrangement was only 10 days after the Seoul Central District Prosecutors' Office set up a special task force to investigate and handle the "Kim Jian-hee case of accepting brand-name bags."
The "Kim Jian-hee case of accepting brand-name bags" occurred in September 2022, and the video was exposed in November 2023.
The opposition parties have repeatedly demanded an explanation from Yoon, but both Yoon and Kim have remained silent on the matter. It wasn't until February this year that Yoon Suk-yeol spoke out for the first time, insisting that it was an elaborate conspiracy and that his wife was not ruthless enough to refuse the other party's gift. He added that we need to draw the line more clearly to ensure that this kind of thing doesn't happen again. After that, Yoon Suk-yeol never mentioned Kim Jianxi's receipt of brand-name bags, and Kim Jianxi did not show up as early as the end of December 2023.
In April 2024, Yoon Suk-yeol's ruling party suffered a crushing defeat in the parliamentary election, and he became the first president to be the first president of the "Asano Dai" during his term of office. This is clearly against President Yoon Suk-yeol's wishes.
On May 2, 2024, after hearing the latest information on the case of "First Lady" Kim Keon-hee's acceptance of a brand-name bag, South Korea's Attorney General Lee Won-seok issued instructions to the Seoul Central District Prosecutors' Office, which is in charge of investigating the case, to form a special investigation team to conduct an investigation, and to conduct a prompt and thorough investigation based on evidence and law to find out the truth.
On May 9, 2024, at the national report and press conference on the second anniversary of his inauguration, Yoon Suk-yeol apologized to the people for his wife, Kim Keon-hee, for accepting a brand-name bag. This is his first apology for Kim Jianxi's acceptance of brand-name bags, and it is also an unusual apology, indicating that he also believes that Jin Jianxi has done something wrong.
However, Yoon Suk-yeol expressed his opposition to the Kim Keon-hee Independence Prosecution Act, which was pushed forward by the opposition parties. The case corresponding to the "Kim Jianxi Independent Procuratorate Law" is the "case of Kim Jianxi suspected of manipulating the stock price of Deutsche Automotive", which is also investigated by the Seoul Central District Prosecutor's Office.
The "Kim Keon-hee manipulation of the stock price of Deutsche Automotive" will only be investigated after the "Kim Keon-hee Special Prosecution Act" bill takes effect, but the bill was rejected by President Yoon Suk-yeol on January 5, 2024, and sent back to the National Assembly, so there is no further information so far, so the investigation into Kim Keon-hee's stock price manipulation has not yet begun.
With the overwhelming victory of the opposition parties in the National Assembly election, it is believed that the bill of "Kim Keon-hee's Special Prosecutor" will soon be sent to President Yoon Suk-yeol for signature. Yoon Suk-yeol's opposition does not mean that the bill of "Kim Jian Hee's Special Prosecution Law" will not be sent to him, nor does it mean that he can not sign it. Under the tremendous offensive of the dominant opposition party, sooner or later he will not be able to withstand the pressure and sign the contract.
Just when people thought that Kim Keon-hee would be convicted and Yoon Suk-yeol would not escape the "Blue House curse", the prosecutor was replaced - the task force was only established for 10 days.
So fast! Suddenly it's a replacement! There must be something wrong.
Yoon Suk-yeol is a prosecutor by training, he began to work as a prosecutor in 1994, became a prosecutor at the Seoul Central District Prosecutor's Office in 1999, transferred to the Busan District Prosecutor's Office in 2001, became a lawyer in 2002, returned to the prosecutorial team in 2003 as a prosecutor at the Gwangju District Prosecutor's Office, and has been in the prosecutorial system since then until March 4, 2021.
Since 2016, Yoon Suk-yeol has served as the head of the independent investigation team of Park Geun-hye's "cronies", and has done a good job, earning him the reputation of "national prosecutor" and being promoted by Moon Jae-in to the head of the Seoul Central District Prosecutor's Office in May 2017. Yoon Suk-yeol continued to excel in his position as head of the Seoul Central District Prosecutor's Office, detaining another former president, Lee Myung-bak, and being promoted to South Korea's attorney general by Moon Jae-in in June 2019.
On June 29, 2021, Yoon Suk-yeol announced his candidacy for the 2022 South Korean presidential election, which is why he left the prosecution system. It was his vigorous performance in supervising the cases of two former presidents that gave him the popularity he needed to run for president of South Korea, and he was successfully elected president of South Korea.
On May 10, 2022, Yoon Suk-yeol was inaugurated as the president of South Korea, and since then, he has given more than ten high-ranking officials to his cronies, and these cronies and cronies of his can be said to be intertwined.
Yoon Suk-yeol has been deeply involved in the procuratorial system for many years, and it is inevitable that his influence will touch the entire procuratorial system and even the entire South Korean Ministry of Justice.
What is the relationship between Lee Chang-so and Yoon Suk-yeol? I can't find any information, but we can look for clues from Yoon Suk-yeol's opponents. Just after the announcement of the appointments and dismissals of the South Korean Ministry of Justice, the largest opposition party issued a harsh criticism, pointing out that Lee Chang-so was a close confidant of Yoon Suk-yeol.
From my personal point of view, the change of the prosecutor general sends a signal that Yoon Suk-yeol's control over the procuratorial system and the Ministry of Justice is still there, and Kim Keon-hee will be fine, and those who want to see them unlucky will probably have to wait patiently.
Finally, let's talk about the latest situation of Yoon Suk-yeol's mother-in-law, Choi Eun-soon. She was released on parole on May 14, 2024, more than two months earlier than her original release date of July 20.

It turned out to be like this: On May 8, 2024, the Ministry of Justice of South Korea held a meeting of the Parole Review Committee, and the committee unanimously agreed that Choi Eun-soon met the conditions for parole, and Minister of Justice Park Sung-jae approved the decision on May 9, 2024, so that he could be released on May 14, 2024. South Korea's Ministry of Justice said that although Choi Eun-soon initially did not want to be released on parole, the decision was ultimately made to grant parole based on her sentence, age and health.
It's really ...... to get her out of prison early and reluctantly make it difficult for her to get out of prison Who made her the president's mother-in-law? Yoon Suk-yeol still has this bit of control, otherwise who would be vying to be president?
